The Blue Fairy shows up at the end and brings him back from the dead, and he is now a real boy, and everyone is happy. Queue the morbid trumpets to add to the horror. It’s finally over, and it looks like we will be getting a happy ending, but no, Pinocchio is found lying face down as dead as can be. They finally escape and are pursued by this nightmare of a whale in a horrifying chase scene. Then Pinocchio and his father are stuck in the belly of a whale starving to death and waiting to be digested. Then after their hangover, they are turned into donkeys, have their clothes ripped off of them, and then are shipped off to who knows where to work as donkeys! Forever! Pinocchio goes to Pleasure Island with a bunch of juvenile delinquents, where they smoke cigars, drink beer, and act like a bunch of jerks. Stromboli locks Pinocchio in a cage and tells him that eventually, when he has no more use for him, he is going to chop him up and use him for firewood! We also saw the bodies of ex-puppets chopped up and lying in a pile! The stuff that went on in the original “Pinocchio” was a nightmare to me.
