Don't Look Under the Bed also had controversy with the kiss at the end. As a kid, you don't realize the scope of the kiss being such uncharted ground, but in recent years an interview came out with the director revealing that he had to fight for the kiss to be kept in, because Disney executives were worried about the southern affiliates being against mixed race kissing. Ty Hodges also mentioned it on Christy Carlson Romano's channel. Much respect to the director. My unpopular Halloween opinion has always been Don't Look Under the Bed >>>> Halloweentown, so finding that out only gave me more appreciation for the movie as an adult.
God, Disney has always been so backwards. Nickelodeon was airing movies and TV shows with interracial kisses since its inception. Yet another reason that Are You Afraid of the Dark? will always surpass any Disney Channel movie! (Not to mention, AYAOTD didn't shy away from the very real, grim topic of death and murder -- even of children.) Side note, Don't Look Under the Bed >>>>> Halloweentown is the correct opinion!
It's honestly crazy that Disney would be worried about such a thing in the early 2000s, as if interracial marriage hadn't been legal for 50 years at point.
I never watched the 4th installment of Halloween Town, but learning that they recast Kimberly J. Brown for no reason kind of irks me. Typically they'll do that if the actor/actress is difficult to work with, but Kimberly would frequent a Starbucks that I used to work at and she was always sweet and pleasant. Disney tends to hyper-focus on one kid/teen star at a time, so its likely that they wanted to mold Sara Paxton into a Miley Cyrus, Demi Lovato type. She can sing so it would make sense that they would push for her to be cast in shows/movies to build a following.
"Mom's Got A Date With A Vampire" was literally the first thing I watched when I got Disney+. I liked it because the Dad from "The Nanny" was in it, as well as one of the aunt's from "Sabrina The Teenage Witch" and I watched it every time it was on tv.
I can't believe you left out "My Babysitter's a Vampire" !! It was one of my favorite DCOMs ever and the show was pretty great too. Great vid besides that :)
so My Babysitter's a Vampire was actually a Canadian Teletoon original movie! it did air in the US on disney channel, but since it's not technically a DCOM, I didn't include it. definitely still an iconic kids halloween tv film though, I remember watching it on disney channel when it came out!
Nathan Stephenson aka “Griffin from Degrassi” was actually a main character on another “The N” show called Radio Free Roscoe. It actually came on right after Degrassi at one point(this was when The N was a time slot for teens on the kid’s channel Noggin, before it merged with Nickelodeon). Radio Free Roscoe was pretty good and has a super catchy theme song.
The conflict of 'Invisible Sister" reminds me of another DCOM/fever dream 'Wish Upon a Star' which has the honor of being where I learned what virginity meant. It's a 'body-swap with someone until you learn to live in their shoes' story, but despite having a LOT of adult themes and staring two pretty well known actresses (Katherine Heigl and Danielle Harris) no one ever talk about it. You should check it out if you haven't seen it.
Here's my issue with Halloweentown also ;;SOPHIE WAS CLEARLY THE MORE POWERFUL WITCH WHERE IS HER SPINOFF GIVE US SOPHIE THE PSYCHIC FROG-LOCK MAKING QUEEN
I'm not sure if it technically counts as a DCOM, and it's not quite a Halloween movie, but Susie Q is a movie I saw on the Disney Channel, and I remember it being darker than most other movies on that channel. It wasn't really scary, but two teenagers die in the opening, and it was all about a girl's ghost. Not really Hallween vibes, but kind of! It was really fun to revisit these with this video, and you constantly recognizing actors from Degrassi was really funny.
Susie Q came out in 1996 when they were called "Disney Channel Premiere Films." It annoys me that people refuse to include them among lists of DCOMs. It's the same thing, just a different name. Susie Q is also *way* better than almost anything Disney Channel has put out in the past 20 years.
