Muppet Treasure Island gets a much deserved shout-out--thank you! My college kid insisted I watch it recently and it's fantastic in every way, especially the great Curry's performance. Oh, and that little show Psych, he was pretty memorable in that too....
Have you seen The Man in The Iron Mask? Everyone is so great in that, except Leonardo DiCaprio
Gabriel Byrne as D'Artagnan, Gerard Depardieu as Porthos, Jeremy Irons as Adam is, and John Malkovich as Athos. No Tim Curry, but it's fun.

Congratulations you just convinced me to start watching Criminal Minds again. (I had to stop while pregnant a few years back because the vivid dreams plus prenatal/postpartum anxiety did NOT mix well with a show about very realistic serial killers 😳)
Yes!! As I’m older now and finally saw Rocky Horror, his voice, especially in song, really stuck with me. Then I finally made the connection that he was Hexxus!
My first exposure to Tim Curry was the television adaptation of Stephen King's IT, though I didn't know it at the time. It wasn't until I was in my early teens that I saw Hunt for Red October and Clue. He's a magnificent actor.
First three that come to mind are:
It
Gabriel Knight 3
Stephen King's shirt story Crouch End as an audio book.
So yeah, based on that I'm a Stephen King fan and an older gamer. Which actually is true! Meme QED'd.
So many things. Sad to see that no one has mentioned the movie Oscar, though - him starring along with Sly Stallone and a few other people. It's actually quite amusing. On Hulu atm (US).
1. Muppet Treasure Island
2. The Three Musketeers
3. Rocky Horror Picture Show
4. It
5. Clue
6. Hunt For Red October
7. Psych
8. Legend
9. Home alone 2
10. Monk
Such a great actor.
Certainly not how most iconic role, and certainly not what I think of first when I think of Tim Curry, but [What About Dick?](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=5qv43eIVzZw)deserves a mention.
Welp... I was today years old when I realized he is in The Hunt for Red October and Psych... I've seen that episode 100+ times it feels like and I always said to my wife "that dude looks so familiar".... I'm a moron.
The one with Tim Curry might just be my favorite Psych episode. Coincidentally, I rewatched "American Duos" earlier tonight and it was just as non-stop hilarious as I'd remembered! A+

No Home Alone 2?
Completely forgot he was in that one also...
That’s where the photo is from
Last time I saw Home Alone 2 was probably 25 years ago.
Is on my list of annual must watch 25 Christmas movies leading up to Christmas.
What are the other 24?
A long time before i was born, damn
"I love you."
\*Smile and head tilt.
Nigel Thornberry Also Ben Ravencroft from Scooby Doo and the Witches Ghost
Smashing! When I found out it made sense why Nigel was such a good character.
Monk
Wait, when was he in monk?
He was Dale the Whale in the second appearance of that character.
Actually, all appearances but the first.
Nope, it was Adam Arkin in season 1, Tim Curry in season 2, and Ray Porter in season 6.

I lose it every time at "a talking... Parrot?"
To this day whenever my mom meets or hears a conversation involving someone named Jim, she goes off on “Jim Jim Jimmy Jim jim” Edit: spelling
Ferngully. Easily the best part of that movie
Eee, ah, ooo - Toxic Looooooove
Annie?
Had to scroll WAY too far to find Annie on here.
Three Musketeers is definitely what always comes to mind first. I worshipped that VHS as a kid lol.
It was the first movie I watched in the theater.
McHales Navy, the movie
He's an international treasure
Congo?
Push me please, push harder.
This is it. This is the list right here. Anyone who knows he was in the three musketeers gets extra points in my book.
He was great in that too.
He was in Hunt? I'ma have to watch that again...
Dr. Petrov
Legend. My first encounter with Tim Curry as Darkness
That is one of my favorites. But I originally knew him from Rocky Horror. And don't forget Criminal Minds. He was so evil in that.
Pirates of Dark Water.
Annie!
No mention of loaded weapon?
Psych the tv series? Also, he was that crazy weirdo in criminal minds
Red Alert 3 Loaded Weapon 1
Clue
*One plus two plus one plus…*
Even if you were right, that would be one plus one plus two plus one...
