TransAtlantyk Children and adults alike will adore this great movie about the origins of Halloween and other similar holidays around the world. The animation creates a near pitch-perfect Halloween and deep autumnal mood and Ray Bradbury's narration contributes considerably to the nostalgic Halloween mood. The movie doesn't contain anything that would offend most children or that the parents of these children wouldn't want their kids to see. I wouldn't exactly call it a history lesson but it does provide context to the Halloween holiday in a very entertaining way with splendid animation that sets the mood throughout.I don't let a single Halloween pass without making a big bowl of popcorn and watching The Halloween Tree on a dark October night. I do this by myself as a grown adult which should speak to its quality. Give it a try and I am willing to wager that it will become a new seasonal favorite, well worth the excessive price you might pay for a VHS over the internet.

iluvcatch13 I have finally found the name of this movie!I have searched for a long time with no success. Now that I have found it I have to say that The Haloween Tree is one of the best movies about Halloween that I have ever seen. My family would always watch it on TV at our Halloween party, but I was so young at the time I didn't care about the title but this movie is a great Halloween classic and I recommend it to anyone who loves the classics. Even though the animation isn't top notch high-def, it is still a very enjoyable movie with a good plot line. I think that somehow someone needs to get this great classic back on air. It's the Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown has been running for a long time and is a classic, I believe that The Halloween Tree should be shown along with that as a Halloween special.

ncress31 I always watched this movie when I was a kid. I haven't saw it since I was about 5 years old. I would really like to get this movie somehow! I love the storyline, the adventure, and the feel of the movie. When I was a kid it kind of scared me the first time i saw it. After that I was hooked. This movie is great. It sounds like I'm in love with it. But I'm really not I just have wanted to see it since ten years ago. So if anybody has this movie i would really love to have it. I will give you my address and everything. If you live close enough to me I would be glad to come and pick it up myself. But I don't want to be charged a lot for it. Even though I would probably give in to a higher price since I need this movie.

thatsme40 This is a cartoon that adults as well as children will enjoy. It helps to explain the why's of some of Halloween's favorite traditions. It was very well drawn and acted. Although some parts may frighten smaller children all in all it is very entertaining.
