Based on The Chronicles of Prydain book series, The Black Cauldron marked the halfway point in the Walt Disney Classics canon. This movie marked a departure from the traditional disney fairytale. In this one, the usual array of fluffy animals and pets were replaced with a more sinister style of character. Ogres and goblins were the order of the day with the highlight sidekick, Gurgi, being completely non-descript. If you want an example of the Disney quality being used for a magic/fantasy storyline, I would highly recommend this.
