Legend of Lizzie Borden: The Ending Sequence

[rickyrpcampeador]

I just learned that Elizabeth Montgomery was somehow related to Lizzie Borden.

[nursebrittany]

@ManaTatsuX omg that music!!

[MyCrazySalem]

Interesting I watch Psyhic Kids - season 3 episode 20 on tv today. Two teenage psyhic said it was NOT Lizzie Borden. It was a MAN .

[MyTwoCentsAreFree]

Elizabeth Montgomery was distantly related to Lizzie Borden.

[KrystleDallasRose]

@MyTwoCentsAreFree Lizzie Borden was also related to Prime Minister Borden of Canada , who was the PM during WW1.

[mnakvi101]

i have a new nick name for lizzie. Lizzie-Bean, lol

[garganrose]

their is somthing a little oj about lizzie borden.

[JamJam2014]

OH MY GOD! I'm a major Elizabeth Montgomery fan and well I've recently became a Who's the boss fan and I just realized that Katherine Helmond plays Emma! OMFG? FREAK COINCIDENCE? Think of how similar Bewitched and Who's the boss are?? well kinda... You learn something new everyday.

[taffysaur]

@JamJam2014 bewitched > who's teh boss. at least teh ones w/dick york.

oh lizzie, you can split my skull open anytime sweetheart <3

[JamJam2014]

@taffysaur haha. I agree

[SteveLLW]

Another (more plausible) theory points a finger at Emma Borden as the real murderer with Lizzie as an accessory. I think the theory has merit, certainly enough for further investigation.

[hithr3000]

...then came the spinoff series in which tony danza moves in and becomes their maid!

[JamJam2014]

@hithr3000 lol nice. I love Who's the Boss!

[MJRookieRook]

I love that song ... I'm afraid now

[RobotMice]

holy shit as a child this scence gave me nightmare

[fluffybunny300]

IT WASN'T AN AXE IT WAS A HATCHET

[garganrose]

@fluffybunny300 we know but try working hatchet into the rhyme.

[Deepdesert]

I liked how the ending left it open whether she ever admitted it or not

[dizzardwizard]

Is it me or is that a very slight nod around 1:27, in response to the sister's question?

[Potpotpotcrazy123]

Elizabeth Montgomery! OH MY GOD. That song is stuck in my head, as is the movie. It was such a shock to see cute, sweet Samantha playing a murderess, but I must admit, she did an excellent job. People, if you haven't seen the whole movie, watch it! I am absolutely fascinated by this story now and am hoping to get more info on it. The mystery is still there, because no evidence has ever been found, but my heart tells me it was Lizzie.

[LaShea69]

@Potpotpotcrazy123 What I don't get is that the song is also a jump-rope rhyme. Why would little girls wanna jump to that song is beyond me...

[LoveRobertAndKirsten]

bloody hell !!

[JenniferFan21]

Elizabeth Montgomery and Lizzie Borden WERE cousins. Someone researched it after EM had passed away.

[Griff1319]

I wish they released this on DVD.......

[meora1]

Elizabeth Montogomery looks alot like the real Lizzie Borden. They even share a name. Freaky!

[MJRookieRook]

OHHHHHHHHH SHITTTTTT !!!! I GOTTA SEE THIS FROM THE BEGINNING !! That song is creepy...I was lookin over my shoulder for awhile hahaha

[Natty30stm]

@MJRookieRook lmfaaao i died laughin at this

[MJRookieRook]

@Natty30stm

This song is scary...especially when kids sings stuff like this but it is pretty funny

[enochsneed]

Note "Did you kill father?" Never mind about poor old stepmother.

[gotch09]

Lizzie had ice water in her veins instead of blood.

[SherryBirkinFan227]

the song at the end with the children singing is creepy

[southernangel530]

i saw on a geneology that elizabeth montgomery was lizzie borden's 6th cousin removed

[emilyculleln2010]

Man the ending song is very creepy!  *shiver*

[AlecinMD]

I remember this film when I was a kid just wish it would come out on DVD .

[gotch09]

Wasn't the entire film on YOUTUBE? Why isn't it anymore? If it isn't why was it yanked? If it's still on YOUTUBE how can I go about finding it again?

[SherryBirkinFan227]

@gotch09 it is on youtube i can give you the video

[ragtimeacres]

This is a great film and you can get the complete version from Loving the Classics

[zooeyhall]

My great-grandmother told me that when she was little her friends would skip rope to that song.

