O.K., start with this one:
[attachment=]3279[/attachment]
I had searched for this film in streaming format, & found one that I thought simply could not be the same film, though the title was the same. It was not a science fiction, but fantasy, set in the ancient world. I did find what appeared to be the correct film, but I refuse to endure the MST3K format; that one opened with a modern setting, as I recall, it was a carnival.

Oops, I think the FROZEN WORLD is the one I was thinking of, here:

Everything I said about World W/o end should have been said about this one.

ahhh yes. The Russian witch movie. Made by the Finns (the Finns were Nazi allies, and Russian enemies,the Russians had benn saved from Napoleon and Hitler by the cold freezing Winter winds,So here all that salvation is Witchcraft???) and Soviet whatever. "Sampo!"
Sampo (Russian: Сампо is a Russian and Finnish language 1959 joint Finnish and Soviet production based loosely on the events depicted in the Finnish national epic Kalevala. A significantly edited version called The Day the Earth Froze was released internationally. This version was later featured in the American series Mystery Science Theater 3000. The original Russian version has not been released on video or DVD.
Western equivalent "Cornucopia".
Allegorical depiction of the Roman goddess Abundantia with a cornucopia, by Rubens (ca. 1630)

Do you believe in "Black Magic?" "Witchcraft?" "Fairies?" or evil spirits?

That witch is nothing compared to the magic Fairy of Fantasyland. Maleficent.
To get this magic you need to pluck off your own breasts according to ancient scrolls. Then sampo will be yours.

In otherwords only a witch would save the Soviets from destruction at the hands of the Axis powers. But Maleficent has the "Cup of Tempests!" According to the ancient scrolls. And in 5days she will arise in Fantasy land, and sweep aside the good fairies and exact her revenge. She will attempt to twist things so that she gets sympathy and makes herself the herione wro ged by the Royal line of the crusader King Richard the Lionheart. The cup of Tempests will overtake her and those that Love her. Very terrible according to the Elder scrolls. The Mythos of the Fairies and elves. Santa is an Elf you know.

I mean I worked for Saul Zaentz, king of the Hollywood Producers. A Saul Bought the rights to the Lord of The Rings. The Tarot that went with it. The whole of Fantasyland is drenched in Enchantments! Some of the things they play with should not have been taken so lighty as a jest and joke of vanity. If you studied or read any of the curriculum it would take to write a script with Lovecraftian or Shamanistic lore as the basis, you would be watching the Evil Fairy Maleficent translate into the Transmat of Walt Elias Disney. All Fantasyland. Which in Walt Elias Disney's constructs actually exist as a real living Gestalt.

Tat was as clear as tar. my comment was that I could not find the version on MST3K anywhere but on MST3K, & I refuse to watch that type of thing.

[cybotron]

Ok, in otherwords, a student of Mwerlinic Lore in or the Mythos of England and Merlin and fairy lore would be watching the rise of a Merlinic Dragon. Fot real.
Disney is 1950's bw and color. The Sleeping Beauty was defined by him. And is at the core of all Fantasy land. Europa Centrax.Euro Psychic Heaven. Royal. Kings and princes and princesses under Enchantment. No Enchantment stronger than Maleficent and the Sleeping Beauty Enchantment. In the interior Royal Courts.

Thanks for the heads up, I never saw that movie before. Plot was like a cross between "When worlds collide" and "The Time Machine" with props that looked like they came out of STTOS. Good movie!

I had been thinking that nobody even cared anymore, so why bother?

So glad you enjoyed it, Tetsuwan Penguin!
