Halloweentown / Halloweentown II: Kalabar's Revenge (Double Feature)
Description
Join Marnie (Kimberly J. Brown) and her grandmother Aggie
(Debbie Reynolds) as they stir up a cauldron full of comedy and adventure in
two Disney Channel classics — HALLOWEENTOWN and HALLOWEENTOWN II: KALABAR’S
REVENGE. On her 13th birthday, Marnie learns she’s a witch, discovers a secret
portal and is transported to HALLOWEENTOWN — a magical place where ghosts and
ghouls, witches and werewolves live apart from the human world. but she soon
finds herself battling wicked warlocks, evil curses and endless surprises.
HALLOWEENTOWN Double Feature will charm pixies, trolls and families everywhere
every day of the year. In a place called Halloweentown, good and
evil look very different than one might expect. Thanks to a visit from
Grandmother Aggie (Debbie Reynolds), Marnie (Kimberly J. Brown) and her
family’s tradition of ignoring the Halloween holiday are about to change in
the extreme. It seems that Marnie’s mother Gwen (Judith Hoag) has been hiding
a big secret from her three children–all of them possess supernatural powers.
Now that it’s Marnie’s thirteenth birthday, she must begin her training as a
witch or lose her powers forever. While Gwen wants nothing more than to see
her children grow up as “normal” humans, Grandmother Aggie and Marnie have
other ideas. A brewing crisis between good and evil in the alternate world
Halloweentown soon pulls the entire family through a portal and into an
intense battle against ghouls, goblins and the warlock Kalabar (Robin Thomas).
Halloweentown II takes place two years after Halloweentown and finds Kalabar’s
son bent on revenge. Marnie has matured as a witch, but her powers are pushed
to the limit in a desperate effort to triumph over an evil curse in order to
save Halloweentown, her family and the human world. This is good Disney
Halloween fun with nice costuming and special effects, a wholesome message
about the power of family, cooperation and perseverance, and ghouls that,
though creepy looking, aren’t likely to inspire nightmares in younger family
members. (Ages 5 and older) –Tami Horiuchi