[jimmyhd1969]

Lizzie borden aquital could be due to the jury feeling that her folks axed for it!

[kaseleh333]

sound?

[sdavenport1981]

Elizabeth Montgomery was much prettier than Lizzie

[themaynooth1]

believe it or not elizabeth is a sixth cousin to lizzie borden, if u dont believe look it up

[sdavenport1981]

I believe you.

[HouseOnSunset]

@sdavenport1981 True, but she was the right age and build and her acting was top-notch!

[JamJam2014]

@HouseOnSunset all of Elizabeth Montgomery's acting was top notch. She scared me to death in this one. You almost start to forget it's her.

[6renardfox6]

Lizzy Borden is an awesome hair metal band dude! Sunset Strip ftw!

[hollywoodartchick]

Totally nice guy, too.

[RidingQueen101]

can anyone upload the whole movie?

[gotch09]

How can I pull up the entire movie. I saw it years ago, and would like to see it again.

[gotch09]

I heard Elizabeth did this role to get away from Samantha. She did a good job.

[Matto2t]

@gotch09

I believe you're right. When Bewitched ended its run in 1972, Elizabeth wanted to do other roles to distance herself from that program. She had done two movies in 1974, A Case of Rape and Mrs. Sundance. The Legend of Lizzie Borden, which came out in 1975, was, I assume, her third movie after Bewitched's end.

[gotch09]

@Matto2t I wonder how I can upload or view the last episode of Bewitched. Any ideas?

[JamJam2014]

@gotch09 She did just about all her roles to get away from Samantha lol. She was tired of being known as Goody 2 shoes. She also like throwing curve balls at the people.

[twain103]

@gotch09 She did a GREAT job!!! I thought at the end she said, "I did not".

[gotch09]

@twain103 That's what I thought she said. Anyhoo, I liked her in Bewitched. I like her here, she just does a spooky job.

[twain103]

@gotch09 Elizabeth Montgomery OWNED the 1970's with her made-for-tv movies: Lizzie , A Case O f Rape, Mrs.

Sundance,etc. I loved her in The Twilight Zone,"Two" (never uttered a word) with the equally great ,Charles Bronson!

[twain103]

@gotch09 Emma asked Lizzie in the beginning and she then replied ""No Emma I did not".I have'nt seen this movie on tv in years. They bore us to death with other movies,mostly bad.

[farmerne]

My great-grandmother told me that when she was  a little girl, kids would skip rope to this jingle.

[frantic1971]

"Emma! Emma! I'm home! Oh...nothing much happened today. Oh by the way, they left me off the hook for hatchetating Mother and Father."

[BewitchedFan3]

Cope1865 Liz didn't know they were cousins, and they were 6th cousin twice removed creepy huh. I really want to watch this movie

[prayupblessings]

In the Alfred Hitchcock episode, the younger sister admitted that she killed them...and tried to kill the older sister...the younger sister was then sent away.

[djbethell]

Wonder if she was sexually abused by her father and the mother did nothing?

[MJRookieRook]

Damn!! That's some creepy shit...especially that song...gotta see the whole thing

[naizret]

The jury found LB not guilty but that doesn't mean the crime remains 'unsolved.' Of course, she killed both her parents, and everyone in Fall River knew/knows it.

[BimboBoy84]

Looks great! Has this been released to DVD?

[Shepherdess]

This was one excellent movie. I watched it on TV when I was 11, back in 1975, and this part STILL makes my flesh crawl.

[LhalaluvzJanet]

Wow thats crazy Lizzie died when my grandmother was 5 years old.

[Pegbur]

@LhalaluvzJanet

My grandfather was 26 when Lizzie died.

[cope1865]

I just read the Elizabeth Montgomery was a distant cousin of Lizzie Borden. That's is pretty weird for her to play the part, wonder if she knew?

[gotch09]

@cope1865 Boy talk about not being able to pick your relatives!!

[JamJam2014]

@cope1865 She didn't know til many years after. They were 6th cousins.

[LizzieBorden9898]

:S YIKES!

[xdarkdaysx]

if thats the creepiest part this must really suck

[Potpotpotcrazy123]

@xdarkdaysx Hey! Come on man! This was like the 70's. What were you expecting? Watch the whole movie and you might change your mind. Oh, and listen to the song again. It truly is sick, because it says she gave her father one more slice with the axe. I think it was more personal.

