Something about an evil 19th century warlock who made some evil cloak. A modern day family's portly, mustached father puts on the cloak and is possessed by the warlock. I want to say it was called "Boogity" or something, or the villain's name was Mr. Boogity.
That's a vague remembrance of Mr. Boogedy. What I remember is there were at least two Mr. Boogedy films. There was a sequel where he came back. We taped those off the TV and watched them all the time as kids.
I mainly remember a part where the suburban dad tries to hit Mr. Boogedy with a fireplace shovel, which then begins to inflate like a balloon and lift him off the floor.
The Bride of Boogity as well. Someone had posted the entire Mr. Boogity on YouTube a few months back - split up into 12minute clips, I think. I told myself I was gonna watch it for nostalgia, but I did not get around to it. Probably better off leaving that in my memory.
Wayne Allwine, who voiced Mickey during the 80's, refused to say the line "I just loved your movie, Fuzzbucket! You were terrific!" on general principle. When Eisner insisted, Allwine took five hostages and holed himself up in that one room in the Haunted Mansion where the pictures get larger. A tense nineteen hour standoff eventually ended when the guy in the Daisy Duck costume infiltrated the building and set off some tear gas.
All charges against Allwine were dropped once federal prosecutors saw the first five minutes of the movie.
Holy shit I remember this! The police couldn't fire into the mansion because their bullets would also get larger and potentially hurt the hostages.
Those were some TENSE negotiations with Goofy and Allwine, this was before the internet when you had to be present in real time and you didn't know what what going to happen.
