Hocus Pocus
By: Jane Louise Boursaw
Bette Midler, Kathy Najimy, and Sarah Jessica Parker play the Sanderson sisters, three resurrected witches who wreak havoc on Salem, Massachusetts, 300 hundred years after they were hung. Ok, so they suck the life force out of a child to rejuvenate themselves — which sounds gruesome — but this movie is surprisingly funny, with a good mix of humor, acting, special effects, music, and a fun plotline. Ages 8 and up. Rated PG. 96 min. 1993. Released on DVD Aug. 5, 2003.
