"Little Red" by Gilmore Tamny
In this link to the story, "Little Red" by Gilmore Tamny, the author narrates as a concerned observer of the fiction archetypal character Little Red Riding Hood. The plot is a variation of the Grimm fairy tale in which the wolf eats the grandmother and then Little Red, but the difference in the plot is that Little Red gets a Deus-ex-Machina from an intrusive narrator. The narrator/writer gives Little Red a .38 caliber gun to protect herself, but Little Red is still devoured by the wolf. Then, Little Red, from inside the wolf's belly, shoves her granny's spectacles up into the wolf's throat so that he chokes. At the climax of the story, a Mary Kay consultant gives the wolf the Heimlich maneuver. The wolf vomits up Little Red and her grandmother. The wolf disappears into the forest. Little Red moves in with her granny. In the denoument, Granny & Little Red sink into a post traumatic stress disorder with phobias and insomnia so bad that they are too afraid to leave their cottage..until Little Red decides that the wolf has ruined their lives for too long. Little Red takes charge, rebels against Granny's warnings. leaves the house and curses the wolf's existence with a RANT! (IN ALL CAPS)!

Weird Zombie Version
This version shows Little Red getting chase by a zombie, i think, instead of a wolf. And Little Red actually goes home after she visits granny.

Lon Po Po
http://www.southbridge.k12.ma.us/CharltonSt/MantineoWebpage/lonpopo.htm
This is the chinese version of LRRH called Lon Po Po. Pretty similar is the setting and characters, w/ some slight differences. Short Read, take a look. I think its a shortened version.

Politically Correct Little Red Riding Hood
http://funnies.paco.to/ridingHood.html
This version of Little Red Riding Hood is written to be politically correct, which makes it kind of funny. It is different from the other versions because in the end the woodchopper saves the wolf because it is an endangered species and kills the girl because he thinks she is attacking the wolf.

This link is to the lyric of the Little Red Riding Hood song by Sam the Sham and the Pharoahs. As you're reading the lyrics you'll see that this is from the perspective of the wolf. Also, it's kind of a love story. You'll see.

Disney Little Red Riding Hood
http://youtube.com/watch?v=CdsxZJ791Xg
In this version there is no wolf at all. Instead it is a magician and there aren't any wards so you kinda have to figure things out by the actions. Little Red also has a dog that goes with her and she is saved by a man in an airplane who she falls in love with at the end.

Little Red Ridding Hood
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8m9irtbE7QM This version of The Little Red Ridding Hood is a slide show with song. It is different than the versions I know, because it is based off of the wolf's perspective. This version relates to the origional story because in it the wolf isn't portrayed only as a dangerous animal, but represents a bad man with not so good intentions, who is attracted to, and is pursuing a young woman. |

Jamie- Bugs Bunny riding hood
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0bIl5lzDj4s&feature=related
The version I have posted is a bugs bunny little red riding hood. It's funny because the girl is supposed to deliver the bunny to the grandmother and the wolf wants to eat the bunny when he saw the girl in the woods on her way to her grandma's. It's different from the original version because it's not the girl the wolf wants to eat, it's the rabbit. Anyways, towards the end, the girl keeps coming up and interrupting the wolf from trying to eat the rabbit so the rabbit and the wolf turn on the girl together and cook her. It goes back and forth between the wolf and rabbit trying to hurt one another, but at the end it's the girl who suffers.

Sam the Sham & The Pharaohs - Lil' Red Riding Hood
In this version, it's actually a catchy song by Sam the Sham & The Pharaohs called "Lil' Red Riding Hood." Basically, they take the point of the wolf and that ..."he wants love, rather than blood."
The following link has a clear version of the (part of the) song Lil' Red Riding Hood, but the video is made in part to a game called Blood Rayne. So just ignore the video, and listen to the music. =) And here are the following lyrics to the song as well.

Little Red Riding Hood

This is the Grimm Brother's version of Little Red Riding Hood. In the end the wolf eats Little Red Riding Hood, but she is saved by a hunter who cuts open the wolf's stomach while he is asleep. The little girl is rescued and so is her grandmother. While the wolf is still asleep they fill his stomach with rocks and he awakes to only to fall dead to the floor. There is also another related story with an alternate ending...

This version of Little Red Riding Hood is very similar to the original. The difference is in the ending. As Little Red Riding Hood is being eaten by the wolf, a woodsman hears her being attacked. He goes to the cabin to save her and then the video ends and you don't find out what happened to Little Red Riding Hood.

Little Red Riding Hood parody
Lil' Red From Da Hood:
In this parody of "Little Red Riding Hood" the characters and settings are different. Instead of the little girl red riding hood it is a male figure whose name is lil' red who is a "gangata", a real o g! Instead of Lil' red going out for his ill grandmother he goes out for his god father who gave him his red outfit. The setting is also set in the hood instead of the woods.
This parody of "Little Red Riding Hood" is very silly and humorous. It is made by a bunch of younger boys, but again funny.
