HOCUS POCUS

KENNY ORTEGA | USA | 1993 | 96 MIN

All Throwback Thursday Quizzo & Movie Events are 21+ Only

This screening will feature live music 30 minutes prior to start time.

Children of the 90s know that it’s not Halloween without this spooky, kooky classic about three witch sisters (Bette Midler, Kathy Najimy, and Sarah Jessica Parker) who return to the town of Salem after 300 years looking to wreak havoc and perform a choreographed song-and-dance number to “I Put a Spell on You.” Hocus Pocus follows teenager Max, who inadvertently resurrects the Sanderson sisters and must face zombies and annoying kid sisters on his quest to put a stop to the witches’ plan to suck out the souls of Salem’s children before Halloween night is up.

Cast: Bette Midler, Sarah Jessica Parker, Kathy Najimy, Thora Birch

“A perennial Halloween favorite.” –Mashable


The Philadelphia Film Society presents Throwback Thursday Quizzo & Movie! 

Do you like trivia, nostalgia films, and drink? Then get your friends together to form an awesome Quizzo team (witty squad name required) and put your film and pop culture knowledge to the test at PFS’ monthly Quizzo & Movie!

Every First Thursday of the month, come out to the Philadelphia Film Center for a screening of a crowd-pleasing modern classic preceded by a few rounds Quizzo where all questions are about or inspired by that night’s movie. During the film, we will tally up the scores and reveal the winning team as the credits roll. The first-place team and runners-up will win prizes and bragging rights!
