The Hugga Bunch (1985)

Recommended Posts

This movie scarred me as a child, but shaped me as a human being.

 

Grandma is being "put out to pasture" and dolls travel through mirrors? This was my first horror movie.

Supposedly, at the time of release, it was the most expensive TV special ever produced.

 

It's extremely difficult to find a good copy, but it's available to watch on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jl3-c5v_-Rc

This movie came out when I was four and I watched it religiously as I had the dolls. It was happy, sad, terrifying, and traumatic all in one.

"The Hugga Bunch (1985) 48min | Family, Fantasy | TV Movie 19 June 1985. A girl travels through her mirror into HuggaLand to find a way to keep her grandmother, the only one who knows how to hug, young." - IMDB

I was four when this came out and I loved it. I thought it was fun, cute, funny, scary, and overall depressing. Even I at four knew something was afoot and odd about the villain scene. Pretty sure I still own this on Beta, as my dad will still argue, to this very day, that Beta was the wave of the future and is better than VHS. This can only be seen on YouTube.
