Jack and the Witch

Back in 1967, Toei Animation made a feature-length animated film in between a couple of Anime:Cyborg 009 movies. This movie was called Shōnen Jakku to Mahōtsukai, which directly translates to The Boy Jack and the Witch. A few years later, this was brought over to America, where it was dubbed and became a perennial favourite on KTLA-TV, where it was shown every All Hallow's Eve.

Sadly, the English dub has yet to receive an official DVD release, but it can be found if you look hard enough.

Includes examples of

 * Alliteration: Barnaby Bear, Dinah Dog and Harvey Harpy.
 * Aerith and Bob: Or in this case, Allegra and Jack.
 * Determinator: No matter what you throw at them, Jack and his friends will not give up.
 * Face Heel Turn: Happens to Squeaker.
 * Fate Worse Than Death: The Cavern of Ice.
 * Five-Man Band: Jack is The Hero, and The Lancer is... well, everyone else, really.

 * Nice Mice: Squeaker, although he isn't nice for much of the movie...
 * Oh Crap: The Queen has two of these;.
 * Save the Villain: Jack immediately nurses Allegra back to health when she's injured trying to kidnap him and his friends... again. His friends immediately Lampshade this, pointing out just how stupid it is, given how many times she's tried to capture them, and suspect he's falling for her.
 * Take Over the World: This appears to be the Queen's goal.
