5.0 out of 5 stars Great DVD with great cartoons, February 3, 2004

By 

Christopher (Florida, USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Casper the Friendly Ghost: By the Old Mill Scream (DVD)

There's nothing fancy about this DVD, no real extras to speak of. But you just get a bunch of solid, good-looking Casper cartoons from the 1950s. The picture and sound is good, the stories delightful. My children love watching them and they make a nice compliment to some of the more hyper cartoons of today. The only note is that because they are from the 50s, there are some things that are not so P.C., such as sterotypical portrayals of Native Americans, etc.

5.0 out of 5 stars Grand kids have me watching Casper again, September 23, 2009

This review is from: Casper the Friendly Ghost: By the Old Mill Scream (DVD)

My grand kids (ages 6 and 4) have fallen in love with Casper. While ordering each of them a DVD of Casper to put in their Halloween baskets, I realized that it is hard to know which ones to order. I have found there is no product information about which episodes are on each DVD and some of the cartoons overlap onto other DVD. Some reviews are helpful as they list the episodes, so I will list which ones come on this disk. I haven't opened this as it is a gift, but the front says By the Old Mill Scream PLUS 9 other cartoons. When I flip it over these are the titles listed:

Boo Scout

Boo Kind to Animals

Boos and Arrows

Bull Fright

By the Old Mill Scream

Cage Fright

Casper Comes to Clown

Casper Genie

Casper Takes A Bow Wow

That only lists 9 total so I don't know if something else is on it. The running time listed is 60 minutes. Hope this list is helpful to you in picking out a DVD you will enjoy.
