Sammy Davis is a caterpillar...or is he...

[TheEnjoiPandolin]

I wish Sammy Davis would pass me some of what the fuck he's smoking.

[papason4041]

OH MY GOD! this is the most rediculas thing i have ever seen

[lavendermagic84]

She made such a cute li'l Alice!! And this was a great scene...

[MMAD4YOU]

This was my favorite version growing up, and still is. I love Sammy Davis Jr. He's amazing. I love him. I wish someone would sell the soundtrack.

[Minan3]

the disney version of this was brutal, but this one is like dreaming, but still learning about reality.

[NeonMinnie]

Love the tap!!!!

[MrCharlequin]

...Why is Sammy Davis Jr. rapping? Is it because he's black?

[hippiechild92]

To be fair, I think the costumes were an attempt to depict Father Williams and the boy. Why they made them look like Ben Franklin and the lost Von Trapp child, the world may never know..

[backwoodsninja]

Best version of Alice In Wonderland ever!

[kanyaisgood]

these costumes make no sense!

[nwmvp27]

I LOVE THIS! AWESOME FOOTWORK BY SAMMY DAVIS.

[bigtool66]

Is this on DVD???

[2468kiddy]

@bigtool66 Yes it is I got it out from my library when they had it but I don't know what happened to it because I haven't seen it there. I'm guessing that it either got lost or was damaged.

[itsFlossy]

I would watch this when I was little and wish so badly that I could tap dance with Sammy Davis in a fedora.

[Jovanneebighead13]

You r old said the youth as i said before and has grown uncomminly fat yet u turn a back summer slat in at the door pray what is the reson for that ! the catepillar guy is cross eyed wanna see 2:05 to 2:08

[thenicestbitch]

@Jovanneebighead13 He had a glass eye. They're kind of hard to control you know.

[jasperweary]

@Jovanneebighead13 "the catepillar guy" is Sammy Davis, Jr. He lost an eye in an auto accident in the early 60s... the eye that doesn't move is a prosthetic/glass eye.

[mistressmpt]

she looks like jonbenet so cute! dont get the german lederhosen look!

[ObiWanBillKenobi]

"Ha ha ha ha! That was excellent!"

[perryisrighthere]

This. Is. Sheer. Genius. WHAT A BADASS.

[moviemonkeys]

That was horrifying.

This should've stayed in the Eighties...

[Blackjesus3]

amazing man he sure was :D

[Meowwie1]

I LOVE this version of Alice in Wonderland, and this is my favorite scene, with the great Sammy Davis Jr. His performance is supreme.. I never get tired of watching this..

What a great movie !!!!

[rootbeeronbroadway]

@Meowwie1 dont forget carol haha

[KisaKub]

Ahh, I performed this poem today for theatre class and wanted to hear this version again, and here it is. Thanks. :3

[wickedfeylady]

Ooooookay, he decides to help her with the poem..so he takes a big drag on the hookah and the costumes change and they burst into rap. What the hell was in that hookah? J/K, loved this movie as a kid, still adore the Alice story

[pgy002]

Oh this movie is so much better than that cartoon! it's more true tot he book, the cartoon leaves SO MUCH stuff out!

[Dulcinea131313]

Sammy Davis Jr and Carol Channing songs were the best out of this special! She's so cute!!

[angrynostolgiamann12]

Wh...

why is the catapillar black?

why is he wrapping?

why is she dressed like a german?

Why's he look like a colonial?

[itsFlossy]

@angrynostolgiamann12 : You obviously don't know much about historic poetry or spelling.

[angrynostolgiamann12]

@itsFlossy okay okay, Im sorry for the spelling error(s) and the poetry

[EMILLYOK]

@angrynostolgiamann12 Alice in Wonderland 1985, did you expect it to be 'normal'? haha

[endofscene]

@angrynostolgiamann12 It's wonderland. Up is down and black is white and you can never have jam today!

[drgoodspd]

@angrynostolgiamann12 eat some of these mushrooms... it will all make complete sense.

[Tigerwarhawk]

@angrynostolgiamann12 Why can't you use proper capitalization?  Why can't you spell?

[angrynostolgiamann12]

@Tigerwarhawk i apologize, i was young and a jackass

[luv79luv]

This is one of my fav songs in this whole movie.... kinda sad it was a made for t.v movie but its still one of my favs... and I'm now 30!

[Gnillob802]

Actually it was produced by Irwin Allen (The Poseidon Adventure, The Towering Inferno) with a budget for a theatrical release, but he felt it needed to be at least three hours long which would be too long for kids in a theater and thought the story would hurt if he had to wait a year to release part 2. Putting it on TV made more sense and gave him immediate funding. In Europe, where distribution is quite different, he did release it in theaters in two parts about a couple weeks apart.

[Shellyshelly3]

oh my gosh! i didn't know this was Sammy Davis Jr!! i have this on video and watched it when i was a kid.. just then saw this other clip of Sammy and i was thinking how familiar he looked so i did a little search and came to this vid!!! COOL!!

I rem watching this as a kid and thinking how annoying Alice was loll and i didnt realize this movie is quite old.

[rayblack2004]

when did sammy d die?

[MusicFeedsYourSoul]

He died in 1990 of throat cancer.

[yomammah0]

[Mothella]

[PaleCabbage]

Sammy davis is a legend

[clocks05]

as if the caterpillar actually smoked a bong! I watched this as a kid!

[TamaraHansson]

This was my favourite Alice in wonderland movie! I Love Sammy! xx

[AYoTahh]

IVE BEEN LOOKING FOR THIS MOVIE FOREVER!! I found Alice in Wonderland on DVD, but had to get Looking Glass on VHS :( Why release one and not the other on dvd ;.;

[fivebearrugs]

Hmmm...in the US, both parts are on the same DVD...

[WatchMeShred]

That kid could act!!!! What happened to her?

[Cybrmewtwo]

Natalie Gregory? She also starred in the Disney film Oliver & Company as the voice of Jennifer Foxworth, and in the Walt Disney World Resort's Epcot theme park attraction Cranium Command as Annie. That was about it tho.. shame cuz she really is amazing!

[3atyourfac3]

This scene is so freakin cute! XD

[zeldatheghoul]

wow that brings back memories :D

[Leeanaarmina]

This is an awesome scene. I need to watch this whole movie again sometime soon...

[pgc4sean]

RIP Sammy!

[Eccentric0Enigma]

... the question is... what happened to the girl who played Alice...

[SOPRANOGOLD83]

her name is Natalie Gregory...she did the voice of the girl in Oliver and Company. I don't know that she's done anything in the business since she was a little girl. The girl who plays her sister is her real life sister.

[parkerman6]

[Thashining]

[jackthanc]

[blondeisius]

[DantBelmont]

ugly costumes :S...the don't have make up ¬¬....looks like an unprofecional work

[WJFuntingworthIII]

learn to spell proffessional - dont diss movies you've never seen too

[vitaphreak]

Hmm! Sammy Davis was the Cheshire Cat in the 1966 Hanna-Barbera animated TV version of "Alice In Wonderland"...!

[stargategeek]

my parents taped this movie, i used to sing this song, thanx so much for uploading.

[stargategeek]

i love this movie, this scene was my ultimate fave, ever since i was like seven. Thank you for putting it on youtube.

[wildchats]

More music clips from this movie! I have mostly all of them, but they aren't as good quality as this!