[Coyote329]

Exceptional protrayal by the lead IMO. Probably, not true to the real story but Montgomery was perfection in her coldness and schematic rendition of dear Lizzie.

[svagrod]

@Coyote329 The last scene when she just has that glare is awesome.Best Poker Face around.What an actress.When I first seen this I was amazed she could act that well from just seeing her in a comedy WOW What a range!!! Hollywood missed out on not making Big screen movies with her but oh-well she was great on t.v.

[farmerne]

You are sooo right. Elizabeth Montgomery in this movie is a far cry from her "Bewitched" cuteness.

[pegleg747]

Borden was actually completely ostracized for the rest of her life; she lived in luxury, but isolation.

If you like this film, check out the short version A. Hitchcock made for "Alfred H. Presents;" I forget the name of the episode, but it was really clever!

[tsmith01220]

This is nothing. The Lizzie Bordon murder has nothing on The Marsden Murders which were a devil cult in FR who killed many, many people - read Mortal Remains.

[NinePlanetzFilmz2]

will someone please uplaod this movie again so that i can download it to my computer with youtube download.

[JeessiieeeLovesYou]

i wanna watch the whole movie, anyone know where i can find it?

[jorysmomma]

From what I understand, Elizabeth Montgomery and Lizzie Borden were related. Sixth cousins once removed or something like that. I wonder if Elizabeth knew she was playing her own cousin?

[007pinebluff]

why did all the lizzie borden videos disappear off youtube.....can't find them

[adfg]

casting the sweet lovable perky star of Bewitched as Lizzie Borden was a great casting choice.

[bijeto]

"Lizzie Borden took an ax and gave her mother forty whacks,- When she saw what she had done, gave her father forty-one... "Chilling

[XoPINKLUVRoX]

im related to lizzie borden because my great grandma is the infamous emma borden...i know it was lizzie it had to be!

[NinePlanetzFilmz2]

really.

[gotch09]

@XoPINKLUVRoX I thought Lizzie and Emma both died old spinisters and childless. So how could Emma be your great grandmother? Or is that a joke?

[jkines38]

YES! Please release this on DVD! I remember it from years ago and it's really quite good. Does anyone know why the *uck it isn't on DVD yet!? Everyone I know who's seen it really liked it...I'm sure it would sell.

[Muffy2314]

Katherine Helmond played Emma

[Muffy2314]

interesting-did not know Liz Montgomery was related to Lizzy distantly. where did you find that out? Liz did a very believable job depicting her. it looks like Katherine Helmond had a nose job after this.she has a Roman nose in this movie; on Who's the Boss her nose was smaller. still a good actress.

[DanielSelby1965]

In the UK this film was released in theaters in June 1975.

[cultvideocrypt]

If anyone needs a DVD-R copy of this movie, I can help you out. I have the uncut European version with nudity! Price is $6 + $3 shipping within the US. Message me if interested.

[alfcab]

liz montgomery was a distant relative of lizzie borden.

[lavendergirl63]

Ms. Montgomery did a splendid job, and did anyone recognize Lizzy's sister as "Jessica Tate" from the t.v. show Soap?

Great job!

[blacksteel88]

is this freezin for anyone else

[bunnybooties]

That is creepy!:D Elizabeth Montgomery is the best tv actress, if not one of the best actresses,period, of all time!:D

[DA90027]

Lizzie was the OJ Simpson of the 1890's

[zooeyhall]

@DA90027 You're right. Instead of playing the "race card", she did the "damsel in distress" hysterics.

But it must have worked---she managed to beat the rap.

[sherryberry65]

Her lack of an answer says it all.

I saw this movie as a little kid...creepy.

[lizzysecondstreet]

When most people think of Lizzie Borden, they see Elizabeth Montgomery's brilliant performance.  I think it is a classic!

[DanielSelby1965]

Does anyone else notice how Elizabeth slightly nods her head yes as the camera pans around her? Amm I seeing things? I have this on UK VHS tape and viewed it on my huge screen TV and I swear she nods Yes she did it.

[PlanBModels]

This was one of the best TV movies of the Seventies, hands (or hatchets?)down. It offered up one of the most plausible explanations for the absence of blood on Lizzie's clothing, and managed to subtly hint at what may have been a slightly inappropriate relationship between Lizzie and her father.

