We've all seen those movies as a kid that kinda messed us up forever. Well for me the movie that did this was The Last Unicorn. I got this movie from my grandpa to start with. If you don't already know, I don't have many fond memories of my grandfather. He was kinda creepy and was a chain smoker. I've literally never seen this man without a smoke in his hand the whole time he was alive. Like he once set himself on fire trying to smoke in his sleep. If that's not the definition of a chain smoker, I don't want to know what is.
But one day I was at his house and saw this movie, The Last Unicorn on his TV stand. At the time I was super into unicorns (I still am actually) so I asked him about it and he told me to just take the movie with me, to which I gladly accepted.
So I went home and watched this movie and I remember, half of me absolutely loved it because, you know, Unicorns, but the other half of me was like "WTF".
The main two wtf things I remembered were the butterfly and the "Boob Tree".

Let's start with the butterfly. He was a singing butterfly that sung in riddles pretty much. That's not too creepy but it's still kinda weird. Like look at that little guy, he's pretty weird looking.

Now the boob tree. I'm not the only person to give the tree this name, pretty much all of the internet has. The Boob Tree grabs ahold of the magician and almost suffocates him with her breasts. This raises so many questions. Why does a tree have such bouncy boobs? Why does a tree even have boobs? Does the bark act as a shirt and that's why you don't see nipples, or does the tree just not have nipples? Why is the tree attempting to suffocate the magician? She's just trying to hug him, so does she not realize how powerful she is? Why does this tree have boobs? Have a mentioned that's kinda weird?
On the other hand, my favorite character was the woman that the unicorn meets. She's bitter and crabby and kinda brings the reality check to the rest of the group. All she ever wanted was someone to love her, and all she ever received was to be treated like a slave pretty much.
Also, you get the naked girl when the magician turns the main character from a unicorn into a woman.
Basically half of this movie just makes you think "Who said this should be a kids movie?"
