The first must-see film of the year.

This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes

And what a treat it is. Hosted by The Grand Pumpkin, we look back on some of the more "spooktacular" moments from various Disney movies and cartoons, spotlighting kooky villains and spooky situations. First up on the agenda, The Grand Pumpkin's dear old friend, Mad Madame Mim, recalling the time she and Merlin engaged in a Wizard's duel. Changing into various animals to get the better of one another, and well, when it comes to Merlin, when you mess with the goat, you get the horns. Literally. Next, we see that clip of Night on Bald Mountain from Fantasia. Beautifully animated and that music is captivating, and doesn't Chernabog look absolutely frightening? Following that eye and ear candy, we are shown a time where Mickey's imagination got the better of him when he hears a strange sound in his basement. So, rifle in hand, he ventures downstairs and is sure someone is following him. It's actually a pair of boots that got snagged by his gun, but Mickey is sure it's a killer and hides in the furnace. As if the mouse wasn't having enough trouble in his house, we are now treated to the time Ajax the gorilla escaped from the city zoo and terrorized Donald. This being right after his nephews pulled a prank on him by dressing as a gorilla. So when the real one shows up, Donald thinks it's another prank, but soon learns otherwise. A convenient radio broadcast suggests mastering any animal by looking him straight in the eye. Donald tries this, but only sees his own gravestone. So he stuffs an umbrella in its mouth and runs.Ajax continues to terrorize Donald and chases him all over his enormous house, until finally he finds himself trapped in a collapsible table. That's when the radio announcer chimes in and says tear gas is all that can subdue Ajax. Luckily the boys happen to have some lying around, so they toss it at the murderous primate, causing him to burst into tears. Donald too. Next, we join to Pluto who, after chasing some obnoxious cats out of the yard, is experiencing fatigue and is trying to sleep, but Figaro won't stop pestering him. Eventually the sand dog finally arrives and puts him to sleep... you know what I mean. As he snoozes, Pluto dreams of being put on trial by a bunch of cats who instantaneously find him guilty. Going back to infamous villains, Captain Hook is next in the spotlight as we recall the time he captured Wendy, John, Michael and the Lost Boys, and left a wrapped "surprise package" for Peter, making him think it was from Wendy. Little did he know the package was a time bomb. Thankfully Tinkerbell overheard and came to the rescue just in time. Remember when Cruella De Vil gave a furious road chase after the 101 dalmatians who tried to disguise themselves as Labradors? Man, who's the daredevil who gave her a license? So, after we see the wicked queen give Snow White a poisoned apple, we recall the time Lady was harassed by two cunning Siamese cats. Finally, we hear the story of the Headless Horseman who stalks the woods at night. This is very unsettling to Ichabod Crane, who has to ride home in said woods. At first everything is quiet...too quiet. Suddenly, the Horseman strikes! Good lord, he's terrifying! The air filled with his menacing cackle, a sharp sword in hand ready to lop off poor Ichabod's head. The stalwart man raced for his life, knowing that once he crossed the bridge, he'd be safe. But he didn't count on the Headless Horseman throwing his flaming pumpkin head through the covered bridge at him. Odds are, he didn't make it. Well, see you tomorrow...maybe.Ah, pure Disney nostalgia. If you like the movies and cartoons spotlighted here, and you're a fan of Halloween, this is a must. I remember this special exposed me on to The Sword in the Stone and 101 Dalmatians, showing the two most memorable scenes from the movies. I've seen a total of two versions of this special. The first one had a shortened intro and excluded the Sleepy Hollow segment, and instead ended with a cartoon of Mickey, Donald and Goofy trying to rid a house of ghosts. So this Halloween, I definitely recommend Disney's Halloween Treat, from back in the days when the company actually stood for something. Wonderful animation, beautiful music, extraordinary stories and situations, it's Disney at its finest. Check it out, show it to your kids, expose them to the true Disney classics. Don't worry if it seems scary for them, it's only cartoons, and besides, being scared sometimes is good for you. Happy Halloween!

As a child, I was one of many that had the pleasure of watching Disney's Halloween Treat! It's such a fun memory from my childhood because it was something that all of us grandkids shared together! We always watched it at Grandma's because she has it taped. Her taped copy of the program is the ONLY copy I have ever seen of it and there is no way five of us will be able to split it. I hope Disney decides to release Disney's Halloween treat on DVD in possibly both versions. That would be so cool! If you have never seen the program you should get on "youtube" or find someone who has it taped and see it! I like it mostly because I grew up with it and I LOVE Halloween! My favorite part is the last of the program "the legend of sleepy hollow". I guess its because I love the story of the headless horseman and its narrated by Bing Crosby! Bing is the man! He has such a soothing and likable voice that you can't help but love em'! My next favorite would be "Night on Bald Mountain" which when I was growing up, Night on Bald Mountain was seen for what is it.....a piece of beautiful music and a interesting story behind the music. Today, I fear the religious extremists out there would take it to another level and find it unsuitable for children.Bringing back such programs as "Disney's Halloween Treat" I think would help restore what my generation has lost in a good ol' Halloween. Today, although people still take their children trick or treating, some of the classic fun has gone away like, the classic television shows that we all knew and loved, toilet papering, staying out late, and good ol' boogyman stories. Halloween is supposed to be fun and do I dare say.....spoooky? Perhaps if we could watch a television show from our past like this one we can remember the good ol' days and maybe recapture them

I enjoyed this video with my children. I really like some of the old Disney footage with Pluto and Donald Duck. There are some older classic bits in the video. Kids may find that it moves too slow, compared to the way cartoons move so quickly now, etc. But it is still a lot of fun. The movie does a nice job using the concept of a jack-o-lantern as the MC. The jack-o-lantern takes you on a trip through history of old Disney villains. The old Headless Horseman video is worth the price of rental or your viewing time by itself. There are a few spots that may be scary for little kids. But for the most part, I think your entire family would enjoy the movie. Try If you are a fan of the old classic Disney animation, you will really enjoy this movie.

Disney's Halloween Treat was one of those Halloween traditions my family always made sure was completed. Every year my sister and I would fling ourselves on the floor in front of the TV, lights off and candles lit, waiting for it to begin. Although we have it on tape, in time part of it was deleted and the video is becoming older and harder and harder to hear and view, but even in my teen years, I pull it out and watch it every Halloween! It is a wonderful special, with memorable Disney clips, and fun and spooky adventures. Kudos to the narrator; his voice is amazing and sets the mood PERFECTLY! This special is pure Disney magic at its "spookiest"!
