Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
This was originally a TV special sponsored by a department store chain, which explains the 54-minute runtime and unhinged energy.
The 'sacrificial wish' plot mirrors 1940s melodramas, but with a cow. This is either genius or a symptom of 90s direct-to-video desperation.
