My wife is the target audience, and her reaction to it was, "well, that was shit." I took the opportunity for a nap, but main character was black, friend was hispanic, estranged friend who had apparently abandoned them was white. Ancillary male friend was white and a dimwit. Within the first ten minutes main character said some blither blather about the patriarchy. Sanderson sisters driven to witchcraft by mean christians- I guess the whole story of hocus pocus isn't going to sit well with progressives because it's Salem killing witches who actually are witches and do in fact want to eat children.
I loved the original movie. Never going to bother with the pathetic woke "diversified" sequel.
Aside : I always roll my eyes at the "we wuz persecuted witches in Salem" wiccan "mythology".
There was no "witch" in Salem. Only a bored, attention-seeking young woman falsely-accusing others, starting a mass hysteria, targetting a 100% Christian population.
