Here Comes Peter Cottontail rating: 4
This is a classic holiday film that possesses the same quality as the original Rudolph. Vincent Price is a great villain as usual.

Great Easter Movie rating: 5
I bought this for my kids to watch. I remember it from when I was a kid. They loved it. They liked it better than the new Peter Cottontail Movie. I liked it too!

Only Rank & Bass Easter Classic charms rating: 5
Although "Amimagic" studios Rank & Bass produced over a dozen Christmas specials, they only made one Easter show and this is it! Charming re-imagining of the Peter Cottontail fable, with a year's worth of kid appeal. We follow Peter, who overslept and missed his attempt to become Official Easter Bunny, as he travels through one-year's time and almost every major holiday on the calendar. Think "Santa Claus Is Coming To Town" meets "Holiday Inn." I only wish the cute music packed an Irving Berlin punch.

Totally Delightful Easter Special From The Classic Team Of Rankin And Bass rating: 5
To me this delightful Easter special is everything that Easter should be for young children and adults alike. Coming from a far more innocent age of television "Here Comes Peter Cottontail", is one of the greatest creations from the Rankin and Bass team of animators who brought us of course the immortal television classics "Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer", and "Frosty the Snowman". Taking Easter as their theme here they have created a memorable lead character in the delightful Peter Cottontail and this special was a regular feature of our Easter viewing when I was growing up for many years. I still treasure this special now as an adult and in the beautifully restored DVD version of it now available I still marvel at the truly superb animation created here by this legendary team without the assistance of any computers. Definately an Easter classic, this funny and warm hearted story has most surely stood the test of time. In between my more religious themed viewing over this holiday I always include "Here Comes Peter Cottontail", and the other Rankin and Bass Easter themed special "The Easter Bunny is Comin' To Town", in my regular viewing and it's always a joy to revisit these "old friends", each Easter.
