Top Comments of this video!! :3
Winifred felt so out of character in the sequel. What made her so compelling in the first film was that she was unabashedly evil. She didn't care for her sisters. She only cared for how she can use her sisters in order to obtain the children's youth (by using Mary's hightened sense of smell & Sarah's singing voice). In the sequel, she all of a sudden makes the realization that her sisters were the most important thing to her, but in reality she couldn't care less what happens to them if it means achieving her own ambition. For example, in the first film, Max drinks the life potion and thus, sacrifices himself for his sister. Winifred takes him and tells him, "what a fool to give thy life for thy sister." Winifred can't comprehend why someone would be willing to sacrifice themselves for their sister. She would never make such a decision.

I think the joke with Winnifred calling Billy her lover (but he is actually Sarah's lover) is that when Winnifred and Billy were teenagers, they kissed once, and later when the Sanderson Sisters and Billy were adults (and Sisters were already feared witches), Sarah and Billy had a serious romantic relationship, which was likely secret given the fact that the Sisters were exiled witches. Winnifred was still in love with Billy (presumably, that kiss being the closest she ever came to romance in her life), and she still had him "claimed" in her mind. She found out about Sarah and Billy, and killed him out of jealousy.
So it is even pettier than she was mad that her sister was with a guy she kissed a few months ago. She was mad that her sister was with a guy she kissed 10+ years ago. Seems very in-character, to me.

Ok, so I know the store owner Gilbert claims he saw the sisters in the graveyard, but how tf would he? All the children in Salem were under the spell at the time, going toward the graveyard in a trance as the witches fought their fate. All while the parents of the kids were ALSO under a spell so they could party all night til they died.
The Sisters hadn't lost til sunrise...Gilbert would have never been able to be walking around freely like this unless he had earplugs while trick or treating. Sarah said it was literally her ONE job, and yet she was unable to capture this random boy? This whole movie wouldnt have happened. It's just a wierd insert that took me out of it due to continuity ig.

I hated the whole "bullying" thing because if anything the girls were the bullies trying terrorize the Guy by mocking Him and pretending to cast spells when they KNOW it disturbs him. And the guy seems really slow, and it felt like they were making of Him because He's slow and doesn't like witch Craft, they didn't even give the guy a chance they were like "No Cassie you can't have other friends."

Bette Middler, Sarah Jessica Parker and Kathy Najimi saved this movie from being a total bomb (also the three girls they got to play Young Winifred, Sarah and Mary, their acting was spot on). But a good 65% of it was dedicated to the main character (whose name I honestly forgot), her sidekick and their teen drama with the other girl (I only remember her as Mayorâs Daughter). So much of this movie was dedicated to âFriendship is the Real Magicâ I thought Iâd stumbled across a human-version of FiM!
Ultimately if youâre stuck for something to do watch it for Bette Middler, Sarah Jessica Parker and Kathy Najimi, just be sure to bring headphones to drown out the repetitive teen drama crap.
Thanks for a fun review Alex and go hug your animal friends all đđąđ

If I had to write the movie, i would make it like this:
Becca and Izzy are very worried about their friend Cassie. For months now she has been acting off to the point of becoming unrecognizable: She just looked so gone, like if her mind was constantly out of her body. Recently, out of the blue, Cassie broke up with her two year boyfriend Mike and simply stopped talking them becoming more and more reclusive. They were genuinely surprised though, when Mike told them that Cassie will be going to his annual Halloween party, so maybe this will be the perfect chance to talk to her and see what is going on.
The party was going to be extra creepy this year, being celebrated in the middle of the forest. They both can't wait.
While Becca and Izzy were going costume-shopping for the big party, they decided to go and look around the Sanderson Sisters's house, now transformed into a museum and gift shop. When snooping around to see if there was anything they could add to their costumes, they encounter Gilbert, the excentric owner of the shop, who in conversation, tells them how Cassie has been going to the shop several times a week. Gilbert simply doesn't give them the chance to tell them that they haven't talked to Cassie in weeks, even when he shoves them a package saying to please give it Cassie, that is her "special order"
The order is nothing more than a weird ass candle that is so badly done that they don't understand why Cassie ordered something like that. They were late for the party anyway, so they arrived with candle on toe. The party goes on and Cassie simply doesn't appear, until she does. Appearing in front of Becca demanding her the candle, that it was important.
The minute Becca gives it to her, Cassie tries to leave, but neither Becca or Izzy are having it. They follow her until they reached the deep of the woods, the echoes of the party sounds so distant now but at least Cassie isn't running anymore.
Then She is the one that confronts them, saying how this woods used to be a sacred place, a place of mourning were hundreds of women were unjustly killed for being themselves, for being more powerful than permitted. Becca and Izzie are just confused , they knew that Cassie was good at history, but they never though her was this obsessed about it. Cassie continued by saying that the town continued to profit from their suffering, with stupid parties or the "celebrations" and contests.
She said all this while lighting up the candle, whose flame turns black.
The earth moves
They are back
(to be continued....?)

Hereâs my breakdown
Pros:
- The young girls who played the Sanderson Sisters did a great job, I liked the whole beginning with them. I probably would have liked a prequel more.
- Itâs just great to see the Sanderson Sisters and Billy Butcherson back
- I enjoyed Tony Hale as the mayor, he just has a great comedic presence
- The Walgreens scene was pretty damn funny
Cons:
- The new characters were so boring! I didnât see any kind of good backstory or develop any bond with them. In the original, we see Max is a fish out of water moving to a new town, trying to act cocky and it backfiring with him giving his number to Allison, getting his shoes stolen by the bullies, learning to be a better big brother, and then sacrificing himself for his sisterâŚand getting his shoes back. That is GROWTH. I didnât feel any of that from the new cast. We know three girls used to be friends, but one they pretty much ghost because she got a boyfriendâŚsuper deep.
- I didnât like that the Sanderson Sisters werenât really evil at all anymore. The original movie, they literally killed a girl in the first ten minutes, talked about killing/eating children, were ecstatic to hang out with the guy they thought was Satan (they literally call him Master), Sarah screams when that little angel says âbless youâ, they put a curse on the parents to make them dance until they literally die (not just dance to find a guy like in the sequel), Billy says âgo to Hellâ and Winifred says âIâve been there and I found it quite lovelyâ, and the end where thereâs some sympathy for losing her sisters (in the first movie Winifred tell Max heâs a fool for giving up his life for his sisters). They were fun but actually evil and wouldnât stop at anything to kill those children of Salem.
- Why were the sisters surprised at the salt?? That was already established in the first movie.
- I honestly felt like there was no urgency or risk in this movie. The first one, the witches kept repeating how they only had until sunrise, and the kids were trying different ways to kill them or stall for time. This one they just put a circle of salt around them and peaced out. The first movie they kill Emily so we saw that they meant business. This movie just felt like funny bits and nothing on the line.

Ok but I hate that âFriendship is the answer to all problemsâ because they do it in sooo many movies and shows. In the first Hocus Pocus they outsmarted the witches and personally thatâs more entertaining
