Little Red Riding Hood, so called because of the beautiful red velvet riding hood given to her by her grandmother, is sent to bring some food to her sick grandmother. Little Red Riding Hood is given strict instructions by her mother to go directly to her grandmother's house, but instead the little girl is convinced by an evil wolf to stray from the path and gather some flowers for the grandmother. The wolf's intentions are far from honorable, and he plots to eat them both. Luckily, a nearby hunter saves the day!
