This is great.  I grew up watching these.

I had a great nostalgia flashback when I bought THE WONDERFUL LAND OF OZ on DVD from Something Weird.  I remember seeing it in the theater with my mother at a Saturday matinee when I was about 6 years old and the witch scared me.  Watching it as an adult brought back a ton of memories of other cheapo movies from a company called "Childhood Productions" that were popular when I was a kid.  If you ever have a chance to see THE WONDERFUL LAND OF OZ, I think you'll be delighted by the super cheap sets (apparently it was filmed at an amusement park in Florida), costumes, and make-up.  It's like watching a grammar school stage play.  The DVD also has an equally cheesy copy of JACK AND THE BEANSTALK.  It would be great if someone released all the old "Childhood Productions" movies in a boxed set!
