Super7 - The Curse of the Three Terror - movie poster

The Curse of the Three Terrors is a short film/episode of He-Man and the Masters of the Universe created by Super7 to launch their 5.5 Retro Collection toy line. As Super7 had the MOTU license at the time, this 10 minute episode is more or less official.

The episode reuses the Filmation opening to the classic cartoon series, and managed to hire one of the original voice actors.
