"THE LAST MIMZY" -- Bob Shaye, founder and co-chairman of New Line Cinema, trades the executive's desk for the director's chair on this family fantasy based on Lewis Padgett's short story "Mimsy Were the Borogoves." The movie centers on a young brother and sister (Chris O'Neil and Rhiannon Leigh Wryn) who receive a strange box filled with what seems like toys, including a stuffed rabbit that turns out to be an emissary from the future on a mission to save humanity. The DVD is stacked with behind-the-scenes material on casting, production design, visual effects and the science explored in the movie.

There's also a profile on Shaye, who provides audio commentary, and the disc has 11 deleted scenes.
