RATING
Out of 100 |
|
Something Wicked is a spellbinding fantasy--at times scary, at times magical. Jason Robards is absolutely fantastic as the town librarian. Jonathan Pryce is also well-cast as the malevolent Mr. Dark. The perfect Halloween movie, especially for the family. The library sequence is a masterpiece of filmmaking.
