  Curry absolutely crushed that role. Being scary and magnetic at the same time made him more terrifying. That voice!

  I'm 45 and even now, YEARS after having watched this film for the first time, it still sits very comfortably in my personal Top 5 Films.

  Legend was one of the most beautiful movies I've ever seen.  It SHOULD have won an Oscar.

  I LOVE the movie Legend. It’s what really turned me into fantasy movies. Labyrinth, Willow, The Never Ending Story, and Dark Crystal. Seen them all many times. ❤

  One of the most underrated and underappreciated films ever made. Tim Curry should have won an Oscar for his role and wasn't even nominated. Easily the best villain ever portrayed. The makeup, special effects, and cinematography were all A+. I think this shows why studios need to leave great directors alone, this film was amazing and could have even been better. I rank this as one of the top ten fantasy movies of all time.

  Legend is a legend. It is one of my all time favorites. When I was in my adolescence, I was obsessed with it. I can only imagine what Scott's original vision would look like.

  Masterpiece. Every shot is like an oil painting brought to life.

  I was 12 when this came out in theaters and i was instantly mesmerized. When it moved to HBO, a few months later, i would watch it over and over and over again. Legend and Labrynth dominated my tweens 😂 ... and still hold a special place in my heart.

  Any one who argues cgi is superior to real needs to watch this movie. So much better than most today. I love this movie.

  It was so ahead of its time for visual effects and makeup effects. Much better than cgi, it will remain an iconic movie in its time.
