Andrew Belling
Wizards is a 1977 American animated post-apocalyptic science fantasy film written, directed and produced by Ralph Bakshi and distributed by 20th Century-Fox. The film follows a battle between two wizards of opposing powers, one representing the forces of magic and the other representing the forces of technology.
The film is notable for being the first fantasy film by Bakshi, a filmmaker who was previously known only for "urban films" such as Fritz the Cat (1972), Heavy Traffic (1973) and Coonskin (1975), and who later made the animated version of The Lord of the Rings (1978). The film grossed US$9 million theatrically with a $2 million budget.
