Someone told me they saw a film in church starring Tim Curry dressed as Wonder Woman. Something about someone using marijuana and their whole family died. It was to scare kids away from drugs. I told her there is no way it was Tim Curry. She swears it was. Does anyone have a clue what she's talking about? Even if Tim Curry wasn't in it, have you heard of the film?
shareThat person's brain might be conflating a particular film with something else. Back in the 80s Curry was in "Pass the Ammo," where he played a corrupt televangelist whose church gets held hostage and eventually destroyed by the National Guard, and it initially looks as if a few of the protagonists are killed. There's also characters who don costumes, although none dresses up as Wonder Woman.
So it sounds like a possible example of the Mandela Effect, like people who misremember Sinbad playing a genie in a movie (when in reality they're confusing him with Shaq in "Kazaam.")
Thank you for that insight! I've never heard of that movie, so I'll be checking it out. Was it any good?
The closest I could come up with to "Tim Curry dressed as Wonder Woman" is the floor show of Rocky Horror Picture Show. ;)
There are fans of the movie, and you might like it, but I felt it was lackluster. The satire of televangelism felt more blunt than clever, and the whole plot just didn't interest me and seemed to run out of steam rather quickly. On the other hand, hearing Tim Curry with a Southern accent was... odd.
