The Black Cauldron (1985)
from Alcohollywood
This week on Alcohollywood, Nathan Roebbel of the Right Brain Project joins us as we dig into the Disney archives to take a look at the long-forgotten animated flick The Black Cauldron! The movie is an adaptation of an obscure Welsh-inspired fantasy book series following the adventures of a meek pig-keeper named Taran, who must fight off the Horned King (John Hurt) and destroy a magical cauldron that can create an army of the undead. Released in 1985 after a contentious production process, the film isn't done any favors by its half-hearted attempts at darker material and flat, samey characters – one must lament the film that could have been. Still, we've got all the tools to help you lament right here, with our custom cocktail and drinking rules! (We've also got our audio review of Klingon Warnog from the Federation of Beers, for all your geeky drink needs.) Listen below!
