HOCUS POCUS [Blu-ray]
Description
Conjure up a cauldron of laughs with HOCUS POCUS, a fiendishly fun movie now
on Blu-ray for the first time, featuring an all-new digital restoration with
enhanced picture and sound. Academy Award(R) nominee Bette Midler (Best
Actress, 1991, FOR THE BOYS), Sarah Jessica Parker (SEX IN THE CITY) and Kathy
Najimy (THE WEDDING PLANNER) star in a wild and wacky comedy for the entire
family. When three 17th century Salem witches are accidentally summoned by
modern-day pranksters, the 300-year-old trio sets out to cast a spell on the
town and reclaim their youth, but first they must outwit three kids and a
talking cat. Get ready for a night of zany fun in this bewitching comedy
classic — now even better on Blu-ray!|Producer David Kirschner came up with
the idea for the movie one night while he and his young daughter were sitting
outside and his neighbor’s black cat strayed by. Kirschner began to unspool a
narrative of how the cat was once a boy who was changed into a feline 300
years ago by three witches.|Actress Kathy Najimy described her character Mary
as “Eddie Haskell as a witch,” referring to the character on the classic TV
series “Leave It To Beaver.” “She sucks up to Winifred [Bette Midler’s
character] every chance she gets. She wants to be part of the power club and
Winifred’s got the power.”|To create the costumes, designer Mary Vogt read
many historical books about Salem, Massachusetts. “I even read diaries of
women who were hanged as witches,” she says.
