Hänsel und Gretel (1987)

Hänsel und Gretel: Directed by Len Talan. With David Warner, Hugh Pollard, Nicola Stapleton, Emily Richard. Based on the fairy tale by The Brothers Grimm. Hansel and Gretel are abandoned after the famine strike in the village and where Hansel and Gretel are later trapped in the deceptively decorated house of the witch Griselda who wishes to fatten Hansel so that he may be baked into a delicious gingerbread treat.

“I think this is a great movie from the Cannon Theatre… but you might want to keep it away from extremely young kids. it scared me so badly that even today, at 19, I have to fast forward through scenes. There are things that just scar you … ya know? Grizelda the Witch was more terrifying than the Witch of the West in u0026quot;Wizard of Ozu0026quot;. All around, a very good farie tale, but not my favorite out of the series.”
