The Witches (1966)

The Witches
This is a good movie but toward the end it skip or something I thought it was my dvd player so I tryed another dvd player and the same thing happen. But that wont stop me from ordering again.

Great Halloween movie!
When October rolls around and the excitement of Halloween is in the air, my mind immediately goes to my younger years, spending hours watching scary movies in anticipation of the holiday. One of the many movies that comes to my mind is The Witches.

So what's this movie about? Basically, a boy named Luke and his grandma move to England after a tragic accident. Once they arrive at the hotel that they are staying at, Luke finds out that a rather large group of witches is staying at the hotel and they're plotting to turn every child on earth into mice.

Let's talk about what I like about this movie. First, the characters are all interesting in their own way. The main characters are easy to like (which is important in "scary" movies), the witches are gross, we even get an appearance by "Mr. Bean"! Second, the storyline is rather interesting. It keeps you wondering what is going to happen next and, when the main characters are in trouble, it keeps you on the edge of your seat in anticipation. Also, it moves at a steady pace. Lastly, apparently some people don't like the ending but I personally liked it because it wasn't something that I expected.

And now for the negatives. This movie is rated PG. Parents, before letting your kids watch this, be sure to watch it yourself. Even older kids may find some scenes a little too "scary". Other than that, there really isn't anything wrong with this movie.

If you're looking for a good movie to get you into the Halloween spirit, The Witches is definitely it.
