In 1997, Disney quickly and quietly released "Redux Riding Hood" into the festival circuit. It was originally meant to be the first of a series of updated, adult fairy tales, but this one proved too weird even for Disney. Although it was nominated for an academy award, Disney gave it very little exposure and then quickly hid it away. Recently, the creator of the cartoon, Steve Moore, posted it on his blog, and I am now posting it for you here. Stick with it, it starts slow but builds to a great finale. Listen for Adam West, Mia Farrow, Don Rickles, Fabio, Garrison Keillor as the narrarator and Michael Richards as the wolf. Disney made quite a few cartoons around this time that got limited release. It's a shame, because many of them are quite good. Enjoy this one, from Disney's Television Animation division.
