If you loved Return from Witch Mountain, try Escape to Witch Mountain

A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.

What they share

Both films are directed by John Hough, and they both carry the outsider, playful mood tags, and they sit in Adventure / Family / Fantasy / Science Fiction territory. If that's the register that drew you to Return from Witch Mountain, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Escape to Witch Mountain is

Two orphans with crackling supernatural talents attract the wrong kind of guardian. A reluctant single dad and a pair of pint-size psychics race toward a mountain that might be hiding answers. It’s comforting to think childhood trauma can be outrun, but the film quietly concedes it can’t.
