Movie Description
A spin on the infamous 17th-Century Salem Witch Trials is
the focus of the 1993 Walt Disney Pictures fantasy-comedy Hocus Pocus.
Salem, Mass. 1693: Three sisters (deemed witches by
townspeople) are publicly hanged after allegedly killing another girl and
transforming the slain girl's brother into a talking cat. Dissolve to Salem,
Mass. 1993, October 31st (Halloween) to be precise.
New high school student Max isn't adjusting well to his new
school or classmates. Apparently Max is an object of ridicule because he scoffs
at the legend of the three witches, which is held to be a "sacred
truth" in Salem. Reluctantly, Max agrees to accompany his younger sister
on her "trick-or-treat"-ing rounds, where they become involved in
strange goings-on at the house where the three 17th-Century "witch"
sisters lived.
Hocus Pocus has developed somewhat of a cult following over
the years. The cast is solid, led by Bette Midler, Sarah Jessica Parker, Kathy
Najimy, Omri Katz and Thora Birch. Legendary TV producer/director Garry
Marshall has a cameo as the Devil.
