My wife and I watched Hocus Pocus(1993) tonight. It's a fairly family friendly Halloween movie
When I met my wife in 1994 her tradition was High spirits(1988) with Peter O'Toole and a great supporting cast too. However, Also, in 1993 came out Hocus Pocus which is also a classic movie too so we added this movie to watch for halloween. also, they made a 2018 25th Anniversary thing too I noticed was there tonight and then there is a Hocus Pocus(2022) as well with at least the 3 principals of the Sanderson Sisters I think that are in there from the original cast.
The Resurrection: Three 17th-century Salem witches, the Sanderson sisters, are accidentally brought back to life 300 years after their execution.
The Mission: The sisters have only one Halloween night to secure their continued existence by casting a spell on the town and absorbing the youth of local children.
