      In the book, it never mentioned what the head witch's accent was, other than it sounding ridiculous and foreign to someone in England. The beauty of that little detail is that it doesn't have to sound like it's from any particular country. Despite this, she did a good job imitating how the book wrote her dialogue.

      But this version is much more faithful to the original story, and the special effects are much much better at telling the story. The new one seems to pander and stray, it relies to heavily on a list actors and gaudy cgi to make up for its shoddy visuals and writing.

    This movie definitely holds a place in my childhood. In 3rd grade, my teacher would always do storytelling by reading us books. She'd change her voice and add to the atmosphere from just reading a simple page. This book was one of the ones she read us and I loved every minute of it. Always had me wondering what was coming next.
    We got to watch this movie after finishing the book reading. If she read us a book and it had a movie, we got to watch it. I remember my friend Lizzie hiding behind me when the mask was taken off. I honestly was not expecting it to be this scary. I didn't get scared but boy, when you're a kid and you see this, it does give you the heebie jeebies.
    Nonetheless, I loved the book and the movie and I never get tired of them. Plus Anjelica Huston was the real Grand High Witch. Beautiful as ever on the outside but this time, she was both beautiful and evil at the same time. Can't ask for a better actress to play this role.

    “Who spoke?”
    The moment the witches knew someone was about to die. The Grand High Witch does this at least once at every meeting primarily to instill fear into the other witches to insure that they follow her orders. Normally it’s an incompetent witch but she also will sometimes target a random one.
    Trivia: in this scene with the witches, if you watch closely, you may notice many of the witches are actually bald men dressed in drag.

      The new film isn't a remake you utter dummy. It's an adaptation of the book. Please don't tell me you've never read the book before? I know kids these days never read anymore, but you really should read Roald Dahl's entire bibliography. Do you even know what a "book" is?
      The new one is far more accurate to the book. But kids who don't read and think that only movies exist don't understand things like that. They think Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory was an original story, when it was based on the book Charlie and the Chocolate Factory
      It seems to be mostly Americans who don't know who Roald Dahl is and that all his books are fantastic, and that he might be the author who's had most film adaptations of his books, even in a world where Stephen King exists. Roald Dahl is also the character James Bond is based on, because of his pre-writing career. He was a British spy would go over to the US and sleep with the wives of US senators in an attempt to blackmail the US into joining world war II. Although then Pearl harbor happened, so all of that wasn't needed in the end.

      For years I always thought a different actress played the part of The Grand High Witch when her true form is revealed. Anjelica was a real trooper to endure all those hours in the make up chair during her 3 week stint of filming. This movie is screaming for a Special Edition, I would love to find out more about this classic. I remember seeing this in my School class and the teacher had to stop the VHS only around the 10 min mark when you see the close up of the eyes of Erica's Witch kidnapper as it scared a lot of the class but I wanted to see the rest of the film. As I had gotten older, I read the book but then finally saw the film from start to finish. Such a great creepy movie and wished the original ending from the book was used as I thought it was great yet incredibly sad for a young audience to accept at the time. Always takes me back to my younger years when it was a much happier time and before the internet, times I sometimes miss very much.

      The new film is not a remake. It's an adaptation of the book. Please don't tell me you've never read the book before? I know kids these days never read anymore, but you really should read Roald Dahl's entire bibliography. Do you even know what a "book" is?
      The new one is far more accurate to the book. But kids who don't read and think that only movies exist don't understand things like that. They think Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory was an original story, when it was based on the book Charlie and the Chocolate Factory
      It seems to be mostly Americans who don't know who Roald Dahl is and that all his books are fantastic, and that he might be the author who's had most film adaptations of his books, even in a world where Stephen King exists. Roald Dahl is also the character James Bond is based on, because of his pre-writing career. He was a British spy would go over to the US and sleep with the wives of US senators in an attempt to blackmail the US into joining world war II. Although then Pearl harbor happened, so all of that wasn't needed in the end.

    I have never seen this movie (didn't even know it existed until like, 10 minutes ago) but I did read the book when I was in elementary school. And it's kind of freaky how this scene feels like it's EXACTLY what I imagined when reading the book.

      @@carlitocool8393 Wonderfully dark isn't it? I can't stand Mamamia or Notting Hill. I like the scene where the boy is hiding under the chairs and they all rip off their wigs. This film used to frighten me as a child, but I just love it's sinister tone and dark feel.
