Hocus Pocus

Supernatural shenanigans starring Bette Midler, Sarah Jessica Parker and Sister Act's Kathy Najimy as a trio of 17th-century witches who return to raise hell in modern-day Massachusetts. As their unwitting emancipators, it's up to teenager Max (Omri Katz), his sister Dani (Thora Birch) and a talking black cat to undo the curse and return the spell-slinging Sanderson girls to the netherworld. Former choreographer Kenny Ortega directs with the sort of tempo that made him a perfect fit for the High School Musicals.
