There's also a 1960's song that goes with this story, and if no one plays it, I may have to play it myself.  |

It was Donovan! That hippy bastard!!! Donavan never would explain what his songs were about. He left us to figure them out ourselves.

This is what happens when one does not pay the piper his due.  |

This is what happens when one does not pay the piper his due. What movie is that? That looks very similar to a movie called "The Day the Clown Cried" starring Jerry Lewis, which ended up getting cancelled because of the controversial subject matter (children getting killed in the Holocaust)

It's one of several Korean films based on European folklore, all which have a decidedly darker twist than the modern versions of these tales.

Can't scare the kids too much, or they could be traumatized for years to come.

Here's Van Johnson playing the Pied Piper for a TV special in 1957. I saw it when I was a child in the 70's.  And here's Van Johnson again playing a similar character called the Minstrel in 1966, as the guest villain on Batman. I don't know why he couldn't have simply played the Pied Piper again. A matter of legality perhaps.  |

Yeah, do not mistake Padak for a cute film for kids despite the songs and the obvious references to Finding Nemo, what with a tank full of clown fish. When Padak is placed in the clown fish tank by a devilish child, the clown fish start insulting her, so she eats them all.
