Screening of the 1993 fantasy comedy 'Hocus Pocus', directed by Kenny Ortega and starring Bette Midler, at ODEON Stoke.
Hocus Pocus is showing at ODEON Stoke on Sunday 1 November, with the screening starting at 10:50. It's a morning slot, so it's one of those things you can get through before lunch and still have the rest of your Sunday ahead of you.
For anyone who hasn't seen it, Hocus Pocus is the 1993 Disney film directed by Kenny Ortega, with a script by David Kirschner and Mick Garris. The story follows three 17th-century witches who are brought back to life in modern-day Salem and set about hunting for young blood to keep themselves immortal. It's a family-friendly bit of Halloween magic, and since it's a re-run, it's as much about the nostalgia as the story itself.
The sisters are played by Bette Midler, Sarah Jessica Parker, and Kathy Najimy, who bring a lot of the film's energy to the screen. They're joined by Omri Katz and Thora Birch, and the whole thing runs for 1 hour and 37 minutes, so it's a relatively brisk watch. It holds a 69% rating on IMDb, which gives you a rough idea of where it sits.
