Most Ludicrous Premise
Anyone Got a Spare Unicorn Horn? The Gryphon and its evil master become immortal after an eclipse and can only be killed by a pike made of unicorn horn, the two parts of which must be found and reunited. Sounds like a quest to me!

Worst Special Effect
The Hippogriff Did It Better Remember the hippogrif in the Harry Potter movies? Remember how cool that was? This... isn't.
