Welcome to this week's episode of The Video Store Podcast . This week, I'm focusing on animated movies that lean into darker themes and mature storytelling. These aren't your typical Saturday morning cartoons or Disney films. They're imaginative, ambitious, and not afraid to explore the more complicated corners of life.Let's dive into the four films I'm recommending this week.1. Watership Down (1978)This adaptation of Richard Adams' novel is often remembered for its striking animation and unflinching depiction of survival. On the surface, it's a story about rabbits searching for a safe place to call home, but the film works on deeper levels, touching on themes like leadership, sacrifice, and the brutal realities of nature.Director Martin Rosen made the choice to stay true to the novel's tone, which makes this film stand out from other animated projects of the time. The voice cast is strong, John Hurt as Hazel and Richard Briers as Fiver bring a lot of emotion to their roles. The animation is hand-drawn, with detailed backgrounds that create a world that feels both beautiful and dangerous.2. The Last Unicorn (1982)Based on Peter S. Beagle's novel, The Last Unicorn has a dreamlike quality that sets it apart from other animated films of its time. It tells the story of a unicorn searching for her lost kind, encountering both friends and enemies along the way. While the animation was produced by Rankin/Bass, the actual work was done by a Japanese studio that would later become Studio Ghibli, which might explain the film's unique visual style.This voice cast is great. Mia Farrow voices the Unicorn, Jeff Bridges plays Prince Lir, and Christopher Lee is unforgettable as King Haggard. Lee was reportedly a huge fan of the book and even brought his own copy to recording sessions to ensure his performance stayed faithful to the source material.The soundtrack, provided by the band America, gives the movie a melancholy, almost folk-like feel that complements its tone.3. The Secret of NIMH (1982)Don Bluth made his directorial debut with this adaptation of Mrs. Frisby and the Rats of NIMH by Robert C. O'Brien. The film tells the story of a widowed field mouse, Mrs. Brisby, who must save her home and sick child with the help of highly intelligent rats.What makes The Secret of NIMH stand out is how dark and detailed it is. Bluth and his team left Disney to make this film because they wanted to push the boundaries of animation, and it shows. The level of detail in the animation is stunning, especially in the rats' lair, which feels alive with glowing lights and intricate designs.The score by Jerry Goldsmith is sweeping and dramatic, which matches the film's high stakes. And while it's technically a kids' movie, it doesn't shy away from mature themes like death, ethics, and the consequences of human interference with nature.4. Heavy Metal (1981)If you're into sci-fi, fantasy, or anthology storytelling, Heavy Metal is one to check out. It's based on the magazine of the same name and features multiple stories connected by a mysterious glowing orb called the Loc-Nar. The animation is bold, with an unapologetically adult tone. Even though I saw it as a kid, I think this one is definitely not for kids.What's interesting about Heavy Metal is how it pulls from different art styles, with each segment feeling distinct. The soundtrack is packed with rock and heavy metal tracks from bands like DEVO, Black Sabbath, Blue Öyster Cult, and Journey, giving it a unique energy.Each of these films pushes the boundaries of what animated storytelling can do, whether through their themes, visual style, or just their ambition. They're all worth watching if you're looking for something that goes beyond the typical animated fare. That's it for this week's episode of The Video Store Podcast.

Childhood trauma, addiction, poverty, homophobia, religious extremism and disability are just some of the hard-hitting themes in filmmaker Adam Elliot's new dark and humorous film "Memoir of a Snail". The Oscar winner speaks to Eve Jackson about this whimsical and tear-jerking Australian stop-motion film about separated twins, which won the Cristal award for best feature at Annecy, the world's top animation festival. The feature also took the top prize at the London Film Festival last year and was nominated for a Golden Globe.