The casting is incredible- Liz Montgomery bore an uncanny resemblence to Lizzie. Fritz Weaver made Andrew Borden more than just a hapless victim. Flanders as Knowlton, and so on. PLEASE RELEASE on DVD!

[teleise3]

Lizzie did it period.

[SimplifyItClaire]

no. she didnt. its scientifically impossible :D

[Punkrockprincess937]

How is it scientifically impossible?

All evidence points to her :/

[SimplifyItClaire]

she couldn't have done it. someone saw her outside during the murder of andrew. Read the book called Lizzie Didn't Do It. it shows all the flaws in convicting Lizzie.

[laurie2121]

yea but b4 they never thought that a woman would ever do such a crime

[178metallica]

@teleise3 i was william borden

[zooeyhall]

@teleise3 Lizzie did it. She had the motive and did some very incriminating things both before and after the murders (predicting a "family catastrophe" was about to occur, showing no emotion after the murders, etc.).

People in the 1890s just couldn't believe a Sunday School teacher and daughter of an upstanding middle-class family could commit such a gruesome crime. Adding to that her "damsel in distress" antics during the trial, so she managed to walk.

[movieman2000]

haha that's an awesome ending.

love the singing at the end and Elizabeth Montgomery looks stunning as usual and scary when her eyes are watering up.

Love it

[SecretiaTV]

Hi, Secretia Collins here from SecretiaTV... that Elizabeth Montgomery did not like me. I played Serena. Party on Cloud 9 at ten.

[movieman2000]

What?

Elizabeth Montgomery played Serena under the fake name "Pandora Spocks"...

What are you on about?

[SecretiaTV]

HIMSC... that's how she likes to tell it.

[JeessiieeeLovesYou]

wtf... um serena was played by elizabeth m.

[SecretiaTV]

HIMSC... that's how she likes to tell it.

[JeessiieeeLovesYou]

what does HIMSC mean?

[EcoTard]

Wow that was actually pretty chilling!

[lizzysecondstreet]

Although this movie has many omissions and errors, it does a good job of giving the viewer a place to start in trying tounderstand this eternal murder mystery. If you love this movie, go to Fall River, MA and stay at the Lizzie Borden B and B. I go once every year and completley immerse myself in all things Lizzie and 1892 Fall River. Great town, wonderful people, the best B and B you will ever see, and a story to die for. (Sorry about that last one.)

[FanofBewitched]

Did you know that Lizzie Borden was related to Elizabeth Montgomery they where cousins.

[24Lancelot]

And i've figured out what you are. Your "videos" (I'll call them that" are pieces of shit. Which ugly mother is you? Come on...you made a threat, carry it out...pusssssssssssss e.

[24Lancelot]

And you're a pussy behind a computer. You threatened I'll kill anyone who says anything mean-spirited about Lizzy Borden by hitting them repeatedly with a hatchet."

I called her a bitch and you're still mine, not doing anything to back yourself up...pussssssssssssss e

[24Lancelot]

A-hole? Not big enough to say asshole, which would be appropriate if you looked in a mirror.

If you're against cons having puter access, how do you and your father communicate via email? Feltcher, lol.

[24Lancelot]

dickthripp said: "I'll kill anyone who says anything mean-spirited about Lizzy Borden by hitting them repeatedly with a hatchet."

TOUGH GUY! WHOOOOAAHHHH!!!

Lizzie was a bitch...watcha gonna do? Hmmm? Hmmm, fuckface? Watcha gonna do???

[JeessiieeeLovesYou]

your very childish...

[24Lancelot]

And you don't know how to spell "you're". Not only that, you're a cunt.

[JeessiieeeLovesYou]

I'm on my summer break, so I really don't care about grammar, also, look you're acting childish again!

[24Lancelot]

Oh, you only worry about grammar during school time? LMAO! Hope you don't have to apply for a job after 3:30pm.

BTW - if you think someone using words like cunt and fuckface is childish, that says a lot about your parents. Most children don't use those words. Then again, a dumb cunt like you wouldn't know.

[JeessiieeeLovesYou]

It makes me laugh when people like you, judge people you have never met, you don't know anything about me, but yet, you carry yourself like you do, grow up.

