[PW] Movie Stumper

[Sherrie Langston Hardin]

Thanks, Ellen. I just asked the patron and he said it was not an
animated show, but "lots of special effects." I was certain you had it
nailed ... I think this will be one of those days he spends with us ...

  I had no luck trying to identify this movie.
