This story was written by a british paratrooper that survived the Bridge Too Far debacle at Arnhem. He said him and his mates felt like little rabbits trying to survive and it inspired him to write this novel. Some of that harsh war reality definitely comes through with these sorts of scenes and the comradery, leadership and self sacrifice the rabbits exhibit in tough situations

To OP. Why doesn't anybody *fact check* before they tell an "amazing story" they've heard from somebody who heard it from somebody?? A simple Google check or Wiki well tell you this:"In July 1940, Adams was called up to join the British Army. He was commissioned into the Royal Army Service Corps and was selected for the Airborne Company, where he worked as a brigade liaison. He served in Palestine, Europe, and East Asia but saw no direct action against either the Germans or the Japanese." *saw no direct action against either the Germans or the Japanese.* Then where does the story that he participated in Operation Market Garden come from? On Straitstimes you can read this:"He enlisted in the British army as a supply officer and reportedly spent time in Palestine, France, the Netherlands, Denmark, India and Singapore, although he never saw combat." *never saw combat* "his story was written by a british paratrooper" (your words) Richard Adams served in the Royal Army Service Corps. What are they tasked with? The Royal Army Service Corps (RASC) was the unit responsible for keeping the British Army supplied with provisions. The exceptions were weaponry and ammunition, which were supplied by the Royal Army Ordnance Corps. They (RASC) worked with the supply of food, water, fuel and domestic materials such as clothing, furniture and stationery. Well that sure is some work for a "paratrooper". Considering that the British paratroopers were cut-off at Arnhem and no reinforcements or relief ever managed to reach them I wonder how the Royal Army Service Corps got there (sarcasm). Especially since all roads were clogged up. The writer also said that the land in Watership Down is based on the place he grew up in as a child.

"In his autobiography, The Day Gone By, Adams wrote that he based Watership Down and the stories in it on his experiences during Operation Market Garden, the Battle of Arnhem, in 1944. The character of Hazel, the leader of the group of rabbits, was modelled on Adams's commanding officer, Major John Gifford. He gave the warrior Bigwig the personality of Captain Desmond Kavanagh, who is buried at the Airborne Cemetery in Oosterbeek, The Netherlands."

I haven’t seen the whole movie, so I can’t judge the plot, but I find the extreme gore of these scenes (the blood, the horrific eyes, the insistance on super-slow close-ups of abhorrent faces and features) simply distasteful and unnecessary. I don’t think a good storyteller needs to be so explicitly obnoxious to generate fear. Clearly not a film for kids, IMO.

@@jay_vng - You'd need to see the whole movie for things to make sense. This video explicitly takes the most violent and disturbing scenes out of context. I think to give things their full context (and in fairness I didn't read about this until later) it's important to mention that this was the mid-to-late '70s... The book was not necessarily aimed at children, but the eventual audience for the book was mostly what we'd call "Young Adult" today. Back then, there wasn't really that distinction. To sanitise the tone and violence of the book for the movie would have been a major disservice to the source material. While the BBFC did classify the movie as "U" (Suitable for all), the poster used to advertise it showed Bigwig in silhouette with the snare around his neck - that did not indicate suitability for younger children!

Remember someone who really loved this movie saying "watership down isn't a violent movie, the violence is just a part of it, don't compare it to graphic media". So i came to watch what everyone was hyping up as so traumatic. Even as an adult who loves this genre of movie, and much darker horror than that, i have to say... i really can't blame anyone for just thinking of it as the violent rabbit movie. i HAVE seen much worse, but the way the blood is animated, the artistic representations of the rabbits' horrors, i mean... jesus christ? it may only be 7 minutes, less if you don't found the field scene, but what IS there is still way more graphic than what you'd normally see, even in your Scary kids movies like NIHM. and the score turns what might have just been a sad or tense moment in a nature documentary into something outright horrifying. at the same time, i definitely wanna see the whole thing now.

I remember going to stay with some friends when I was about 10. They lived in a massive country house and in the garden were wild rabbits that was all open area. This cartoon came into my mind straight away and “Buried” really disturbed me. My friends never did anything to the rabbits, but listening to the sounds of the scene over and over in my head was just something I can’t put into words.

This is no Peter Rabbit film. It feels like a horror film. Watership Down I'd say serves as the darkest film in animation I have and will ever know. Still, even all the fears won't stop me from loving the characters. Fiver I say is the most important character because he foresaw a terrible fate that was going to happen to their warren. Without him, his brother Hazel and a few others would have died. Of course the same can't be said for what happened to the rest of them back at the warren. Being buried was the scariest scene I have ever seen. Rabbits trapped underground in a clustered panic. It's a fate I wouldn't wish upon my worst enemy. Woundwort is a scary bunny. Honestly the film tells us we can underestimate rabbits. They can fight. They must fight to live and thrive. Bigwig is my favorite rabbit. He's not just strong, he don't take shit from Woundwort and fought as hard as he could against this monster.

There's a very disturbing scene from the movie I saw in the theater when I was 4 and it's not in this video... where we see rabbits in the burrow, and it's spiraling, and they're getting torn to shreds with blood everywhere, it was traumatizing as a kid and I Cannot find that deleted scene anywhere.

I've seen that scene years back on British television in the 80's. But I don't know if it's been cut out of the dvd release. The scene was in the VHS release though before dvd was even around.

I first watched this around age 7. I remember loving it and being terrified by all these scenes at the same time. Hearing the song Bright Eyes makes me cry. Watching the end of this cartoon makes me cry. I LOVE Hazel so much. Watching the Netflix series also makes me cry (at the end). I strongly recommend the book. It's so much better than the films. I also cried when I listened to the book on audio.

This film gave me such nightmares as child! Along with The Witches (especially the parts where the boys get turned into mice) and a film called Pinocchio and The Emperor of the Night which came out in 1987 and is meant to be a sequel to the first story. Only it was made by a different company than Disney and it has a horrific scene where Pinocchio is slowly turned back into a puppet by being forced to dance by a creepy puppet master. Pinocchio is even begging for it stop during the whole thing too, really messed me up when I was little 😰
