3.0 out of 5 stars Not as good as the 1977 book - but that was a brilliant comic strip, 2 Jan 2007
By Keith Joseph (West Berkshire, England) - See all my reviews
(TOP 100 REVIEWER)      
This TV series is quite different to the excellent Raymond Briggs book. The book hasn't got a real storyline, being more like an comic strip encyclopedia on the life of Bogeymen (Fungus) and bogeywomen (wife Mildew) and their bogeychildren. The book just charts a day in life of a bogeyman, who it seems, exists merely to torment us 'Drycleaners'. Briggs illustrated study of bogeydom delights in all things revolting, putrid, and lavatorial, and even raises deep questions on the meaning of Bogeydom life. However considering the TV serial has a lot of live action as well as animated bogeys, it works very well in terms of visual quality. The only weak aspect is that the storyline is a bit poor and there just aren't enough visual and literary gags compared the book, e.g. in the book hidden on Mildrew's bathroom shelf there's 'FemStench' perfume which is real Eau de Toilete (toilet water).

This TV series runs into three 40 minute episodes and is probably just too long overall - it's simply not revolting enough, and worst still it's just a bit dull despite the good actors and visuals. So if I had to chose, it would be the original 38 page 1977 Fungus the Bogeyman illustrated [Picture Puffin] book every time - it's also a fair bit cheaper than the DVD and would be great for any kid over 7 - boys might go for it at an earlier age. However once you get to know the book, this TV series becomes far more tolerable, and worth renting or perhaps buying if very cheap. It's just that you get the feeling, as with many CGI dominated programs, sometimes they spend less attention on the storyline and script compared to the visuals.

3.0 out of 5 stars Read book first., 7 Oct 2005
By A Customer
I hadn't read the book, but rented this film because of the book's rave reviews. Then discovered that my 7 year old grandson had seen it on TV a year or two ago, loved it and had asked his Mum to get it for him! So it was with quite a lot of excitement that he looked forward, as I did, of seeing it again. However, I found that it wasn't long before he was bored, and actually mentioned that there were parts that had bored him before. And as for me? I found half the time I wasn't sure what was going on and the rest of the time I found it quite repetitive and boring. Couldn't help feeling that it might have been different if we had already read the book and identified with the characters. I'm giving it 3 stars because of my grandson's earlier response to seeing it the first time round.
