The fairly newly released DVD is cool because it has audio commentary by the director, Ike Eisenmann and Kim Richards. After all these years, Kim Richards' voice sounds exactly the same. Kim and Ike comment how wonderful Eddie Albert and some of the other actors were to work with -- very professional and treated them with respect. It is quite a fun audio commentary. Kim and Ike explain how some of the special effects worked.
Movie itself has very COOL special effects -- the best part being when the coat and hat "came alive" to terrorize the sheriff of that redneck town. Nobody felt bad for the sheriff because he was so creepy.
Any movie that has interaction with kids and animals will be enjoyable for kids and this one features horses, dogs, a cat and a bear. What kid cannot relate to this? That aspect does make it appealing to kids.
Unfortunately, a really bad script makes this movie plodding and not as interesting as it could be. I almost like the sequel better because Bette Davis is so over the top and Christopher Lee is such a fun guest star.
