Curiosidades
The fight between the Jabberwocky and the Black Knight was choreographed differently than what is shown in this movie. When Peter Salmon slipped and fell, writer and director Terry Gilliam decided it looked so natural that he edited the fight sequence to include the fall.

Pifias
Potatoes originated in the Andes, in South America. They were introduced to Europe in the middle of the 16th century, and were a staple food about 100 years later, well after the feudal era.

Citas
Narrator: It is the middle of the Dark Ages. Ages darker than anyone had ever expected.

Créditos adicionales
"All characters portrayed in this film are entirely fictitious and bare no resemblance to anyone living or dead, except for one."

medieval buffoonery

I was flicking through the stations looking for my favourite type of film - low budget comedies and b movies. Lucky me to find Jabberwocky!

I missed the beginning but soon realised I had strayed upon a gem of a film. Michael Palin in a ridiculous outfit in a filthy wretched medieval city! The scenery is perfect and on one level is quite realistic. Starving people, outside 'toilets' and general squalor - but this is a comedy and the characters are hilarious!!!

I noticed Warren Mitchel (Alf Garnet) and Bernard Bresslaw (from the Carry On's) in there too making for a very funny film

There are many memorable scenes and the humour is in a monty python style with plenty of slapstick and toilet humour

The low budget wasn't really noticable, and I thought overall had a more produced feel than the holy grail which really was low budget film!

I would definately recommend this film to anyone who likes crazy off beat comedies

Its not exactly a kids film because its gory in places and the princess at one point seems to lose her clothes, but older kids will probably love it... a bit like how the Goonies was almost too scary to be a kids film

I give it 5 turnips out of 5
