Binding: VHS Tape EAN: 9786302968149 Format: Closed-captioned, Color, Dolby, NTSC ISBN: 6302968143 Label: Walt Disney Video Languages: Manufacturer: Walt Disney Video Number Of Items: 1 Publisher: Walt Disney Video Release Date: September 09, 1994 Running Time: 96 minutes Studio: Walt Disney Video Theatrical Release Date: July 16, 1993 Editorial Review: Amazon.com: This big, fat theatrical bomb has a lot going for it. There's the three leads, Bette Midler, Kathy Najimy, and Sarah Jessica Parker, playing three resurrected witches who wreak havoc on Salem, Massachusetts, 300 hundred years after they were hung. There's music, special effects, and magic. There's a surprisingly horror-filled plot. Whoops, hold up on that last one. It's probably the extremes that this film goes to (displaying a Disney label), such as the witches sucking the life out of a little girl in the first five minutes, that put the brakes on any success for Hocus Pocus. Older children, however, in the 8 and up range should get a kick out of all the weird goings-on. It's a good measure of Halloween thrills and chills. --Keith Simanton Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Favorite MovieI love this movie and I watch it often. I bought the video when it came out in the 90's and now I have trouble watching it on our new HD TV, so now I purchased it in the DVD form. The actors were great in this movie. I can't get enough of the movie. Rating:  - Great movie but not a true "WIDESCREEN" format as stated.This is a great movie but it is not in 1:85 widescreen format. It is in a 4:3 aspect. I called Disney and they tried to explain that it is their only release of the movie. They admitted it wasn't in a true 1:85 widescreen and will not fill a 16x9 hi-def T.V. (looks great on a 4:3 T.V.) After playing mind checkers with the Disney operator for a few minutes, they could'nt give a reason why it is advertised as a widescree movie. Rating: - Great Halloween Fun For The Whole Family!For my family no holiday is complete without a long list of holiday movies to watch and enjoy. This movie is absolutely on our list, and it has long been a favorite. Bette Midler, Sarah Jessica Parker and Kathy Najimy deliver hilarious performances as the wicked and witchy Sanderson sisters; back after a long awaited rest they are ready to wreak havoc on the town of Salem and regain their youth. Funny, sweet and good for the entire family, it's one of Disney's best. (Despite some critcism from ... Read More Rating: - Outstanding Halloween Comedy, Horror, and SuspenseAlong with "Clue," this is what I consider one of the greatest Halloween movies ever made. It starts with the death of 3 witches (Winifred, Sarah, and Mary). Also, Zachary gets turned into a black cat by them after he unsuccessfully tries to save his sister Emily. We then move to a present day classroom in Salem where a class has heard about what happened. Did what we see really happen, or was it just an acted out story the teacher was telling? GREAT AMBIGUITY! Max doesn't believe the story, which makes ... Read More Rating: - Hocus PocusHocus Pocus: This is a great movie at halloween. The cast really looks the part. It is alot of fun to watch. |