Halloweentown deserves a good rewatch right about now And also I’d be down for a whole channel that just points out when a Degrassi alum is in a movie/TV show
Tower of terror was also the original giant drop ride at Disneyland (that’s since been changed to guardians of the galaxy😕) and I think might also be in that weird category of Disney movie that gets made AFTER a ride is in one of the parks,like the first Pirates of The Caribbean movie was
The lady that plays the dumb woman in Twitches actually still plays that dumb role soooo well. She is in Schitts Creek and the mayors wife and it's basically the same character except she has some sweet small town charm added to it. She also has a role in the new movie crawlspace that again is the same but she does soooo well. I have fallen in love with her as a actress so much over the years.
Don’t look under the bed is one of my FAVORITE Disney movies ever. I’m lowkey biased cause I had a crush on the boogieman ( both the male and female one but in there non boogieman form of course) Also the male boogieman is literally so funny and entertaining to me
I'm so ready for Halloween and clearly UA-cam knows since they just recommended this to me. As much as Halloweentown is the quintessential Halloween DCOM and I love it, it's my #2. Don't Look Under the Bed is definitely my #1. Also, a lot of DCOMs were shot in Canada after a certain year, so you'll see a ton of recognizable Canadian actors.
Without any spoilers other than last place, I am hoping Don't Look Under the Bed is number one. It probably isn't, it never is, but it's my personal favourite DCOM and it's definitely a Halloween movie.
I loved Don't Look Under the Bed as a kid, but they stopped playing it on Disney Channel, and then when illegal streaming became a thing, I couldn't find it ANYWHERE. At one point I got into an argument with another person over whether or not it even existed. Finally they put it on Disney+ and I was avenged.
I've had so many people say "what about this movie?" that I'm thinking maybe next year I'll do a "kids halloween movies I missed in the last video" type video lol
Don’t look under the bed is one of my favorite Disney movies I’ve always been into “creepy” things that most kids were easily scared by like goosebumps, haunting hour, Coraline probably why I like horror now also I’ve always hated the recast in Halloween town
I don’t recall “Don’t Look Under The Bed” being scary as a kid. It was odd and a bit creepy and a little gross, but I guess I just never really got scared of that stuff. Even goosebumps wasn’t creepy to me. It could be my parents didn’t shelter me from watching lore grown up shows and such, but I just found it on the spooky/creepy side.
This is such an old video at this point but I feel compelled to say that there is a third Degrassi actor in Twitches : That really dumb woman, the first actress plays Eli's mom (as well as Jocelyn in Schitt's Creek) and I love her
me, watching this immediately after watching your degrassi video: hey it's griffin from degrassi you: it's griffin from degrassi! very satisfying moment
I love your videos so much. I was literally so depressed when I started watching this and you distracted me and make me feel like I was talking to a friend. Thank you I adore you.
I remember a rumor floating around that the reason the recasted for holloween town is because they wanted to turn it into a TV show and the new Marnie wasn't gaining popularity.... Don't know how true this is it I was very young when I was reading about it
Tower of Terror was technically a Wonderful World of Disney Movie, but I'm happy you included it on the list because it is my personal favorite Halloween movie. Such an underrated classic!
Daaaaamn. You didn’t get far enough in Degrassi to realize there were THREE actors in Twitches Too, and you were just talking about her! Cece Goldsworthy!
I watched return to halloweentown once as a kid and once as an adult (my OCD wouldnt let me walk away knowing it was the "4th" technical movie) and ive since convinced myself that halloweentown is a trilogy and i actually forgot about return to halloweentown 😂😂😂😂😂
I watched Halloweentown for the first time last year and I was DELIGHTED! And we did it while carving pumpkins. It was absolutely magical as someone who just likes cozy Halloween
Okay, but I know this is kind of random but I would watch a breakdown of Flight 29 Down, if you would go easy enough on it. It was a cute show and when I was ten I was incredibly invested and took that show very seriously. Also, apparently one of the actors was like, 25 when he was in that show. And I was none the wiser???? He was literally 25 when he played someone MAYBE 18 at the oldest and my dumb kid brain was never the wiser. He played Cody. (Whom I had a very big crush on)
I actually loved that show as a kid! I think it aired on Discovery Kids. honestly I would love to make a video that's a Discovery Kids deep dive, I used to watch a ton of shows on that channel
I actually like Return to Halloweentown more than Halloweentown High. I didn't really like that most of the movie was spent in the human world and most of the characters were pretending to blend in with humans. I don't like that they recast Kimberly J. Brown either. She definitely makes the character much more immature than she should be at that point, but I still liked seeing Halloweentown. It gave the movie a bit more of a Halloween vibe than Halloweentown High did for me. I agree with your points on the chosen one narrative and the plot in general. It wasn't the best note for the series to go out on, but despite the recasting, I didn't dislike it nearly as much as other fan seem to. I do want to check out Invisible Sister since I've heard good things about it.
