Product: The Last Unicorn [VHS] (1982)
Rating: 1.0
so disappointing!
Wow, I really wish I had seen these reviews before I purchased this dvd! I just watched it and, like everyone else am appalled at the poor quality and editing of such a wonderful movie. This dvd edition is complete butchery of a much -loved classic!On top of the full screen only option, the whole first half of the movie is covered in film scratch lines and at one horrific point it actually looks like someone spilled coffee on the original vhs and just kept going. In fact I'm pretty sure my 1986 vhs copy, which I was going to replace, is actually better quality than this dvd and I watched it almost daily for at least three solid years. Having said that, I also have a bone to pick with the fact the two curse words in the script have been edited out in this rendition. For some reason that probably bothered me more than the rest of it put together.Overall, if you loved this movie as a kid and sang all the bad Mia Farrow songs out of tune with her and knew all the dialog by heart DO NOT BUY THIS DVD!!! It will just be really disappointing and make you wish you still had a vcr...
