White Wilderness – Lemmings (1964)

A look at the enigmatic little lemming. A beautiful documentation of lemmings jumping their death even though this “fact” is really a myth. Filmmakers actually pushed the animals off a cliff to make this film which has earned the nickname of the “Disney snuff film”.

This film is available on the The Mouse Forgets… DVD

How Star Wars Ruined Educational Films

While the blockbuster Star Wars ignited the imaginations of a whole country and brought science-fiction to popular culture, there was an ugly side to this phenomenon. Science-fiction became a gimmick and educational film producers were quick to adopt anything that would get kids’ attention. The A/V Geeks present a DVD of educational films that feature sci-fi elements to make their points – often creating a bizarre, muddled mess of a film. Films include – Freedom 2000, Verbstar, Staying Away From Strangers, Lintola, Creatures of the Land and more!
