Cor blimey Cobber! I almost forgot about Dot and the Kangeroo! As you can probably tell I'm from the UK, I remember this being on a fair bit when I was young. It always reminded me of an aussie version of the water babies, as it had a similar animation look and vibe and what do you know, there are links to that in the side bar! Well..if you can get over a talking kangeroo I suppose anythings possible.
FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK. WHY AM I WATCHING THIS...my mum always says "ur grandma was a sick woman, Em." she used to prepare this scene for when you kids visited and she'd sit you on the couch with a hot chocolate, put the tv on and the bunyip song would play...and more times than not, you'd spill the hot chocolate all over you" yup..thats good ol' mim.
I cannot help thinking of this song as what a prehistoric Australian tribe of people trying to get their heads around the concept of what probably was the local alpha predator, chasing them every night and savagely mauling and devouring their children whenever it could, and them being of course unable to catch a clear view of the beast they would only naturally regard as a monster or demon.
@stalwartarjuna You mean Diprotodon, ptff Na there vegetarion mate, Although they could be dangerous if provoked or startled, and they may have had a little swim in the water so just think of them as the Australian equivalent to hippos or rhinos.
But Thylacoleo was Carnivores, sometimes called Marsupial Lion for it's cat-like build though it was more of a leopard than a lion.
Scared the hell out of me when I was a kid. So showed it to my son now that he was the same age, figuring in the new age of internet, 3D and such it wouldn't bother him. Nope, scared the shit out of him too.
I was more frightened of the air conditioner committing suicide in Brave Little Toaster than I was of this...only really got a bit freaked if there was a thunderstorm soon after..and there is a thunderstorm now...great.
I was scared of the Bunyip myself when I saw this years ago at my grandma's house. But, thanks to Charmed and the Internet, I learned a little more about this thing, and the fact that it only lives in Australia, so I'm only a little scared of this. So stop worrying, you guys.
@PokeFan10025 Then here's some advice: learn, study, and practice witchcraft, like me, or move to someplace super populated, like a city. If you choose magick, you can keep the Bunyip at bay. If you choose to move to the city, the Bunyip won't follow. Either way, you'll be just fine. Blessed Be.
@princeoffreaks203 is it ok being in a quiet place? near Arndale this shop where Coles,and woolies are? I mean like sometimes there some loud cars and barking going on..
@PokeFan10025 As long as it's not too quiet. In the scary movies, when the ominous silence is over, that's when the scary stuff happens. If you live in someplace hot, leave the fan on all night.
yup... guess i came here for the same reason.. to see if i was still scared stiff by this song.... still gives me the creeps.... I hated this song so much as a kid cos it was soo scary!!!
This song used to terrify me. I wasn't scared of anything as a child, except for this. I find it concerning that this was what they used to call children's programming.
I also was scared of this song and had nightmares about this song and scene. I loved the animation of the Dreamtime drawings, but the whole mood and the bunyip itself terrified me as kid.
Creepiest thing i've ever seen in my life. i watched dot and the kangaroo when i was at my nans house AGES back, and then about 2 years after i went to australia (my dad was in the olympics). We were on the beach and i swear i looked up and saw it, in the sky. I'm scared right now thinking about it.
@raiindog1 Oh god....where kids could see it? I watched it my freshman year of highschool and that shit seriously made me afraid to go near my rabbit for a week.
After looking for this for about 25 years since I last saw the movie, and I have no shame in saying this still freaks me out. Not as bad as when I was 6, but this still gives me nightmares, probably should have left it alone instead of refreshing my memory lol.
I've seriously been dreaming about this scene for years! Decades! Have only remembered fragments. Today I woke up and typed "Australian cave scary animation monster@ into Google Search and found it in about ten mi
I cannot even tell you how much this song scared the shit out of me. I was scared of this for Years, literally Years. I had so many nightmares and I will never forget this song because I would run and hide under my blanket and just be like O.O , Even today it still gives me a shiver.
@AmazingGalaxy lols I saw this when I was three 1993. It scared the crap out of me, so I watched camel boy instead. Toddlers of the early 90's in australia
When I was young,I sayed too myself "This isnt scary!" until....2:59 I was like "OMG! A werid headed bold---AHHH!!!" gee,When I watch this again the childhood crepperness comes back =.=" gee,thats freakycreppy
So you better come home quickly, and you better hide very soon, or the Bunyip's going to get you, in the Bunyip moon.
