And here is the feature of the feature: Joseph: King of Dreams is an oddity. It tries desperately to be The Prince of Egypt —the same swirling sand animation, the same divine intervention—but with a fraction of the budget.
To help me provide more details about this VHS, let me know:
Joseph: King of Dreams is not a great film. But the opening of its VHS tape? That is a perfect time capsule of the year 2000—a moment when Hollywood was still figuring out how to do direct-to-video, and we were all just trying to rewind correctly.
Finally, the screen goes black. The opening chords of begin—a pop ballad by Jaci Velasquez that sounds suspiciously like a rejected Celine Dion track.
