IMDb Wikipedia
(DVD, Columbia TriStar)
An evil sorcerer is arrested and banned from the kingdom by its king. He vows to get revenge, and later kills the king, kidnaps the princess and turns her into a swan at his remote castle. She turns into a human on certain moonlit nights and can only be permanently changed by a profession of a vow of love. Enter the prince of a nearby kingdom who was promised to her as children. He seeks her out following clues left by the dying king. He must defeat the sorcerer in his true form, a giant beast, and profess his love for the princess before she too is killed. Unexpectedly dark tale made by some disgruntled former Disney animators. It would fit right in with the animated Disney "renaissance" of the 90s, letdown only by an unmemorable soundtrack.
