Halloweentown II: Kalabar's Revenge (NR, 2001)
common sense media says
Concoction of magical fun and fright for tweens.
parents & educators say
What parents need to know
Parents need to know that this Halloween movie contains some mildly scary scenes in which a young warlock surprises the main characters by popping up in unexpected places and talking in a threatening, taunting tone. In another scene, the very nice mom turns into an angry, scary-looking witch. The main character faces a time crunch as she scrambles to save friends and family from falling under the villain's spell, so this may cause a bit of edge-of-your-seat tension for some young viewers. Overall, this sequel isn't as scary as the first, mildly scary, Halloweentown film, and a bit of humor is added to the parts that are slightly scary or sad. For example, a curse causes the eccentric citizens of Halloweentown to turn into mundane mortals who enjoy sorting socks and wearing drab clothing.
Positive role models:
Marnie is initially fooled by the attractive young villain, but once
she finds out that he's no good, she sticks by her principles and
refuses to be swayed by his peer pressure. Marnie and her friend use
their smarts to come up with creative solutions to a very tricky problem
