Return to Oz (1985)
If you’ve ever wondered what went wrong with Fairuza Balk’s childhood, listener David D. has the answer. That’s why he commissioned the dark-ass 1985 Disney flop “Return to Oz.”
Don’t be fooled by the made-for-TV movie poster, this sequel to 1939’s “The Wizard of Oz” is loaded with terrific effects including an animatronic talking chicken and a princess who can swap out her heads. The sets are amazing, the costumes are at least interesting, and the messages about childhood and mental illness are pretty advanced for a kids’ movie.
In this episode, the Shat Crew weighs Oz villains against one another, asks what exactly Wheelers do, suggests design improvements for Tik-Tok, shames Auntie Em and pays respects to an overlooked movie that never got the praise it deserved.