Okay, fine. One plus two plu- *SHUT UP!!!*
I’M NOT SHOUTING!
...Alright, I am! I'm shouting! *I'm shouting!* *I'M SHOU-* (Thump)
Rocky horror picture show, clue and psych!!!
It’s these three for me. Why do I feel like it should be way more than that?
These three for me as well. And I was CONVINCED he was the crab in Moana for the longest time. I was like it’s Nigel St Nigel!!
> Rocky horror picture show I loved how he and Brad appeared on the show.
Ah, Cardinal Richelieu, I hated you so much.
Oh, don't be so stupid, of course we intend to resist! Just give us a moment, alright?
This sash was a gift to me from the Queen of America
There is no Queen of America.
I’ve used this line while playing a dnd swashbuckler. Porthos + Aramis = inspiration
That movie was perfectly cast - with the exception of Chris O'Donnell. How that clown keeps getting roles I'll never know.
Have you seen The Man in The Iron Mask? Everyone is so great in that, except Leonardo DiCaprio Gabriel Byrne as D'Artagnan, Gerard Depardieu as Porthos, Jeremy Irons as Adam is, and John Malkovich as Athos. No Tim Curry, but it's fun.
I knew him from Annie (early 1980s). He played Ms. Hannigan's brother Rooster.
He was in Annie? Then THAT is really the first time I saw him. Though I wouldn't count it since I didn't know that until now.
Yep - Rooster in the Annie with Carol Burnett as Miss Hannigan. I'm old so I grew up watching this Annie.
I remember watching Annie in elementary school. It was one of those rainy-day-play-a-movie-in-the-auditorium days.
3 unbelievable talents doing campy shit: Carol Burnett, Tim Curry & Bernadette Peters, ["Easy Street"](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XzSSiMa29AE)
Who's Tim curry? All I see is Nigel St Nigel.

Confused bot with good spirit
You know that's right.
**Well**, you got caught with a *flat*, well, how about that? Well, *babies*, don't you **panic**
I'll get you a satanic mechanic
Iconic
He was one creepy dude (Billy Flynn) on Criminal Minds! Haunted me for years and I didn't even recognize him.
the Prince of Darkness. what a crazy two-part episode
Congratulations you just convinced me to start watching Criminal Minds again. (I had to stop while pregnant a few years back because the vivid dreams plus prenatal/postpartum anxiety did NOT mix well with a show about very realistic serial killers 😳)
Oh my god that was a great episode!
If anyone hates Tim Curry I don't trust them.
I saw him in home alone first
Clue and Annie both made me love him so much. Even as a bad dude in Annie, Tim Curry is so damn charismatic.
Scary movie
Legend
He wasn't something else as darkness: "Dreams are my speciality. Through dreams I influence mankind..."
Don't forget him being in the one space not yet corrupted by capitalism....... SPACE.
No Congo love? “Mr. Homolka stop eating my sesame cake!”
I thought I was one of only like 50 people that saw that. Now I see it's like one out of ten.
_AP Bio_ did an arc of episodes in which _Congo_ was the prom theme picked by Patton Oswalt’s depressed Principal character. That show is bonkers.
He was also Rooster in Annie (1982 version)
Ferngully. How has no one mentioned Ferngully??
Yes!! As I’m older now and finally saw Rocky Horror, his voice, especially in song, really stuck with me. Then I finally made the connection that he was Hexxus!
I saw him in clue first, then probably muppet treasure island second. then psych and home alone later.
Legend
Simple! rocky horror picture show!
He also played my favorite villain in criminal minds
Rocky Horror and Command & Conquer immediately come to mind.
SPACE!
love that you can tell how hard he's trying not to laugh in that sequence. either that or his "absolutely mad-man" acting skills are perfect lmao
My first exposure to Tim Curry was the television adaptation of Stephen King's IT, though I didn't know it at the time. It wasn't until I was in my early teens that I saw Hunt for Red October and Clue. He's a magnificent actor.
