DVD Reviews of Faerie Tale Theatre - The Boy Who Left Home To Find Out About The Shivers

DVD Review: Loved it!!
Summary: 5 Stars

I think the title should have been "The Boy Who Got Kicked out of his home to find out about the shivers". Besides this, I loved every minute of this tale! It was my first time checking out this one, and I thought it was fun, especially at the end. It has everything-fun, horror, romance, etc. Peter MacNicol is kind of cute, too. I loved Christopher Lee-he is totally magnetic, with a commanding presence, plus an even powerful voice. All in all, great job!

DVD Review: Fairie Tale Not Just For Kids
Summary: 5 Stars

This is a great little flick. Children and adults alike will enjoy this feature. This scary story with touches of satire doesn't disappoint with good acting, good writing, and set design that's visual appealing considering the budget of the flick.

A young Peter Macnicol as Martin, Christopher Lee as the king, and Vincent Price as the narrator make this a quality show.

I loved this movie when I was a kid, and I ended up buying it as an adult. Watching it again now I enjoyed the jokes and some of the satire that I was too young to understand when I was a kid.

DVD Review: The Shivers
Summary: 2 Stars

Arguably one of the worst of the Faerie Tale Theatre series by Shelly Duvall. I don't see why People are saying this one is scary? this is far from scary. It would be laughable, but it's just to boring. It moves slow, and doesn't really do anything until it's already half way through the flick or more. I like to collect this series so regardless I am happy I got this one. I just got this one quicker than I should of based on certain reviews about it. I should have considered another faerie tale before getting this one. I have it now, had to get it sooner or later anyway I suppose.

DVD Review: A Graveyard Smash!!!
Summary: 5 Stars

Arguably the best of Shelley Duvall's Faerie Tale Theatre series, "The Boy Who Left Home..." is a macabre delight. Dragonslayer's Peter Macnicol is smart as the fearless boy and Christopher Lee is perfect as the son of Vlad the Impaler. An obvious homage to Lee's own British Hammer Horror films of the 50's with the narration of another genre favorite Vincent Price adding to the fun. Growing up in the 80's, I was entralled with the set design, actors and dry humor of this sensational series. Two or three aren't enough; buy all 26 of these priceless gems or buy the 4 disk set coming in January of 2005.

DVD Review: Hillarious, will be your favorite
Summary: 5 Stars

From the antics his family goes through to try to scare him, to the real ghosts of a haunted castle, "the boy who left home to find out about the shivers" is not phased. Granted, this is one of the scarrier faerie tale theatres, so maybe not good for children under 5 or 6, but will quickly become everyone's favorite episode.

Description of Faerie Tale Theatre - The Boy Who Left Home To Find Out About The Shivers

A cowardly king offers a young man who isn't afraid of anything all the riches in the land if he rid the castle of a ghost.
