  Return to Oz



Dorothy (Fairuza Balk)



just hasn't been the same since she got back from Oz, & her Aunt Em (Piper Laurie)



is worried. Dorothy gets sent to a clinic to begin shock therapy but instead returns to an unfamiliar land where the Yellow Brick Road lies in ruins. With the help of a walking jack o' lantern, a wind-up robot & a flying sofa, she rises against an evil, many-headed princess & a wicked king made of stone.



Rated PG 1 hour 49 minutes 1985

2 stars. kinda boring...Fairuza does a great job portraying Dorothy but the rest of the story just seems like a rehash of the original...just worse. I would love to read the books to see if the series is better than the movies...most likely is!

The man who wrote the "Oz" series was born and raised a little west of here in Chittenango, NY. I was surprised to learn that there was a whole series of Oz books out there. Also I learned that the movie(Wizard of Oz)wasn't the first "Oz" movie on film.

I knew there was a series but I didn't realize that Wizard of Oz wasn't the first...will definitely have to look for the books now.

it is
The book this is drawn from doesn't have Dorothy in it, but another character.

hmmmm now that makes a little more sense. Will really need to look for these books now & read them so I can get the real story instead of the Hollywood version.