The Bunyip's always nasty, and the Bunyip's very mean, it's the most unpleasant monster, that you have ever seen.
So you better come home quickly, and you better hide very soon, or the Bunyip's going to get you, in the Bunyip moon...In the moon...In the moon...In the moon...
Why the hell did the animators think this was appropriate for young children???? Im 30 and just looked this up and felt instantly uncomfortable deep inside
@envy00100 I have no idea, it still don't like seeing it. And I haven't forgotten about it. In all honest the Bunyip still frightens me. This video is just creepy. He's everywhere too. The moon, the fire, the bushes. I just...I don't know what could of made them think this was child appropriate.
On second thought I've repressed this memory and now that I have rediscovered it at age 37 I can say with confidence The Bunyip and this song ruined my life. Thanks HBO
On second thought I've repressed this memory and now taht I have rediscovered it at age 37 I can say with confidence The Bunyip and this song ruined my life. Thanks HBO
I used to watch this move on HBO in the early 1980s when I was around 8 years old. I am 38 now and this part still creeps me out. This always scared the hell out of me and I had nightmares after watching this.
@breaksh1t Me too. Its one of those things you only discover years later when you are in therapy. Thanks HBO for screwing up my fragile 8 year old psyche!!! LOL
Like everyone else here this bit freaked the shit out of me when I saw it as a kid. Haunting piano, a freaky wobbly drawing and an Australian monster with a bizarre name = scarey time.
I am SO glad that i'm not the only one who this video creeps out. I used to watch this as a kid with my younder sister, and i'd leave the room when this part of the movie came on. It still freaks me out, and i only watched half of it just now...... too creepy :S
At the age of 6 my little brother and i saw this on TV, well half of it from behind the sofa.............This is a childhood changing nightmare of a video!
16 years later and i can't believe that scared me!
This scared the crap out of me as a kid...and even though I hadn't seen it for years the memory of it scared me until I was like..20 lol. Watching it now, it is STILL scary! Who even thought of making this!!
@mouse264 I'm not sure which is worse, being affected by this toon as a child or later in life. When I thought I was over that possibility, I watched Watership Down for the first time since I was three and was absolutely traumatized. Wouldn't have been so bad if I wasn't 24 years old when that happened ;p
I saw this wonderful movie when I was 8 or 9 and it remained in my heart forever. As I have always been fond of creepy scenes, this was my favourite one in the whole film.
@ajbarish Thank you! Its weird all these people saying this was the scene in the movie that scared them. I think it's beautiful. There were a few things in this movie that I thought were scary when I was very little but this scene was never one of them! Lol.
I used to be so creeped out by this when I was little! Thinking of it kind of creeps me out now too. But it was only the slow parts, and when they didn't show the actual Bunyip (their silly cartoonization wasn't scary at all xD). The cave paintings and the people were scarier. I used to be scared by hieroglyphs when I was younger too, because I would always think of the mysterious dead people from thousands of years ago who had written them.
This bit of the film used to literally terrorize me as a child. It's funny how we remember things, because now watching it, I still get chills down my back and it still creeps me out!
Best part of the movie! It never scared me, although I thought it was very cool and remember this scene most. I grew up to be a horror movie buff, so no surprise I would like this part best....
I used to get this song stuck in my head EVERY single time I watched this movie, and then I'd get in trouble for humming it because it scared the crap out of my younger sister. XD
Thanks for sharing this. I never knew exactly what the "Bunyip Moon" he's singing about at the end was, but it still used to scare the flip out of me. Great childhood memory.
IS there an AA for Bunyip abuse? This part scared the piss out of me. Wondering when i would ever meet up with the Bunyip agian. Now all i can do is watch this video. I know why it scared me.. The combination of the real footage shots and the cartoon make you think.. Then all of a sudden The Bunyip is looking for you, and you have know Idea what to do, But JUST RUN!!!!!!
how do i get an audio clip of this. it would make my cousins dreams come true lol i cant find even a SNIPPIT of this song anywhere online...anyone know...?
@flippin41 There's not a specific place you can get it that I know of, but I downloaded something that allows you to YouTube videos to .mp3. It's free and put out by DVDVideosoft. I wouldn't recommend converting this video as there may be one or two other Bunyip clips on YouTube with smoother audio... all though this one could still have the best volume. Not sure.
I also use the (free) and.com downloader that let's you download videos from YouTube and a bunch of other sites to your computer.

