All of them help her as she tries to find the other unicorns. As she comes close to her goal, a red bull appears and tries to take her prisoner.

"The Last Unicorn" is about a unicorn who realizes that she is the last and sets out on a journey to find out where all the other unicorns have gone. She meets up with a bungling magician, Schmendrick, and they continue the journey together to the castle of King Hagrid where they encounter The Red Bull, a mystical creature that gathers unicorns for Hagrid. In order to escape the Bull, Schmendrick transforms the unicorn into a human woman. This transformation leads to the unicorn being able to experience regret, something other unicorns are unable to feel.

This story is all about a unicorn (the last!) going in search of the others of her kind: after hearing that they were imprisoned somewhere by 'the red bull'. Whilst on her quest she meets a magician and female criminal type. She also meets a human prince who loves her but...can they be together?

This is a beautiful cartoon about the last unicorn searching for the rest of her species. Along the way she meets a would-be magician and a hardened criminal women with a soft heart. If you love unicorns, you have to see this movie. The music is great too, performed by "America."
