Product: The Hobbit [VHS] (1977)
Rating: 1.0
Warning-this is taped @ SLP and is a multi-generation copy.
Do not buy this version - get the Warner Brothers version instead.This version, from Movies on Parade, is not worth buying. The production value is extremely low. The recording is of a very poor quality and portions are inaudible (particularly the critical riddle game with Gollum). At times the video 'skips' and it looks like it was taped on a machine that needed the heads cleaned.What a shame, as this is a otherwise a reasonable atttempt to take Tolkien's story and put it on the screen, remembering that it was done with 1970's technology and for children.
