There’s scary stuff aplenty in the OG Wizard of Oz, but its 1985 follow-up bests even those goddamn flying monkeys with the Wheelers—kind of Oz’s version of a terrifying biker gang, with overly long limbs that end in screeching wheels and masks that cover their faces but do nothing to muffle their nightmarish cackles. The “Beware the Wheelers” graffiti is this film’s equivalent of “Surrender Dorothy” and you’ll wish a tornado would appear rather than strand you in a back alley with these guys. – Cheryl Eddy
