A bizarre movie that has been locked away for years. It features a huge list of major stars in this re-telling of the classic children's story. It comes off, unbelievably strange, almost nightmarish in sequences! An amazing, amazing oddity.
I saw this when I was about nine years old on a station from New York (I think Channel 9 WOR). Even at that age, I remember thinking..."THIS is totally weird!"
