Alakazam the Great

Based on a classical Chinese legend, Alakazam was one of the first Japanese anime films released in the United States, with Frankie Avalon lending the title character’s singing voice and Jonathan Winters voicing Sir Quigley Broken Bottom. Monkey king Alakazam’s arrogance leads him to misuse the magical powers he obtains from the magician Merlin; he also unwisely challenges King Amo, the supreme ruler of the heavens.