[24Lancelot]

"It makes me laugh when people like you, judge people you have never met"

You mean, like the way you judged me? Wow...I don't need to meet you to know you're a hypocrite.

ya dumb cunt! LMAO@U!

[dck8andrew]

lol

[24Lancelot]

Reading your post is like waking up to a colonoscopy.

But, since you bring up homosexuality, it seems to be on your mind. Feltcher. LMAO!

[24Lancelot]

Well, when you saw a murder when only 8 years old, things like this show can scare you. There is no perhaps in you being an asshole.

[24Lancelot]

I remember seeing this when I was 12, this ending and the end of Burnt Offerings gave me chills! The look on Elizabeth's face when she turns around, the lifeless look of "you know, you asked me this question and you're going to have to go to sleep...sometime".

[24Lancelot]

You sound mighty tough behind that computer, Mary!

[SparkleFeatherDust]

o__o

[ceratotheriumsimum]

Is there any mention of william borden in the movie?

[mrharrypotter]

i felt so creeped up after seeing some mini clips of liz borden.tht woman is like a murderess even if she really ain't one..oh n liz-she truly shines!every moment despite acting as an axe murderess!

[toptop90]

whys the youtube player messing about.can play the vid properly

[inbetweentics]

i have this one! thanks for posting it. for anyone looking to see it on tv, the oxygen channel shows it every now and then - i'm not even a viewer of the channel - just happened to see this movie listed in my onscreen guide one day. liz montgomery is great in this - along with julie harris!

[katie2795]

ive touched her dress. been to her house. yea i live rightr near here

[inbetweentics]

that's incredible!

[antonioandsonic13]

elizabeth montgomery is related to the bordens thats why she played her cousin lizzie.

[xMegan721x]

wow...didnt know that. are you sure? well anyway...i wonder if she knows the real answer to the mystery - hah, doubt it...

[jazzyfayy1983]

yea i was reading about elizabeth montgomery from the wikipedia and she said she was related to the bordens

[thatwitch]

Elizabeth Montgomery and Lizzie Borden were sixth cousins once removed, both descending from 17th-century Massachusetts resident John Luther.

I'm not sure if Liz actually knew she was related to LB or not, but it's certainly interesting that she played her own cousin. Makes this movie even more fascinating, imo.

[P3huntress]

i have seen and touched her dress

[Hollister4242]

When The Kids Start To Sing It's Sounds Creepy

[Griff1319]

I want this movie on DVD damn, but rare movies like this they are costly

[peanutguy664]

I was SO excited; I've been looking for this movie on DVD for YEARS, and today my video store finally ordered is. ^_^ I cannot wait. =)

So it must be out on DVD, somewhere. Just really hard to find. :(

[Travieso78702]

Elizabeth Montgomery was such a great and underrated actress. She will be missed.

[drunkensnowgirl]

i loved this movie

[sOLeeSoL]

*shivers* Why is it when little kids sing creepy-like songs it makes the song creepier????? *shivers again*

[littlesushii]

every move with little kids singing creepy nursery Rhymes gives anyone the creeps

[Reeca1]

I know this creeps me out, I shouldn't have watched this. lol

[jazzyfayy1983]

even the 1979 amityville horror movie had little kids singin and it sounded creepy all they was sayin was la la la la and it sounded scary

[LaShea69]

@sOLeeSoL For real, though. Just like the little girls from the "Nightmare on Elm Street" Series.

[prodigaldsd2003]

DA90027 missive to yeahtoday:

"yeahtoday," you must've been under a big rock, as DA noted. In the 70s and 80s, Montgomery was classified as "the Queen of Made-for-TV Movies," and also one of the highest paid actresses in the televsision industry. Her "A Case of Rape" was considered a landmark, at the time; and she went on to star in and produce her own ventures, until her sadly premature death. People-wise, she was wonderfully down-to-earth and humorous.

[jimtodd]

Is that Katherine Helmond playing Emma? I've never seen her so young.

[24Lancelot]

Yeah! It was made just a couple of years before she started in "Soap".

[ghosttrain2066]

The psychopathic look on Elizabeth Montgomery's face after her sister asked if she did it is an expression of her great talent.What a wonderful woman.

[Stef7771]

Excellent adaptation! Is it out on DVD?

[ghosttrain2066]

people re act the trial at law schools and come to the same verdict.its a lot like o.j trial.

[MCRisHOTT123]

I ha d to do an English paper on this pyscho!
