Product Information

Opening with a quote from Lewis Carroll's classic nonsensical poem, Terry Gilliam's JABBERWOCKY is a darkly comic medieval masterpiece about a monster wreaking havoc on helpless villages. Michael Palin stars as Dennis Cooper, a happy-go-lucky ne'er-do-well stock taker who becomes the unlikely hero in a castle's efforts to defeat the great green beast. The unwitting and pathetic Dennis is in love with Griselda, the farthest thing from a classic princess heroine that film has ever seen. However, she wants nothing to do with Dennis, who is renounced by his father on his deathbed, setting him off on a hysterical adventure that winds up with him facing off against the monster itself. The jousting scenes are particularly funny--and very gruesome, lending the film its seriocomic tone that had the audience somewhat baffled at first, although it's now much loved. The film is a brilliant parody of medieval epics, featuring lavish costumes, a medieval score, and terrific sets. Monty Python regulars Terry Jones and Neil Innes make cameo appearances, as does director Gilliam himself.

  • the dark ages on display. Terry does a great job of depicting the reality of the world as it was. See how much we've grown in a thousand years, or

    Very Good

  • How could the Pythons be so dull?

    It's hard to believe how humorless this follow-up to Monty Python and the Holy Grail is. The entire troupe didn't participate, but director Terry Gilliam and a couple of the other members still manage to snatch tedium from the jaws of what should have been farce. The production is notable only as an example of how even the most talented people can sometimes come up with a dud.

  • Average at best

    While there are some moments of mirth, the movie is mostly a plodding tale that never grabs the audience. The only thing that stands out in this movie is its mediocrity. Even die hard Monty Python fans should be warned.

  • A Monty Python Collection real gem!

    I had this movie in my collection before but needed to find it again. It's such a great movie from the Monty Python collection. A rare gem

  • Classic Terry Gilliam

    This is a great, weird little film, and right now nobody is streaming it. Be aware, though, that while it is Pythonesque in places, and a number of the guys appear in it, it is NOT a Monty Python movie. Nor does it have much to do with Through the Looking Glass, so don’t expect Alice to show up. And while it is rated PG, it contains a fair amount of sex, violence, scatological humor (people are constantly relieving themselves on or near the hero), and nudity. All that being said, I really enjoyed it.

  • Required viewing for all Monty Python fans

    Life of Brian and Holly Grail are better. However, I would consider this a must see movie for all aspiring Monty Python fans.
