The 40th anniversary of the fantasy horror film produced by Disney Studios. This is an unofficial sequel to the original 1939\u2019s \u2018Wizard of Oz\u2019 but the result is much more dark and channeling the spirit of the original \u2018Oz\u2019 book series by Frank L. Baum.<\/p>\n

The film\u2019s plot is based on the book \u201cThe Marvelous Land of Oz\u2019 and \u2018Ozma of Oz\u2019. This film was nominated for an Academy Award in the special effects category.<\/p>\n

This film takes place six months after Dorothy\u2019s first adventure in the land of Oz. When Dorothy returns to Kansas she finds it very hard to readjust to her former life on the family ranch. Her ongoing obsession with the land of Oz causes her to lose sleep and is worrying her aunt and uncle. Dorothy\u2019s aunt takes her to a clinic that specializes in Electro-therapy performed by the scary nurse Wilson. The scared Dorothy escapes the clinic and somehow finds herself back in Oz. Dorothy is appalled to find that Oz had been taken by the evil munchkin king and the evil witch Mombi.<\/p>\n

Again Dorothy embarks on a perilous journey to save Oz, this time accompanied by a talking hen, a Pumpkinhead Jack-O-lantern and a mechanical man called Tik-Tok. The British actress Jean Marsh had caused nightmares to thousands of innocent children watching this film- come find out why.<\/p>\n
