Episode Synopsis

Tune in as Dustin Holden (The Rewatch Recap) jumps back onto the program for a discussion on The Worst Witch, the 1986 fantasy TV movie about the magical shenanigans that a good-hearted and accident-prone student undergoes at an esteemed witch academy. The blatant inspiration that the Harry Potter series must have drawn from this flick, the moments where this is somewhat a musical, and the absolutely campy fun of Tim Curry pop up as some of the subject matter for this episode.Directed by Robert W. Young, The Worst Witch stars Fairuza Balk, Diana Rigg, Charlotte Rae, Tim Curry, Danielle Batchelor, Anna Kipling, Sabina Franklyn, Kate Buckley, and Su Elliot.Spoilers start at 24:20“Anything Can Happen on Halloween” music videoCreate your podcast today! #madeonzencastrHere’s how you can learn more about Palestine and IsraelHere’s how you can keep up-to-date on this genocideHere’s how you can send eSIM cards to Palestinians in order to help them stay connected onlineGood Word:• Dustin: The Rocky Horror Picture Show – The 50th Anniversary Spectacular Tour• Arthur: The Summer Hikaru DiedReach out at [email protected] if you want to recommend things to watch and read, share anecdotes, or just say hello!Be sure to subscribe, rate, and review on iTunes or any of your preferred podcasting platforms!Follow Arthur on Twitter, Goodpods, StoryGraph, Letterboxd, and TikTok: @arthur_ant18Follow Arthur on Bluesky: @arthur-ant18Follow the podcast on Twitter: @two_centscriticFollow the podcast on Instagram: @twocentscriticpodFollow Arthur on GoodreadsCheck out 2 Cents Critic Linktree
