The Easter Story (vhs) by Don Lusk

Substance: Part of a series of animated adventures of three children "archaeologists" who accidentally travel back in time to some major event. This story covers the Lord's Supper through the Resurrection, told in retrospective by "Mark" the gospel writer. The basic story is followed, with ample literary license for dramatic purposes. Suitable for children where accurate doctrine is not a primary concern.
Style: Animation is B-grade, typical of Saturday morning cartoons.

"Puss Gets the Boot" by Joseph Barbera

A mouse threatens to get a cat in trouble by breaking stuff.

There's only one laugh in the whole cartoon, and even that is just from shock value from violence.
