What Parents Need to Know
About Return to Halloweentown
Parents need to know that this made-for-TV tween movie contains a few mildly scary scenes including some spooky red fog; a deep, bellowing warlock voice; and a growling creature-monster with glowing eyes. Some strange-looking characters appear throughout the movie, including a friendly skeleton taxi driver, a drooling troll, and some hooded demon-like creatures. On several occasions the main teen character breaks or bends rules, though she's generally well behaved. The primary bad characters are three young women who wear tight clothing and heavy makeup and treat others very badly, including teasing and tricking them.

Families Can Talk About
- Families can talk about school integration. Do you think it's a good idea to let non-witches into Witch University? Why or why not? How does this issue translate into the real world? Families can also discuss power and politics. Why did the Dominion want to take over Halloweentown? Why didn't Splendora Cromwell want to be queen? If you could have the power to control others, would you take it? Why or why not?

I lost six brain cells watching this!
Seriously, I did. I enjoyed the second and third Halloweentown movies to an extent, but the 4th one, "Return to Halloweentown", was even worse than the first. The storyline is completely predictable and cliche, filled with caricatures and plot holes. There is nothing remotely interesting to see here. The only entertaining part was when the mom shouted into the toilet bowl at her daughter while being watched anxiously by the people who had considered buying a house from her, which as you can see is rather juvenile. Younger kids may enjoy this movie, but everyone else should skip it. Nothing objectionable.
