About This Movie

A Mirthworm Masquerade is a charming little piece of 80s animation that captures the quirks of childhood. Set against the whimsical backdrop of Wormingham's masquerade ball, it follows Bert, a young worm, who’s keen to ask Crystal to be his date. But then there's Wormaline, who throws a wrench in the works with her own plans for Burt. The animation style is quite unique for its time, with that hand-drawn warmth that feels nostalgic. The pacing is spot on for a TV movie—enough plot twists to keep it engaging without feeling rushed. The themes of friendship and rivalry among young ones come across clearly, making it a modest exploration of youthful emotions amidst a fun and lighthearted atmosphere.
