Advantages: Stars Peter Cook and Dudley Moore Disadvantages: Some idiot decided to remake it with Liz Hurley in
Bedazzled is a charming sixties comedy written by Peter Cook and Dudley Moore and also starring them along with people like Raquel Welch and Barry Humphries. Bedazzled is a film packed with dark humour and fantasy sequences (like most of the films I like) so please don't mistake it for the horrible remake with Brendan Fraser and Liz Hurley which was a bit too Hollywood.
Stanley Moon (Moore) is a chef at Wimpy, in lust with one of the waitresses ... ...his life he tries to end it when George Spiggot aka The Devil (Cook) appears and offers him 7 wishes in exchange for his soul.

Classic but underrated British comedy. For years it has been unavailable but eventually this year it was released, much to my excitement.
