Terry Gilliam’s Jabberwocky (1977): Criterion Blu-ray review

The king's champion finally meets the monster in Terry Gilliam's Jabbberwocky (1977)

Terry Gilliam began to forge an identity separate from Monty Python with a film which seems superficially Pythonesque, but on closer look is a darker, richer and more dangerous view of an absurd world. Criterion’s new Blu-ray of Jabberwocky draws out every detail of a richly imagined Medieval world of blood, filth and horror viewed through Gilliam’s comic lens.
