I heartily recommend this film to any lovers of fantasy films, but especially for anyone interested in top-notch stoop-motion special visual effects. Jack eventually saves the day, and Selina hugs Newald, undecided about her plans for retribution. After years of prayer and high hopes, finally a quality copy of JACK THE GIANT KILLER has been released. Jess sacrifices himself to distract the beast with his motorcycle, and is tragically squashed underfoot. With the world's military weapons ineffective against the beast, Jack must figure out how to get back down and save everyone from the oncoming threat. Meanwhile, Jack's girlfriend plants another beanstalk to rescue Jack, but Selina uses this beanstalk to take the beasts down to Earth so she can become its ruler. Newald confronts Selina as she is taking a bath in the middle of an empty room. Jack and his father explore the Land of the Clouds and visit the mysterious sorceress Selina in hope of finding a solution to their problem. Jack then suggests they go back down the beanstalk together, but Newald points out that "only he who plants the bean can travel the stalk". Jack explains to his father that Jess gave him the beans, and Newald fondly recalls that his friend never forgets a promise.
He further deduces that the following must be true: one day in this land is equivalent to one year on Earth. He is surprised that his son is now a legal adult but accepts that it must be true. For Jack, his father has been missing since birth, but Newald swears he has only been gone a few days. He is chased by a dinosaur-like monster and takes refuge in a nearby floating mechanical castle, which is revealed to be operated by his father.
After opening the gift and discovering it contains only beans, Jack tosses them into an empty field.ĭiscovering the beanstalk the next morning, Jack is trapped by a bean tendril, and carried up into the clouds to find a strange land.
Jack's mother, Sharon, believes Jess is "clinically insane" and wants Jack to forget about the ordeal. The stranger, Jess Walters, tells Jack that he never forgets a promise. WarnerBros.A man who appears crazy shows up at Jack's eighteenth birthday party claiming to have a gift from Jack's missing father, Newald Krutchens.