I am SO glad that i'm not the only one who this video creeps out. I used to watch this as a kid with my younder sister, and i'd leave the room when this part of the movie came on. It still freaks me out, and i only watched half of it just now...... too creepy :S

@mouse264 I'm not sure which is worse, being affected by this toon as a child or later in life. When I thought I was over that possibility, I watched Watership Down for the first time since I was three and was absolutely traumatized. Wouldn't have been so bad if I wasn't 24 years old when that happened ;p

I saw this wonderful movie when I was 8 or 9 and it remained in my heart forever. As I have always been fond of creepy scenes, this was my favourite one in the whole film.

@ajbarish Thank you! Its weird all these people saying this was the scene in the movie that scared them. I think it's beautiful. There were a few things in this movie that I thought were scary when I was very little but this scene was never one of them! Lol.

I used to be so creeped out by this when I was little! Thinking of it kind of creeps me out now too. But it was only the slow parts, and when they didn't show the actual Bunyip (their silly cartoonization wasn't scary at all xD). The cave paintings and the people were scarier. I used to be scared by hieroglyphs when I was younger too, because I would always think of the mysterious dead people from thousands of years ago who had written them.

It's Aboriginal folklore. It makes about as much sense as any other religion.

This bit of the film used to literally terrorize me as a child. It's funny how we remember things, because now watching it, I still get chills down my back and it still creeps me out!

@AlexB1001 Same here. I saw this once, in Colorado, as a 10 year old, and have never been able to forget the bunyip.

Best part of the movie! It never scared me, although I thought it was very cool and remember this scene most. I grew up to be a horror movie buff, so no surprise I would like this part best....

I used to get this song stuck in my head EVERY single time I watched this movie, and then I'd get in trouble for humming it because it scared the crap out of my younger sister. XD

if this didn't bother you as a child, then you grew up as hard as a coffin nail. For me? it's something I wish I could disinvent.

Thanks for sharing this. I never knew exactly what the "Bunyip Moon" he's singing about at the end was, but it still used to scare the flip out of me. Great childhood memory.

IS there an AA for Bunyip abuse? This part scared the piss out of me. Wondering when i would ever meet up with the Bunyip agian. Now all i can do is watch this video. I know why it scared me.. The combination of the real footage shots and the cartoon make you think.. Then all of a sudden The Bunyip is looking for you, and you have know Idea what to do, But JUST RUN!!!!!!

how do i get an audio clip of this. it would make my cousins dreams come true lol i cant find even a SNIPPIT of this song anywhere online...anyone know...?
flippin41 1 year ago
@flippin41 There's not a specific place you can get it that I know of, but I downloaded something that allows you to YouTube videos to .mp3. It's free and put out by DVDVideosoft. I wouldn't recommend converting this video as there may be one or two other Bunyip clips on YouTube with smoother audio... all though this one could still have the best volume. Not sure.
I also use the (free) and.com downloader that let's you download videos from YouTube and a bunch of other sites to your computer.
