Customer Rating:      Summary: Fun way to teach the multicultural aspects of Halloween Comment: This is one of my favorite cartoons to show to middle schoolers. We study Medieval Europe and this is the perfect way to talk about how all these different cultures contribute to Halloween as we now practice it. Ray Bradbury is my favorite author, so we read some of the book and the movie is narrated by him so you can use this to teach similes and metaphors. Great learning tool! But I wish it was on DVD!
Customer Rating:      Summary: Trick or Treat Comment: This story is absolutely wonderful for children who are old enough to sit still through a 1 hour movie. I remember watching this on television as a child and I never forgot it. It explains the origins, sights and symbols of Halloween in a fun and thrilling way.
Customer Rating:      Summary: very pleased Comment: I was so happy to find this rare family favorite! Arrived on time in better condition than I expected; reasonable price. Thank you!
Customer Rating:      Summary: Ray Bradbury's Movie "The Halloween Tree" Comment: This early 1990s movie is an absolute gem!! Not well known, but it should be. It is animated, and Sci-Fi guru Ray Bradbury does the narration, which is exceptional. Leonard (Mr. Spock) Nimoy is the voice of evil Moundshroud. At first glance the movie is about spooky Halloween doings, underneath, however, lies a story of friendship, love and loyalty. A close-knit group of best friends wait for their "leader", Pip, to join them for Halloween trict-or-treating. When he doesn't show, they get worried and go to his darkened house, where they find a note explaining that he has been taken to the hospital. On their way to find Pip, the group runs into Pip's spirit and follows it to a ghostly house inhabited by evil Moundshroud, a Dracula-type character. There they see the Halloween tree, loaded with the jack-o-lantern souls of thousands of others, with Pip being one of them. His spirit grabs his "soul" and leads them all, including Moundshroud, on a chase through centuries of cultures that explain the meaning of Halloween. I won't tell you the end, so you will have to see it for yourself! Terrific colorful animation, with an intriquing story line. Geared for kids, but adults will like it, also. This needs to be on CD! All I could find was the VHS, which I was happy to find because my 12-year-old copy is shot! Highly recommended.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Halloween Tree Comment: My children and I enjoy the Halloween tree ever fall, this is one of the ways we celebrate the Halloween season and will continue to do so for many years. Ray Bradbury was a wonderful writer, my only wish is that there could be sequel.
