Halloweentown or Hollow-Town?

Halloweentown or Hollow-Town?

Published 1 year, 4 months ago
Description

Join us on Last Night We Watched as we hop aboard the magical bus to Halloweentown—and promptly crash it into the pumpkin. We're diving into Disney Channel’s beloved-but-bonkers classics, Halloweentown and its cringe-worthy sequel, Halloweentown II: Kalabar's Revenge.

First, we’ll celebrate the campy charm of the OG, complete with Debbie Reynolds carrying the entire film on her witchy shoulders and a plot that somehow works despite its 90s TV-movie budget. Then, we’ll roast the sequel, where the acting takes a nosedive, the dialogue feels like it was written on the back of a napkin, and the villain’s plan is about as menacing as a wet noodle.

From Marnie’s questionable spellcasting skills to a love interest with all the charisma of a stale candy corn, we’re not holding back on the absurdity. Plus, we unpack how Halloweentown II managed to make the phrase “party city vibes” a cinematic aesthetic.

Is it nostalgia or nonsense? A treat or a trick? Tune in for some cackles, some critiques, and more bad acting impressions than you can shake a broomstick at!
