It’s that time of year again! It’s Nightmare Before Christmas time and Oogie Boogie is taking over. Roll the dice and see all the iconic roles, on and off screen, the great Ken Page has taken on over the years.
Oogie Boogie
From the movie and videogames to the Disney Parks, Ken Page has portrayed the no good Oogie Boogie for over 30 years. Described by Ken Page, Oogie is a “cross between Burt Lahr from the Wizard of Oz, Cab Calloway and the voice of the demon in the Exorcist." (CTInsider).
Whether you think Nightmare Before Christmas is a Halloween or Christmas movie, we can all agree that the gambling Boogie Man is an icon.
All Dogs Go to Heaven
If you are a Don Bluth Fan, you may remember seeing the heart wrenching classic, All Dogs Go to Heaven. Well, Ken Page is in that too. In the song Let’s Make Music Together, Ken Page voices the carefree, flamboyant King Gator.
Cats
Before the most recent attempt at putting the Cats musical on the screen, there was the direct to video iteration with Ken Page as Old Deuteronomy. To many, this is THE Cats movie and Ken Page as Old Deuteronomy is the blueprint for this Jellicle cat.
