Kathryn joins Melvin to summarize Halloweentown II: Kalabar's Revenge! The two discuss if there's actual lore in the film, if it carries over a similar level of charm as the first film, and like all DCOMs... does it hold up? Tune in now!

Topics:

• Editor's Note: No Patreon Exclusive discussion! But, I do intend to trim this episode down from its original 1:16:40 length, so if you want to hear the UNCUT version, tune in on Patreon here!
• The Halloweentown movies are basically Gilmore Girls but without the drama or sadness, and also set during Halloween.
• Gort.
• Cal outs himself as a chud by negging Marnie when they first meet.
• The special effects, whether digital or practical suits, feel lesser in quality than the first film.
• Both Marnie and Cal have similar motivations: their family's legacies.
• Who is Kyle?
• Sorting socks is suffering.
• But what if the movie had impact?
