Trivia

The interior scenes were filmed at a Catholic private school: Juan Diego High School, in Salt Lake City, Utah. Notice all the posters on the walls, and careful camera angles - as many religious-based statues and framed pictures had to be covered up.

Goofs

Throughout the movie, the Cromwell's use a spell to null the effects of others' spells. While originally, the incantation is, "Magicus Fixus", it changes during the confrontation with Ethan's dad to, "Magico Faxum".

And the Oscar Goes to...

Halloweentown High, just premiering last week on the Disney Channel was a lighthearted family feature. Watching it, anyone would realize that this film was not out to grab a best picture nomination at the Oscars. However, for what it's supposed to be, Halloweentown High proves to be a film that children will enjoy to watch. With a wide fan base of children of all ages from the first two films, you can see why the Disney Channel is playing the movie several times all month.

While I read over a few of the comments made on the movie, I was perplexed at how some young girls went completely crazy over it, while others took out enough time to write a full essay on how horrible it was. As a movie for children, it's supposed to be cheesy; so expect that and you will find yourself pleasantly surprised.
