Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaPart of the "Cannon Movie Tales" series, nine feature films based on classic fairy tales that were produced by Menahem Golan and Yoram Globus for the Cannon Group in the mid 1980s. All of the films featured well-known actors from the U.S. and U.K. and were shot on-location in Israel. Although the series was originally conceived to have sixteen films, production stopped at nine when Rumpelstiltskin (1987) flopped at the box office, and the remaining films were sent directly to video. Despite their commercial failure, the Movie Tales garnered a cult following after the Disney Channel began airing them as "Storybook Cinema" in 1988. The nine films in the series are: The Frog Prince (1986), Sleeping Beauty (1987), The Emperor's New Clothes (1987), Rumpelstiltskin (1987), Snow White (1987), Beauty and the Beast (1987), Hansel and Gretel (1987), Puss in Boots (1988), and Red Riding Hood (1987).

Featured review
Beautiful disaster
There's a very good reason why I decided to make this a 10. This has to be the worst movie I have ever seen. From the costumes, to the acting and even the singing, it was horrible. I loved every single second of it. The fact that Morgan Fairchild is in this and does a terrible job just makes it better. I like to think of myself as a connoisseur of Sleeping Beauty movies, and I've loved every single one of them. This one is absolutely no exception. If you love really bad movies as much as I do,this is the one for you.
I did find it interesting that they took a turn from the well known versions of Sleeping Beauty and added an elf. However, the fact that they've used nine fairies as opposed to 4 is more in line with the written adaptation. So, in conclusion, two very enthusiastic thumbs up.