I liked dont look under the bed better than Halloweentown but i have kind of a weird perspective cause i only watched them both recently as an adult in my 30's, we didn't have disney channel growing up, so i dont know which i would have preferred if i saw them as a kid. I was however completely terrified by the Wishbone version of the legend of Sleepy hollow as a kid 😂
Don't Look Under The Bed was one of my favorites growing up, it was so creative and unique. But I never knew people complained about it and they stopped airing it, so when my sisters and I saw it on Disney+ we were so excited to watch it! But I'd have to say Halloweentown is also my favorite, with Mom's Got a Date as my second. I really miss that era of Disney and wish they'd make more fun/spooky Halloween movies again.
Like degrassi, the Magicians is a great place to find A LOT of Canada bases actors who you'll reconize if you watch other CA based shows. Also, it sort of runs in the say vein Degrassi but a bit more magic.
Ngl I watched Invisible Sister in like a DCom Halloween themed marathon thanks to this video and ended up thinking it was pretty cute. The dynamic between the sisters actually got to me. Tbh the performances from the leads I thought were pretty good. Ngl I recognized the older sister from Keyan’s video on Mighty Med which is a tv show kinda after my time, but I think it’s kinda a widespread opinion that the girl playing Skylar can’t act bc it was her first job, but I thought she was pretty good here! The funniest thing abt the movie is that the two sisters do not look anything alike, but you kinda have to buy into like, fairy tale / masquerade trope / theater rules and pretend wearing a mask would convince everyone that the one girl is her sister. I think most ppl find that immersion breaking, but I find it hilarious and I love it. Interestingly tho, both actresses are mixed Filipino (As a fellow Filipino American that may or may not have influenced me to be a little biased and root for these girls & their careers lol). Also you’re right about the himbo boyfriend, he rules. Twitches was also in the Halloween marathon, & I have to say. I think the Mowry sister’s performances really carry the movie, they’re really great. It’s cute & I enjoyed it, but I couldn’t help but notice it’s cheapness. There’s so much weird ADR, and the limited sets detracts from the realness of Coventry so it kinda just feels like an empty castle lol. No Halloweentown movies bc I was kinda saving them for later. Bc they really at the GOAT. I was in Oregon & stopped by the town where it was filmed. Which coincidentally is also where the back alley bookstore scene in twilight was filmed!
also, griffin from degrassi was in my babysitter’s a vampire, the best friend from girl vs monster was in mr young and the woman who played eli’s mum on degrassi was also in the new netflix show ginny and georgia AND wingin’ it with dylan everett who was also on degrassi🤣 side note: there are like 5 degrassi alum in ginny and georgia.
I just found your channel today from your Degrassi video and then I saw this video pop up and I must say we are twins lol. I think I'm older than you, me a 32 year old lady, but your opinions are the same as mine! I love your vids!
I was on tenterhooks waiting to see if you would ever mention that the dumb lady from Twitches is Eli's mom in Degrassi (best known as Jocelyn from Schitt's Creek).