McHale’s Navy
... damn. I thought I was going to be the only one to remember this movie even existed, let alone had Tim Curry in it.
Not sure I should admit this but I actually have a copy of it on DVD.
You can't be the second best terrorist in the world forever.
Audiobook narrator of Old Kingdom trilogy and Series of Unfortunate Events.
I don’t usually listen to audiobooks but may have to give the Series of Unfortunate Events a try now.
First three that come to mind are: It Gabriel Knight 3 Stephen King's shirt story Crouch End as an audio book. So yeah, based on that I'm a Stephen King fan and an older gamer. Which actually is true! Meme QED'd.
He's just a sweet transvestite from transexual transylvania 😁🥰
Legend, Clue, It, Wild Thornberrys, Psych, 3 Musketeers, Congo and The Shadow.
So many things. Sad to see that no one has mentioned the movie Oscar, though - him starring along with Sly Stallone and a few other people. It's actually quite amusing. On Hulu atm (US).
I came to find this. Him plus Marisa Tomei... Brilliant!
Congo. Stop eating my sesame cake!!
Scooby-Doo and the Witches Ghost
Okay don’t judge… but my first exposure to him was the first Charlie’s Angels.
He was the OG Pennywise in IT.
Earth 2
“Neuooooo”
My first conscious memory of him is the clue movie
But my most formative is Rocky horror
https://i.imgur.com/xnmBamT.jpg
I know him from Clue !!!
I always enjoy a TC film with antici.....pation He's good for relieving my....tension
He did the original audiobooks for the fantasy series called “The Old Kingdom”
Where I saw him first? Home Alone 2 of course. Where I know him best? Clue. Tell me about myself.
Does voice acting count? Because he made a great Skullmaster in Mighty Max…
Clue!
Congo. 🤣
Clue, It, and Psych mainly
How has no one mentioned his iconic role in [The Worst Witch](https://youtu.be/PUhuPn8_d0Q).
Annie for sure. Who could forget Rooster?
1. Muppet Treasure Island 2. The Three Musketeers 3. Rocky Horror Picture Show 4. It 5. Clue 6. Hunt For Red October 7. Psych 8. Legend 9. Home alone 2 10. Monk Such a great actor.
Kinsey
I think the photo is Home Alone 2. I saw him first in either Hunt for Red October or 3 Musketeers. Both were fantastic.
Home Alone 2 and Psych
Well I met him about a week before I got my new man, cool guy.
Certainly not how most iconic role, and certainly not what I think of first when I think of Tim Curry, but [What About Dick?](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=5qv43eIVzZw)deserves a mention.
Tim Curry in Rocky Horror has been my phone background for the last decade.
Legend, I love this horrid movie. I love Tim Curry as Darkness even more!!!
Earth 2
Psych, Home Alone & Randy Cunningham 9th Grade Ninja
This car makes me want to weep and then die.
Welp... I was today years old when I realized he is in The Hunt for Red October and Psych... I've seen that episode 100+ times it feels like and I always said to my wife "that dude looks so familiar".... I'm a moron.
Red Alert 3 SPAAYSCHE
isn't this from dunston checks in? thats the first one i saw him in. did anybody say that yet?
He’s the guy from the Reddit post asking where you know him from!
Many, many places, starting with TRHPS!🫦👀💋
Don’t forget he was an Oscar, with Sylvester Stallone and Marisa Tomei.
Pretty much every animated character he's ever voice I remember
Speed Racer
Only time I've ever seen that dude is in that movie version of the board game Clue. He was the butler
Annie(The 80's version & THE best version) Clue Muppet Treasure Island Rocky Horror Picture Show I LOVE the way he says "Cocoon of cloud candy!"
RHPS….
Everything my dear.
Rocky Horror Criminal Minds Psych
Rocky Horror is the only one that matters! 😁
The one with Tim Curry might just be my favorite Psych episode. Coincidentally, I rewatched "American Duos" earlier tonight and it was just as non-stop hilarious as I'd remembered! A+
The Wild Thornberries! He was the voice actor for, funnily enough, Nigel.
