The movie’s plot is a combination of L. Frank Baum’s novels The Marvelous Land of Oz and Ozma of Oz, sequels to the novel The Wonderful Wizard of Oz. Six months after returning from the Land of Oz, Dorothy Gale has become a melancholic child who cannot stop dreaming of the people she met in the magical land

This was one of my favorite movies growing up. I think it’s an interesting take on the Oz mythology and surprisingly dark for a Disney movie.

Honestly, if you have any interest in seeing it, you should skip these clips and just watch the whole movie.

Here are some of the scarier scenes:

Dorothy going in for shock treatment at the asylum

Beware the Wheelers!

The decapitated heads of Princess Mombi

The Deadly Desert

Final encounter with the Gnome King

Anyone else have fond (or traumatic) memories of this film?
