Customer Reviews

"They passed down all the roads long ago. And the Red Bull ran behind them, and covered their footsteps..."
When I was about 5 I saw this on TV and have loved it ever since. We had it recorded on video but was chucked away. It took me years to track it down again but once I had, I was so happy and relived so many of the things I loved about this classic.
The story is that of a unicorn who overhears men talking about her being the last of her kind, disbelieving this, the unicorn goes on a quest to find others like herself. Along the way she is captured by a witch and meets Schmendrick the Magician, as well as Molly Grue, Prince Lir, King Haggard and The Red Bull.
This was made in the early '80's on a low budget, therefore the animation is not what you would expect from a Disney or Dreamworks animation but is still fantastic and will capture your imagination.
I for one, never looked at the sea the same way again, since I first watched this film!

Brillent
I love this film i used to watch it when i was young there were parts that would scare me i got over them as i got older
But i watched it recently on video it brought back memories.
I was recommened it to any one but i wouldnt advised young children to watch it as it could easily scare them but overall i love the film i heard they were ment to make it a real life movie of it dont know if thats going ahead.

Children's Classic!
I first saw this when I was about 5 and loved it! I used to drive relatives loopy watching it but I adore the story, it has everything that makes a good fairy tale; a scary villan, magic spells and of course fantasy creatures like the unicorn. I recently bought it on DVD and watching it again (as a grown up!) you pick up on lots of little things you never would've noticed when you were wee! It looks a bit dated now of course, the animation styles and things are very 80s, but to me that's half the charm of something enjoyed when small and still enjoyable now!
