Hocus Pocus (1993)
“Its collection of one-liners and amusing situations could put you in a diverting spell.” — The Washington Post
Three gnarly, 17th-century Salem Witches (Bette Midler, Sarah Jessica Parker, Kathy Najimy) are unwittingly conjured up for a Halloween night in present-day Salem. While they tend to spruce up the party festivities with their outlandish costumery and Three Stooges-like antics, they’re not good witches. Their lifeblood is young children, and they’ve got one night to sate their hunger pangs or, come morn, turn to dust (The Hollywood Reporter). Starring Bette Midler, Sarah Jessica Parker, and Kathy Najimy as the iconic Sanderson Sisters. Directed by Kenny Ortega.
Run time: 1h 36m
