"Return to Oz is a unique production, an unofficial sequel to the 1939 classic The Wizard of Oz, but made by Disney in the 80s. During that era, "dark fantasy" was booming with titles like The Dark Crystal (1982) and The NeverEnding Story (1984). This sequel, starring a young Fairuza Balk (The Craft), incorporates elements from Baum’s other Oz stories (like The Marvelous Land of Oz and Ozma of Oz) yet has its own identity, with a darker story and production design that feels from a different world. It’s also the only film directed by Walter Murch, an influential editor and sound designer who worked with Francis Ford Coppola on classics like The Godfather and Apocalypse Now."
