17. Hocus Pocus (1993)

FilmFloggers

(A Ben and Fiona episode - prepare for an Irish potty mouth and bullshit trivia)
A little bit late to the Halloween party, but what perfect way to get over the Alcohol/sweet induced hangover than to revisit a Halloween staple!
Beloved by many, Hocus Pocus is a quintessential Halloween experience and a shoo-in for most rewatched over the spooky period. For some (like myself), It stinks!
but before I go off on another frightful rant, Filmfloggers very own Fiona is on hand with her bullet points to convey her love for it, enjoy! (I'm off to throw up, again)
What is not to love?

It’s a classic Halloween film featuring three witches

- One who is a wolf and ‘Smells Child.’

- The others a ‘boy crazy tease’ who conjures the children

And finally

- A bucked tooth hag who makes the spells.

Together, they are better known as the Sanderson sisters, who love to suck the lives out of little children.

What’s more, we have:

- A talking cat who cannot die

- A virgin who lights the black flame candle

- A spoilt child who is a brat

- A teenage girl with great yaboos

- Two unbearable stoner bullies who steal shoes

And an unfaithful lover brought back from the grave- hey Billy.😊

What more could you want on all hallows eve?

An all-singing performance of ‘I put a spell on you’?- You’ve got it!

After all, it’s just a bunch of hocus pocus.!
