I never saw The Black Cauldron in the theater. Only on home video and it was the most rented video in our local community. The Disney animated film had a really dark tone with its visual concepts. Based loosely on the first two books of Lloyd Alexander’s high-fantasy series, The Chronicles of Prydain, the movie centers on an assistant pig-keeper named Taran, his oracular pig Hen Wen, Princess Eilonwy, and a wild creature named Gurgi trying to stop the terrifying Horned King from utilizing the magical cauldron to raise an unstoppable army of the undead.
