Wow, I'm in my 60's but I still remember watching this in my living room back in the day when it came on. Even though it scared the crap outta me I just couldn't get enough. Even remember the opening and the theme song.

My mother was an accomplished artist, clothing designer and seamstress. After this film, titled" The Scarecrow of Romney Marsh", aired on The Wonderful World of Disney my mother made a faithful replica of the Scarecrow's costume. I remember, being the age of nine or so, Mom sewing together rafts of straw to place strategically throughout the garment/hat and it was a hit for Halloween of 1964. I wore the refreshed costume the next Halloween, with more straw(!), working a different part of the neighborhood and adjacent homes. After that my younger brothers wore the costume, repaired each year (made to look as tattered as it did compared to the original Polaroid photograph of it) through at least 1969 and it was lost to time after that because neither I nor my brothers, who remember it too, don't know what became of it. The costume had a chest-piece which joined with the shoulder pads to support the wooden dowel behind the neck to give the tunic a real scarecrow's drape. The painted burlap mask had a satin inner-facing to prevent it from making the face itchy. Very cool.

Wow! I hadn't seen this in years!!! Loved watching this as a kid in the late 70s. Didn't realize it was filmed in '63. Hard to believe there once was a show we called "The Wonderful World of Disney" and they put together an enjoyable hour of family TV like this every week.

I remember watching this on Sunday evening Disney when I was about five or six, and being enthralled with the costumes, the accents, and the shadows. The mystery of it always intrigued me even though I was too young to understand the story.

With all the remakes being overdone in Hollywood why hasn't anyone stepped up to remake this awesome classic? I love the original and always will, but this story could be remade with a fresh new group of british actors and would appeal to all generations of audiences. It was one of the best Disney movies ever made.

I have always had a fond memory of this movie. The Scarecrows' screech is what I remember most about it.

Wow I was 7 years old setting in front of a old black & white TV filled with excitement when this first aired and I never new it was made in color. Seen it a couple more times back in the 60's but not since. It is very surprising how much realism there was in movies made in those days that Hollywood just can't seem to capture anymore. A very much Thank you for the upload

Very typical of Disney live action adventure productions of this era, reminiscent of Zorro, Mooncussers and Swamp Fox. McGoohan is very well cast here.

Man does this film bring back memories. I was 9 years old when I watched this. Thanks.

A magnificent film and cast. I saw it as a child and I've never forgotten it. Thank you!

I love this move so much. When I was 10 yrs I made a mask of scarecrow.Rideing my bike through the neighborhood on Halloween night.I thought I was so cool.Thanks Mr Disney for the memories.

The Scarecrow of Romney Marsh is a brilliant British epic come to life on the screen with great actors at the height of their careers and unforgettable music as well. It literally never gets old. Say what you will about Walt Disney the man...but the artist and business man could tell a good story, run the world's best theme park and set hundreds of legendary entertainment events in motion. As I look back at life in America since the 1950's, the influence that Disney had on each and every young mind, my own included, is incalculable. If you've any doubt about Walt's intentions towards strengthening young minds, watch 'Donald Duck ln Mathmagic Land' and grow wise.

What a cracking film with outstanding cast, childhood memories, love it!!

Probably my favorite childhood movie. Thank you so much for posting it.

What a great line 'You're dead, run for your life'

Good old Patrick Mcgoohan, TV & movie legend. Fine supporting cast, too - Micheal Hordern, George Cole, Patrick Wymark, Tony Britton and more...Many thanks for sharing.

10 thumbs up. A Childhood favorite. And a senior fave still. Thank you, TBRG.

I remember waiting to watch an episode of Scarecrow on Sunday night. My mother wanted to watch The Beatles on Ed Sullivan instead. Oh the pain.

It's a shame this isn't on Disney +.

Romney Dymchurch all in my back yard Rye and Littlestone on sea I miss it so!! This film is all the episodes edited together! Sold my DVD copy now the DVD is worth loads of money! grrrr

It's been quite a number of years since I've seen this movie. Just as good now as it was then. Mysterious, suspenseful, and the Scarecrow's haunting laugh... ghoulish and frightening. "Can nobody stop the villain?" "They'll still try sir, don't worry; they'll still try." Great movie, they just don't make 'em like this anymore. Sad, really.

“Scarecrow! Scarecrow! The soldiers of the King feared his name.”

my all-time favorite Walt Disney Show. I believe it was shown in three parts on Wonderful World of Disney on Sunday night. When your 5 its pretty scary.

