The Runner from Ravenshead

The Pilgrim's Progress meets The Little Rascals in this engaging story that features an all-child cast. After a daring escape from Ravenshead Prison, Sam must outrun the relentless wardens. Thankfully, the City of Refuge Guide Service is there to help her to freedom, but with every guide already busy, the accident-prone janitor, Henry, gets his long-awaited first assignment. Join Sam and Henry as they experience hair-breadth escapes, hilarious mishaps, and a climactic pursuit in this action-packed adventure that features a unique, all-children cast.

A delightful allegory about finding rest from the struggles of life, The Runner from Ravenshead combines adventure, humor, and life lessons to capture the hearts of the young and old alike. Described as "one of the most creative films in years" by the American Family Association, this DVD was also awarded The Dove Foundation's family-approved seal for all ages.

Dove Worldview:

This is a movie that will surprise you. It features a charming concept where children play all the parts in multiple roles. The group is on an adventure to save those who have gone astray and escaped from the prison. The agents help rescue the escapees from the wardens who follow them continuously until they are caught and returned to the prisons. The only safe place for them to go is the City of Refuge, where the wardens cannot follow.

Henry is a day-dreamer who dreams of the day when he will finally be an agent like the others. So he's delighted when he gets his chance to help Sam. He tries to encourage her to follow his directions and keep pushing on but she tries to resist his advice until she has not choice.

You will laugh at some of the slap-stick comedy that is presented. It is a charming movie that along the way teaches some valuable lessons like following directions, listening to others and teamwork. We award the Dove "Family-Approved" Seal for all ages.

Customer Reviews

This is a must-see for families!

I bought this movie for a gift and also one for my family. I had no idea what I created. My girls (10, 8, 6, and 4) absolutely love this movie and want to watch it over and over! They are playing "Runner from Ravenshead" around the house and quoting lines from the movie. It seems almost impossible these days to watch a movie that has approprate content. This is it! It is hilarious!
