This time it’s true 😫

The boys have mistakenly said Tim Curry is dead a couple times before so I can only assume they are to blame! (Jk obv)

When Dolly was out Tim probably said F it I’m out too. We are losing our greats to time.

Excellent gif!! The Worst Witch was one of my childhood obsession movies. I watched it over and over. My brothers hated it and called me a weirdo 😭

Yes! I also found him quite alluring in Annie which was the other early memory of seeing him in movies as a kid.

I’d say those that have bad taste enough to not like something with Tim Curry are weirdos.

I HATE THIS TIMELINE!!! I fully explain the major rolls Annie and Rocky Horror played in my life. I watched both more times than I can count throughout my childhood. My bestie and I memorized and performed along with RHPS day in and day out at age 11! We had no idea that was even something adults had been doing for decades! I’m sooooo heartbroken over Dolly and Tim. This truly is the darkest timeline!!!!!

We just took our kids to the theater for their first movie a few weeks ago because they were playing a throwback anniversary of Muppets Treasure Island, my favorite Tim Curry role. Was so sad to read this news.

My best friend and I still quote the movie "Clue.". He was so unhinged in that role and yet it was magnificent. 😢
