Possibly not the worst animated feature the House Of Mouse has produced, but certainly stumbling around the darker recesses of the Disney vault, this little oddity concerns a young farm hand and his quest to rescue a psychic pig and the titular black cauldron.

The tone is far too sinister for children and yet too bland to appeal to adults, while the animation is distinctly and disappointingly lacklustre. Unless you're a hardcore Disney addict, give it a miss and buy Beauty And The Beast instead.
