The epic animated fantasy from renowned director Ralph Bakshi is getting a limited edition digibook Blu-ray release in March.
In an early announcement to retailers, 20th Century Fox will be releasing 'Wizards: 35th Anniversary Edition' on Blu-ray on March 13.
Set on a post-apocalyptic Earth, this fantasy adventure follows the story of Avatar, the kindly, eccentric sorcerer-ruler of Montagar, a rainbow paradise inhabited by elves and fairies. Avatar's evil brother, Blackwolf, dominates Scortch, a bleak land of goblins and wraiths. When the power-hungry Blackwolf attacks Montagar, Avatar, accompanied only by a spirited young woman and a courageous elf, must enter the darkness of Scortch to save his world.
The limited edition digibook Blu-ray release is a must-have for fans and collectors, featuring 24-pages of amazing artwork from the film, some of the artwork never-before-seen, and a special message from Bakshi!
Suggested list price for the Blu-ray is set at $19.99.
