Unfortunately, Eric, the lone shoemaker of Grimmsville, makes shoes that are miserably uncomfortable and impossible to walk in. . .leaving a lot of barefoot villagers and Eric without a means to provide for his family. While his wife tries to be supportive, his daughter Shannon just can't take it anymore! Sitting alone in the woods pondering her family's fate, Shannon is confronted by a stranger who offers her the deal of a lifetime. . . in exchange for her torturous pair of shoes, she is given a magical medallion that holds the charm of the elves. Wanting to help her family, Shannon tries the chant. Her words beckon a pair of elves that show up night after night at the shoemaker's home creating the most fabulous shoes EVER! With his shoes now wanted throughout the land, Eric and his family have more gold than they can count. But they quickly begin to realize that all the money in the world doesn't necessarily buy happiness.

Hansel & Gretel
In this twist on the classic fairy tale, Hansel and Gretel are actually Hank and Gertie, two poor children from the hills of Appalachia.

Little Red Riding Hood

Synopsis:
This is a fun new twist on the old kid's favorite in which a pair of bungling wolves try to outwit our fast-talking heroine on her way to Granny's house. Will they catch her before tying each other in knots or falling off a cliff? Will they turn on each other before they can sing "the Red Riding Hood Blues"? And will anyone remember Little Red's real name? A loving tribute to classic Warner Brothers and Tex Avery cartoons, this wisecracking original comedy is suitable for children and adults of all ages.
