What Is The New Movie About?
In the new film, director Anne Fletcher offers viewers an origin story for the Salem sisters who feel misunderstood and “ahead of their time”. All hell will break loose when they are finally bequeathed the spell book that enables all the antics in the original film.
The bulk of the film, however, is set hundreds of years later when the Sanderson sisters rise from the dead. They face off against two young girls who attempt to stop the witches from becoming immortal before the sun rises. This is a modern take on the same narrative that runs through the first film.
Critic Peter DeBruge in his review of the film wrote, “’Hocus Pocus 2′ is actually the better made film, even if it amounts to little more than a stealth remake, with strategic decisions about the present-day and old-Salem witch trios being engineered to allow for more sequels, whether or not its star trio return.”
