Lord of the Rings (1978), Ralph Bakshi’s animated adaptation, portrays the Battle of Helm’s Deep very differently from the 2002 The Two Towers film. The Elves do not come to aid the people of Rohan, making this version more faithful to the book in that regard. The animated film also ends its story with the Battle of Helm’s Deep. This sequence is considered the most iconic and technically complex part of the movie, filmed in Spain and the United States using live actors through the rotoscope tech
