This 3-D movie is similar to Jim Henson’s MuppetVision 4-D ride in MGM Studios. It co-ordinates action in the theater with what is happening on the screen. The theater looks like the middle of an anthill, with holes and tunnels everywhere. Keep an eye on some of these holes for an appearance by the protagonist, Flick played by TV’s Dave Foley.

Disney uses almost everything in their bag of tricks in this attraction, so look for the special effects in this performance to become legendary. (Even your senses of touch and smell are stimulated!)

The attendants of this ride repeatedly warn you about the severity of the ride, and they mean it. Older elementary school age kids can probably handle the intensity, but it’s unlikely young children will be able to sit through the show. There are segments of complete darkness and some genuinely scary moments.

Be warned; after seeing this attraction at least half a dozen times, I still have yet to see a show where a child hasn’t run out of the theater dragging a parent behind them. Judge for yourself. If you have the constitution, don’t miss this attraction. Lines can get long, but the wait goes quickly due to the Tree’s carvings and the funny posters mounted in the waiting area.
