With a box office flop and almost no lasting buzz, this one could be a tough watch. Keep your phone handy.
Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.Is it for you?
- Who'll love it
- Great for anyone building a Halloween watchlist and animation lovers. Spooky-season viewing, made for October nights.
- The mood
- Feel-good.
- The pace
- Bright and bouncy, at 23 min. Short enough for a weeknight.
- What might put you off
- No age rating on record, so check it first for young kids.
- Made in 1972: an older pace and style.
- Skip it if you can't get past animation (your loss).
A leprechaun, who had changed himself into a pumpkin seed to hibernate for the winter, comes to life as Mr. Jack O'Lantern, who then uses his pumpkin shell to help scare away Zelda the Witch and Archibald the Warlock.
