Back of the Box:
From legendary filmmakers George Lucas and Ron Howard comes one of the most beloved fantasy tales of all time. This groundbreaking film features stunning special effects, dazzling action and a classic battle between good and evil.
When young Willow Ufgood (Warwick Davis) finds an abandoned baby, he is suddenly thrust into an adventure filled with magic and danger. According to an ancient prophecy, the sacred child is destined to end the reign of the evil sorceress Queen Bavmorda (Jean Marsh). Now, with only a single swordsman (Val Kilmer) at his side, Willow must overcome the forces of darkness that threaten to destroy anyone who stands in the Queen's way!

Notes:

George Lucas, midget lover, came up with the story for this movie, but the screenplay based on Lucas' story was written by Bob Dolman.
The original wand for the movie was an actual piece of wood, but everyone was scared that it would break, so it was swapped early on for one made out of fiberglass.
Because this movie failed to be the smash hit Lucas had hoped for, Lucas chose to finish out the series in two more books rather than 2 more movies as originally planned.
Val Kilmer injured his foot when between takes he got out of his cage and the chain holding his prison fell on his foot. You can actually see him limp in some scenes if you have a careful eye.
