Summary: Animated Disney magic and mythical fantasy in a battle of good against evil. We follow the adventures of a young assistant pig keeper, Taran, who has the mission of keeping the Black Cauldron from falling into the hands of the evil Horned King and his toad-like sidekick, Creeper.

Young would-be warrior Taran searches for the titular magic vessel, lest it fall into the dastardly hands of the evil Horned King and allow him to summon an army of the undead. Fortunately, assisting in his quest are a feisty princess, the furry, friendly Gurgi, and psychic pig Hen Wen. Unusually dark but highly acclaimed Disney fare, released to video thirteen years after its theatrical run. Based on the juvenile fantasy novel by Lloyd Alexander; part of the "Chronicles of Prydain" series. Gold Collection Edition features a spooky bonus cartoon.