My sister has been watching degrassi, and my only knowledge of this show is literally your video and like random clips from UA-cam, but I’ve been quoting to her “ is that blank from degrassi?” for no reason, at any occasion. Especially craig, I was watching the umbrella academy bloopers the other and was like is that…craig from degrassi? Idk how i knew he wears full face make up, but i knew
I know this is an old video but I just found your channel. While I definitely agreed with your list I was so sad one of my favs 'When Good Ghouls Go Bad' didn't make the cut. But then I realized even though I watched it on Disney...it's actually a fox movie. Still highly recommend it though
One thing that would be awesome is if you could do a video on the 90's Are you afraid of the dark series and rank your favorite and least favorite episodes of the series😁 ps love your channel Jane❤🧡💛💚💙💜💖
Okay, we all know wattpad fan fiction is always about a half demon wolf girl who is abused, bullied, and bad at everything. I think you're referring to quotev. 🤣🤣🤣
Phantom of the megaplex is the most random movie to have left a strong impression on child me. I dont remember any of it besides brief flashes and that i was scared of it?
I think the fact that I was only 6 when I saw Don't Look Under the Bed in 1999 and it DIDN'T scare me is proof that I was pretty fearless; I loved that dcom actually.... how did I not notice it getting yanked from Disney channel??
I know this video is from years ago but im shocked you made a point to mention the cast of Mom's got a date with a vampire and not mention the vampire was MISTER SHEFFIELD FROM THE NANNY!?!?
I think tower of terror was based off the Disney Hollywood studios twilight zone tower or terror ride where you’re in a haunted hotel in an elevator lol
Today I learned When Good Ghouls Go Bad was a Fox Family Channel movie and not Disney. Guess that's what happens when you grew up in Canada with the Family Channel having mostly DCOM movies, but some other ones mixed in as well to spice it up.
The dumbest revelation I had while watching this video is that if Manny married Craig in Degrassi then her name would’ve been Manny Manning.
I think Manuela manning is worse lol I can barely say it 😅
She could totally keep her Maiden name. 🤣
OH MY GOD I WAS LITERALLY THINKING OF THAT YESTERDAY!!!!!!
Is THAT ____ from DEGRASSIIII??? is the best thing to come out of literally any media made in Canada
I remember when I met Kimberly J Brown I told her that Halloweentown was one of my favorite "trilogies". She laughed and agreed. Super sweet woman
Don't Look Under the Bed also had controversy with the kiss at the end.

they literally could’ve made halloweentown high a series and i wouldn’t complain like halloweentown has so much potential for universe building
I can't believe that you didn't point out that the "dumb lady" you liked so much in Twitches is Eli's mom Cece from Degrassi!
"Mom's Got A Date With A Vampire" was literally the first thing I watched when I got Disney+. I liked it because the Dad from "The Nanny" was in it, as well as one of the aunt's from "Sabrina The Teenage Witch" and I watched it every time it was on tv.
I was 5 when I first watched don't look under the bed, and it was the first time a movie truly scared me. I had nightmares for weeks.
also fun fact: jennifer robertson, the woman you praised who was recast in the second twitches movie, also plays jocelyn on schitt's creek
oh I had no idea!! I'm so glad she's been in some good stuff, like I said, she's good!
I thought I was the only one!! That movie terrified me as kid😂
@@jane-mulcahyyou’re my best friend Jane I really like you ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Radio Free Roscoe was pretty good and has a super catchy theme song.
They changed the rules around, and had a different sound.
@@boostbeetle Tune into the underground☺️☺️☺️
I feel the same way about the Halloweentown trilogy, but the fourth abomination has the best song in it. It's a bop and confusingly adult.
The conflict of 'Invisible Sister" reminds me of another DCOM/fever dream 'Wish Upon a Star' which has the honor of being where I learned what virginity meant. It's a 'body-swap with someone until you learn to live in their shoes' story, but despite having a LOT of adult themes and staring two pretty well known actresses (Katherine Heigl and Danielle Harris) no one ever talk about it. You should check it out if you haven't seen it.
This one along with Susie Q and Smart House are my faves from that era of Disney Channel movies!!!
Wish upon a star is not an official dcom
oh my god I fcking lost it when the Shep "and you're a little btch clip played". I fully brought my hand to my mouth.
Here's my issue with Halloweentown also ;;SOPHIE WAS CLEARLY THE MORE POWERFUL WITCH WHERE IS HER SPINOFF GIVE US SOPHIE THE PSYCHIC FROG-LOCK MAKING QUEEN

I agree with yo about Halloween Town. Such a shame they never made more than the 3. Was such a good set of movies
that lady they replaced in twitches too was also in degrassi!! she played eli’s mom and she went on to be in schitts creek as jocelyn!
