Our month of spoopy goodness continues with the Disney Channel Original “favorite,” Halloweentown! It’s the show’s first DCO film, and wowsers it’s a doozy. Neither Josh nor Clancy caught this one in their youth, and their feelings are true to the Nonplussed name. They attempt to demystify the popularity of this magically inauspicious grab at the rising teen wizard wave of the late 90s. One thing can be said for certain: the late, great Debbie Reynolds knows how to commit.
Abracadabra!
