The Witches

Not all movies of witches is of horror. Some are actually great for kids to watch as this 1990 film can claim. Now we must pay tribute to the legendary movie, The Witches.
The Witches, starring Anjelica Huston, tells the story of a young boy named Luke and his grandma who tells hims tales of witches. She tells him about their deep hatred towards children and how to spot them. During a vacation by the sea side, Luke finds the grand high witch holding a meeting with all of the witches of England. When he is discovered, they transform him into a mouse. Now him and his grandma must find a way to break the spell and stop the witches before they do the same to all the children of England.
I have this movie on my shelf and have watched it many times. It never gets old. With wonderful puppetry done by the talented crew of Jim Henson productions, this movie is plan awesome! The acting of Anjelica Huston is phenomenal. One of her best roles since The Addams Family.
I can't praise this movie enough. You should see it if you haven't. You will not be disappointed. Also guess what? This movie is actually based on a book. A book! Man, I got to read more...
