A family film that still has a feel good feel to it...

A trainee witch is looking after a group of children in wartime Britain when her final lesson in witchcraft doesn't arrive... What follows is a search for the final spell on a magical bed... Trying to stop a German invasion and a fair bit of singing and dancing...

Angela Lansbury stars, in a role far removed from the character that she would later become famous for and puts in a great performance as the novice witch...

A live action and cartoon film that works really well when the two bend together, and is just the sort of film to bring a smile when things are getting you down...

Sleeping with the lights on at 30

Watched this again for the first time in years yesterday. Didn't seem half as scary when watching it with other people so didn't have to sleep with the light on this time (true story).
Sarah Michelle Gellar plays it well and some of the jumps and scares are brilliantly done. Raimi was going through a little horror spell with this and Drag me to Hell which also was pretty good, but did have a slightly more comedic tone than The Grudge.
Good supporting cast and well worth a watch, as its o e of the few American/Japanese updates that hasn't ruined the original story
