REMIX WATCH: Scary Mary
Last year I saw the stage version of Disney’s Mary Poppins in London. The show was pretty lame but it did have this really weird trip out sequence where all these creepy toys come to life and terrorize the children. I haven’t actually ever seen the original Mary Poppins but it seems the story works best as horror.
Scary Mary is right up there with Shining and Brokeback to the Future. The Technicolor quality of the film footage and the iconic image of Mary floating through the air are particularly hilarious against the scary music; however, its Mary’s Exorcist style 360 degree head spin that really sells it.
