The Black Cauldron

In the heart of a magical land, The Black Cauldron unfolds. Here, Taran (Grant Bardsley), an assistant pig-keeper turned unlikely hero, embarks on a quest to prevent the villainous Horned King (John Hurt) from obtaining the mystical black cauldron and unleashing its malevolent power upon the world. Joined by Princess Eilonwy (Susan Sheridan), Fflewddur Fflam (Nigel Hawthorne), and a creature named Gurgi (John Byner), Taran navigates through dangers untold in this 1985 Disney animated fantasy-adventure film. The movie is a thrilling blend of magic, danger, and courage, underpinned by its memorable characters and looming threat of dark forces.
