Heathcliff: The Movie is a 1986 animated anthology children's comedy film from DiC Audiovisuel, released by Atlantic Releasing under their Clubhouse Pictures label. [4]
On a rainy day, Heathcliff ( Mel Blanc) recalls his past exploits to his three nephews (and a mouse), through a compilation of episodes originally broadcast on the TV series. [5]
After Heathcliff is finally finished telling his stories, his nephews angrily throw him out of the house. The movie ends with Heathcliff saying "Those are my boys!" and laughing.
The film was released theatrically on January 17, 1986, by Clubhouse Pictures. It was released on VHS in the 1980s and 1990s by Paramount Home Video, KVC Home Video, and GoodTimes Home Video. The film was released on DVD on May 25, 2004 by Sterling Entertainment Group. [6]
Heathcliff: The Movie grossed $508,305 on its opening weekend and grossed $2,610,686 domestically by the end of its run. It is the 8th highest grossing G-rated film of 1986. [3]
Caryn James of The New York Times stated that the film is "harmless", but thought that the children will be bored with this film. James also criticized the animation, the lip sync on the human characters, and the character of Heathcliff. [1]