Thank the gods for YT. I watched Disney's the Horsemasters (still the best riding movie ever) and this. My sister asked me about it the other day. We saw it way back when also. I was 10 😮

I'm 60 now and I remember watching at school in the hall, it was brilliant then and it still is today!

I'm in my late 50's and still remember this movie and the theme song. It scared the hell out of me when I was a kid.

Thank you uploader those were the days when Disney stood for entertainment.. What a great cast of British stalwarts. Disney had the best working for him Like Patrick Mcgoohan in this classic.. Any chance anyone could upload Disney's " Rob Roy" starring a genuine WW2 Hero Richard Todd. e

My favorite Disney Program!!!! So glad to finally get to see it again!

That is the best wonderful movie I ever seen in my 52 years of my life

My dad dressed up as the scarecrow for Halloween as a kid. He was terrified and enamored at the same time. I love it!

I grew up with this movie & have always loved it. My mom had it on a VHS tape & I watched it all the time. I finally got it on Blu Ray. George Cole was hilarious in this movie. Pretty sure my mom invented 'screen shots' taking photos of the TV screen when this was on Wonderful World of Disney. Patrick McGoohan was an outstanding actor. He was also in Disney's 'three lives of Thomasina'.

A tremendous adventure. I love the story, costumes and actors. I even bought comic #1 back then as a kid in the drugstore one Sumday. Wonderful World of Disney was me and my brother's favorite show. Patrick McGoohan is so icy cool as the scarecrow and vicar. Wow! I am grateful to Walt Disney for giving us great films.

One of my DISNEY FAVORITES! They don't make movies like this anymore! What a TIMELESS TREASURE! Better than ROBIN HOOD!

... Wow!... The last time I watched this great movie was when I was 9 years old (56yrs ago!... much like most of you guys commenting :0). I just couldn't believe my eyes when it popped up as a suggested movie. I watched it at Marylebone Children's Library London UK where they had a mobile projector and screen set up (it must have been a 35mm print). Also remembered watching another excellent movie there 'The 39 Steps' with Kenneth More...Great times. I feel like we're all in a Disney '65 year old club'!.. My, that makes me feel reeaalllly ancient. Peace & ♥

I Really enjoyed this movie as a kid in 1963 The only One Time I'VE seen it, at the cinema It impresses me back then that kept remember the movie .. NOW I found it on YOU TUBE ,Thanks for sharing it to watch it again

As a five year old when this originally aired, I remembered only snippets. This was really a good film. I didn't realize it was first a novel and that Romney Marsh is a real place near Dover on the English Coast. Thanks for posting.

I was 7 when I first saw this on our B/W tv in 1963 -- I loved it so I remembered, that was 60 years ago. I'm still glad I actually bought a copy some years ago --- I put it in the dvd player today i'm just looking to see if it's still in print ----- no luck!

Absolutely one of my favorites!!! I remember watching this the night it aired. Even got it on DVD eventually. But thrilled-to-death to see it on YT!!!

Thank you so very much for having this Great Picture here, I first seen this when I was a child, I never forgot its mystery and intrigue.

Thank you for the upload. This was wonderful. All things a movie should be. Thank you Walt Disney. RIP Walt.

Absolutely super! Loved every minute. Many thanks for posting

I remember watching this as a kid.loved it!

Excellent film. Thanks for sharing.

This is my all time favorite Disney Movie! I never forgot it and always remembered the song and I looked forward to watching it each year it came on. I finally found it of dvd. But it's cool to find it on KZfaq also.

Thank you very much for posting this film. It brings back fond memories of childhood.

So many comments regarding this film fair enough. But would never have been made without Russel Thorndyke!. Doesn't anyone read anymore. Fantastic books for young adults to read.

April 29, 2019----At 65, I've watched a lot of Disney movies and this one is not only one I've never seen, but never even heard of. Of course being 10 years old at the time, tv was ONLY in B&W and don't remember it being even advertised at Homestead AFB, Florida movie theater. Thank yoou.

This movie had been aired in segments on American television in the 1960s, and I remember dressing in a scarecrow costume for Halloween when I was 10 or 11. I was surprised to see, during my Air Force basic training in 1975, that it was playing in movie form at one of the movie theaters at Lackland AFB, TX.

