Animal Farm is terrifying to children, everyone else.

Let me present to you the little-loved 1999 live-action Animal Farm. Stripped free of all allegory and attendant connotations (Stalin and Lenin, etc.) this well-dissected story becomes exactly what George Orwell originally subtitled it: a fairy-tale. A traumatizing fairy-tale of animal buchery, starring a cast of British Whore Actors straight out of Harry Potter or Lord of the Rings, marketed towards the family-friendly "Charlotte's Web" crowd.

Among its crimes:It changed the original ending of the book, pulling a fast 180 in the last 2 minutes. It was The Hallmark Channel's first original movie, but plays like the more demented scenes from "Summer of Sam." It took a full year to shoot and create the tangy mix of practical effects, trained animals and CGI polish. It cost 23 million dollars and lost approximately one zillion.

It is, without a doubt, one of the best worst movies ever.
