Fantasy movies of the 1960s are a time capsule of an age of imagination that has gone on to inspire some of the best fantasy movies and performances of all time. While these films blend a variety of genres and story types, many of the most prominent fantasy movies of the decade were produced by Walt Disney Studios. Both animated and live-action films garnered great success for Disney during the '60s, but this family-friendly fare isn't all the decade has to offer. Darker and more adult fantasy films drew older audiences to theaters and are great projects to rewatch today.
One of the reasons it's so fun to look back on works of speculative fiction from the 1960s is because the filmmakers had to be so creative with the use of visual effects. These projects use miniatures and beautifully constructed practical sets and make early forays into the use of animation in live-action projects.
