    • Trivia
      On the podcast Inside of You with Michael Rosenbaum (2018), Doug Jones said that the wig he wears as Billy Butcherson in this movie is the same one he wore in the first movie.
    • Goofs
      Gilbert states that as a child, he witnessed the climatic finale of the first movie, but in said film, all the children of Salem were under Sarah's trance at this point, marching towards the Sanderson cottage. Gilbert is clearly capable of performing magic and therefore, it's possible, he may be immune, like the Sanderson Sisters.
    • Quotes

      Winifred Sanderson: [from trailer] Lock up your children! Yes, Salem, we're back!

    • Crazy credits
      SPOILER: There is a scene after the closing credits: Cobweb the black cat jumps onto a shelf next to a box containing a second Black Flame candle.

    Falls flat.

    I was really excited to see this and shouldn't be shocked it's not good but alas, here we are. It's so hard to get through.

    Two unlikeable teen narcs bring back the witches who immediately burst into... song and dance?! Whoever made this remake failed to realize they only sang in the first film because they are mistaken for a musical act and use the stage/ band accompaniment to cast a spell on the town. "Dance until you die!" It's dark!

    In this, they are singing and dancing happy music in the middle of the woods. We hear a full band but they are alone. For no reason. This is not in their character. Make it make sense.

    The product placement is palpable. Sponsored by Walgreens. We're supposed to believe they don't know what teenagers look like? They already came back in the 90s and knew Max was a teenager.

    Also- Billy was my favorite character in the original and in this, they give him a weird Irish accent? When no one else has one? What's happening. Why ruin a classic?