When movies were movies, and actors were actors....good times

Watched this as a kid in 1964. Remember watching the final part on Disney, when my babysitter wanted to turn the channel to watch a show about a bug (I thought) called the "Beatles" on a show called the "Ed Sullivan Show". I remember protesting loudly when she changed the channel. It turned out the Beatle "bug" was a group who was singing "I Wanna Hold Your Hand". I remember after the song I was allowed to watch the rest of the movie.

Thank you so much for sharing have always loved this one. Scared me as a kid, but I still loved it.

That's for sharing. Really appreciate.

I was 10 when I last saw this. What a great movie.

I love this movie... thank you!

I have been searching for this title for forever... Not disappointed.

got the movie and series on dvd.....loved it and love it today

Thank you, I hadn’t seen it since it first aired when I was a child.

Thank you so much. I had flashbacks of my childhood all the way through.

A Great movie, I remember it watching it when Disney had a TV show, Thanks for sharing it.

At long last! Thanks so much for posting this.

Omg I've been looking for this film for years and couldn't find it anywhere thank u so much

What a great movie.Ive never seen it before,but loved it.I love all the older movies.

The Scarecrow what a classic as a kid on Sundays.I loved all the episodes and the musical score was great.

Love this Movie! Thanks for the upload!!!!

Thanks for the upload! Don’t worry about the people moaning about the video quality. I grew up watching this on bootleg VHS that was in much worse quality!

I loved it at age 10,1963 but it was scary also.

Many thanks for posting, I haven’t seen this movie in many years.

Thanks for post this!

One of my Favorite Disney flick.

Absolutley full of historic inaccuracies - but hey, it's a good, old school Disney swashbuckling romp and great fun. Well done the cast and thanks for uploading.

I remember watching this as a kid in Australia, maybe 6 or 7yrs old, the bird masks scared the crap out of me that’s for sure , enough to sleep with the night light on lol 😆

This was a great story. What many don't know, though, is several of the actors in this later would play pivotal roles in the James Bond series of films.

Great quality Thanks much

wow! I loved this. thank u posting!

Thanks for the upload!!! Memories!!! Of being frightened!

Love this film. I have a very old vhs copy that I try to keep safe as it’s not really available to buy anymore. So glad to see this as I don’t like playing the tape in case I break it!

Great Movie

Love this movie. Thank you!

Scarecrow: “you are dead run for your life.”

Patrick McGoohen When did he ever not create believable characterization?

When I saw this 50 years ago, I knew he was a hero, but he was a SCARY hero! I was but a wee lad. I didn't see the original release of Feb 1964 - I saw a rebroadcast several years after on CBC (did NBC also broadcast the Wonderful World of Disney?).

'... now lettest Thou Thy servant depart in peace according to Thy Word, for mine eyes have seen Thy Salvation. ' Very good!

The Scarlet Pimpernel? I still love this film. Thank you/

I was 10 when I saw this on Walt Disney thanks

Esta pelicula me llevo aun viaje hasta la decada de los años 70s una infancia muy feliz, gracias y saludos desde mexico

that was brilliant, thanks! once again Kent is steeped in history, it all happened down there lol.

Great film

What a wonderful movie. Patrick McGoohan before he was the warden in Escape from Alcatraz and Edward I Longshanks in Braveheart. What a fantastic actor. And I'm sure I've left out many of his parts in between but I was young. I do remember he was in a series that played for some length but I can't remember the series. I was so young when I watched this, I never made the connection between it and the American Revolution. To me it was a movie about someone outside the law trying to correct injustices. Did they really pressgang children of the nobility? That seems like that would have caused an uproar.

Enjoyed that ,thanks.

Remember being 11 on School Journey in Primary School 1976 in St Mary's Bay New Romney the teachers had us listen to the story at night whilst we drank our hot cocoa made with water. Loved the story not so much the watery cocoa. Dr Syn is still a legend down in Dymchurch

thank you for the movie, sure enjoyed that !

Still love this movie. Mr McGowan did a great job. The Red Coats make good villains

This was a piece of art should be more

I love the BBC radio version Discovered this Excellence Hope more and Couldn't Disney make a new

This was on opposite The Beatles on Ed Sullivan on that historical day, February 9, 1964.

This is a great one love it, thanks for sharing

The 1937 film version of "Dr. Syn" was apparently rewritten to make it suitable for a younger audience.

Many thanks,I watched the Beatles that night

wow long time no see since 60 s well worth a watch still has that x factor great to see again booooom!!!

Thank u, thank u I love this film so much
