At the moment, Disney still does not confirm a sequel to the film directed by Kenny Ortega, but thanks to the special event in Search of the Sanderson Sisters: A hocus pocus Hulaween Takeover -issued on October 30 -we have been able to see together againto the three protagonists.

If there is a decade that has given the cinema great horror comedies that is that of the 80s.During that period we saw for the first time the mythical Freddy Krugger, and titles such as the return of the living dead, an amazing gang or an American werewolf in London were launched in London.It was in 1985 when the American filmmaker Tom Holland (who shortly after he would sign Diabolic doll) debuted behind the cameras with, the now cult film, fear night.In it a young man named Charley Brewster (who gives life William Ragsdale) begins to have suspicions due to the attitudes of his new neighbor: a ‘nightlife playboy that seems to have delighted all other people in the neighborhood.His fears are enlarged when he discovers that he sleeps in a coffin and enjoy drinking the blood of the attractive women he takes home.Now he will have to take measures against this growing danger, since neither his own friends, nor his mother seem to believe him.Holland makes a promising debut with a film in which the times between terror and comedy measures perfectly and that, 35 years after its premiere, its viewing is still very satisfactory.Thanks to good interpretations, some special effects and large doses of fun, night of fear is one of those films to claim and that marked an entire generation.It is a pity that, many years later, the filmmaker Craig Gillespie (the million dollars).

If you want to laugh, go a little fear and return for an hour and a half to your childhood, in Netflix you have the curse of the witches (1990) by Nicolas Roeg, headed by actress Anjelica Huston.I don't remember exactly when I saw her, but I know it was quite small.And it turns out that Canguelo fell me so much in the bones that later, when I went out, I was looking at the eyes of the ladies around me, they would not have that purple brightness in their eyes.If I had emerged in any of them, in La Mería or in the supermarket, it should have been left by whistling without thinking twice.Less bad than in the end it did not happen.The viewing of the 90's version is now practically mandatory.Why?Because Warner Bros.A new adaptation has just released in cinemas, the witches (from Roald Dahl), with the Oscar -win.Based on the children's novel of the same name as the author of The Great Giant Belomón and James and the giant peach, the story follows a boy named Luke (Jasen Fisher) who is going to live with his grandmother Helga (Mai Zetterling) when his parentsThey die in a car accident.It is she who teaches her grandson how to distinguish a witch from a normal woman: they have claws instead of hands and that is why they wear very long gloves;They are bald and carry wigs that produce skin rashes;Nor do they have fingers on their feet and hide it with pointed shoes;In their pupils you can glimpse a purple note, and use their accentuated smell to track children, who hate and in their case they smell like excrement.When the old woman falls ill and the doctor recommends spending a summer near the sea, grandmother and grandson spend a vacation in a hotel on the coast of England.It gives the chance that there is also a group of witches, led by the Almighty Grand Witch (Huston).This wants to end all the children in the world and presents to their acolytes a magical potion of its creation that manages to transform them into mice.Although with small changes -the action, for example, takes place in the Alabama of the 60s -the witches (of Roald Dahl) by Robert Zemeckis is equally as funny.And Hathaway is wonderful as the villain of the story.Although the curse of the witches ... maybe it will always be more afraid because I saw her when she was still a reborn.

If there is director whose filmography is perfect for Halloween night, that's Tim Burton.The filmmaker, who began his career in the world of short film, was quickly signed by Disney to take care of television products such as Hansel and Gretel (1982) or Aladino and his wonderful lamp.After several disagreements with the study, due to criteria problems, the filmmaker signed for Warner Bros with the crazy Pee-Wee adventure.But it was not until 1988 when the director won the favor of the public and criticism with the wonderful Bitelchús.This film, starring some young Alec Baldwin and Geena Davis, tells the story of a marriage that is in full work of the house of their dreams.Their idyllic life will be upset when they die in a traffic accident, although they will not know that they have died until later, since they continue to live there but as ghosts.Some time later, a marriage of ‘snobs’ and her peculiar daughter (embodied by a rookie Winona Ryder) are installed in her home.As they detest their attitude and feel invaded, they will try to use arts from beyond to terrorize them and throw them.Feeling unable, they are forced to hire the services of a ‘bio exorcist’ (to which a unrecognizable Michael Keaton) that instead of solving the situation, will create even more problems, will create even more problems.A perfect mixture of terror and comedy, with visual effects and amazing makeup, of hilarious grotesque tone.A perfect film to enjoy during the dead.

First film of the Saga of Edgar Wright known as the Trilogy of Cornetto, Zombies Party is one of the best comedies of the living dead that exist.Starring the magnificent duo formed by Nick Frost and Simon Pegg, the film intended to be a tribute to the Zombis cinema of the George to.Romero, although from the combination of two other genres: comedy and terror.In it, Pegg plays Shaun, a London seller who lives with his two floormates and invests his free time to play the play and go to a pub.Tired of his lifestyle, his girlfriend leaves him and, before he can do anything to recover it, mysteriously the dead come alive and begin to attack the living without control.Determined to save the most important people of his life, Shaun and his inseparable friend Ed (Frost) gather a disparate group of survivors formed by their ex, their mother and some friends, while facing living dead almost inEvery corner.Although far from parodying Romero Zombies movies, Zombies Party makes a word game with the most famous tape of this in its original title, Shaun of the Dead, and houses numerous references both to El Dawn of the dead and other filmsof terror in the delusions and crazy situations that it raises.Of course, although if the zombies give you a substant...On the contrary, you can't stop laughing.
