"The Sword in the Stone," "The Jungle Book 2" (Disney, $30 each)

Two Disney animated tales return to DVD today, led by a 45th-anniversary edition of "The Sword in the Stone," a musical about the early years of a boy named Wart, destined to become Britain's legendary King Arthur. The new edition comes with a couple of medieval-themed cartoon shorts featuring Mickey Mouse and Goofy and a profile of Richard M. and Robert B. Sherman, who wrote songs and music for many Disney adventures. "The Jungle Book 2," Disney's followup to its classic Rudyard Kipling adaptation, features Haley Joel Osment providing the voice of Mowgli, the boy raised in the wild. The DVD comes with deleted scenes, a featurette and music videos.

CLASSIC FILM

"Icons of Adventure" (Sony, $25)

This two-disc set collects four of the movies that England's Hammer Studios made in the late '50s and early '60s in a largely unsuccessful effort to branch out from horror films. The titles -- "Pirates of Blood River," "The Devil-Ship Pirates," "The Stranglers of Bombay" and "The Terror of the Tongs" -- mark them as lurid second features of the type that drive-in patrons adored. All of the films are in color, except "Stranglers of Bombay," which examines the Thugee cult in India and is by far the most interesting of the movies. The set has commentary tracks, chapter 1 of a terrible 1953 serial, "The Great Adventures of Captain Kidd" and an equally dreadful cartoon.
