... View MoreThis film (on VHS) was a staple of my childhood every Halloween along with Goosebumps episodes. While it certainly has nostalgic merit, anybody over the age of five probably won't get much out of these two obnoxious little twits and their cringey one-liners. The adult cast members of this film is where all the real talent lies, and Cloris Leachman is perfect in her greed vs. elegance double roles. Wayne Robson as the unnamed "Gravedigger" is quite eerie and creepy, but in a friendly way appropriate for kids. Many older Canadian horror fans will recognize him from numerous works unique to the country. Meshach Taylor was also really delightful as "Mr. N".Had the film toned down the cheese and pulled the spotlight away from the Trollsen - oops, I mean Olsen Twins - I think this would have all the meanings of a tried and true classic. It has a good soundtrack, good morals for viewers of all ages, and it's silly and a lot of fun to watch all things considered. But it's hard to enjoy a film when its two protagonists are intolerable at best and snotty smart alecks to everyone they meet.
... View MoreAs a child, I loved this movie, Olsen twins, and HALLOWEEN. Now that I'm older, I still do! The twins star as Lynn and Kelly. Their parents are about to lose their house. They ask Aunt Agatha for a loan, but because she's an evil witch, she doesn't. During that time, the twins meet a grave digger who tells them about the Moonstone, which gives Agatha her power. Agatha had a nice, sweet twin sister named Sophia, who is trapped in a mirror in the attic. On HALLOWEEN the next day, The twins try to find the witches' gathering, get the Moonstone, and save their sweet aunt by midnight with the help of Mr. N, Oscar the Clown, and the grave digger. If you love the Olsen twins, witches, and HALLOWEEN, you'll love DOUBLE, DOUBLE, TOIL AND TROUBLE!!!
... View MoreThis is a GREAT movie. Anyone who has a bad word to say about it is a total moron. That's all there is to it. Watch it, it's good. The entire cast makes this movie wonderful. Cloris Leachman is very convincing as both Aunt Agatha and Sofia. It's hard to believe this movie is already 10 years old!
... View MoreThe Olsen twins are at it again - this time though, they're quite a bit younger (made when Full House was still being aired) - about six - yet still manage to put in okay performances despite their young age.Here the play sisters (*twin* sisters, even!) who run away from their parents whilst trick-or-treating to help their Aunt Sophia, who is trapped inside a mirror thanks to Sophia's twin sister (who happens to be a witch).Along the way they meet up with Mr. N(Meshach Taylor) and Oscar(Phil Fondacaro) who come along for the ride in hopes of setting their Aunt Sophia free. Kids seem to like it, Mary-Kate and Ashley would've been complaining and amusing one-liners throughout to keep adults from falling asleep.