Halloweentown deserves a good rewatch right about now
And also I’d be down for a whole channel that just points out when a Degrassi alum is in a movie/TV show
then you'll want to stay tuned for my next video! 👀
Tower of terror was also the original giant drop ride at Disneyland (that’s since been changed to guardians of the galaxy😕) and I think might also be in that weird category of Disney movie that gets made AFTER a ride is in one of the parks,like the first Pirates of The Caribbean movie was
It's still at Disney World at Hollywood Studios. Classic ride and movie.
The lady that plays the dumb woman in Twitches actually still plays that dumb role soooo well. She is in Schitts Creek and the mayors wife and it's basically the same character except she has some sweet small town charm added to it. She also has a role in the new movie crawlspace that again is the same but she does soooo well. I have fallen in love with her as a actress so much over the years.
That cat chomp cracked me up 🤣
the "___ FROM DEGRASSI?" meme took me out every time
Don’t look under the bed is one of my FAVORITE Disney movies ever. I’m lowkey biased cause I had a crush on the boogieman ( both the male and female one but in there non boogieman form of course) Also the male boogieman is literally so funny and entertaining to me

The Guardian lady in the first twitches was Eli’s mom in degrassi
omg! I can't believe I didn't notice. she seems like one of those Canadian actors that's just been in everything Canadian lol
Without any spoilers other than last place, I am hoping Don't Look Under the Bed is number one. It probably isn't, it never is, but it's my personal favourite DCOM and it's definitely a Halloween movie.
Return to halloween town felt like a personal insult
Toby from Degrassi was in the first Twitches 😂
Kimberly J. Brown deserved to do Halloweentown High :/ Marnie was everyone’s favorite, I remember everyone being Kimberly’s Marnie for Halloween :(
Halloween Town was my whole childhood 😭 for real though some of these movies were scary af when I was a kid!
Under wraps is underrated! It was the first DCOM I ever saw. “All by myself” has been burned into my brain ever since
I loved Don't Look Under the Bed as a kid, but they stopped playing it on Disney Channel, and then when illegal streaming became a thing, I couldn't find it ANYWHERE. At one point I got into an argument with another person over whether or not it even existed. Finally they put it on Disney+ and I was avenged.
You are iconic. I love your videos
I love the mention if Degrassi actors it made me ridiculously happy to see them in other stuff
i know its technically not a dcom, but my babysitters a vampire was so good. an absolute crime that it wasnt included
I've had so many people say "what about this movie?" that I'm thinking maybe next year I'll do a "kids halloween movies I missed in the last video" type video lol
This is criminally under-watched
I can't wait for your channel to blow up
@@nataliachaykowski3352 We’re going to be OG watchers when it does so I’m excited
11:20 that kid was in radio free roscoe too! omg. his smile just unlocked memories I forgot I had lmao.

is that... MR SHEFFIELD FROM THE NANNY?!

I'm gonna stop now but CRAIG
18:56 the mom,I recognize her from Sabrina the teenage witch.
David Carradine also has a cameo on Lizzie McGuire, and also references Kung Fu. :)
I love your videos so much. I was literally so depressed when I started watching this and you distracted me and make me feel like I was talking to a friend. Thank you I adore you.
I remember a rumor floating around that the reason the recasted for holloween town is because they wanted to turn it into a TV show and the new Marnie wasn't gaining popularity.... Don't know how true this is it I was very young when I was reading about it
man that sucks if it's true! all I know is the original actress has said she didn't leave willingly, which is super sad
Tower of Terror was technically a Wonderful World of Disney Movie, but I'm happy you included it on the list because it is my personal favorite Halloween movie. Such an underrated classic!
Daaaaamn. You didn’t get far enough in Degrassi to realize there were THREE actors in Twitches Too, and you were just talking about her! Cece Goldsworthy!
That scene in Under Wraps where the girl pretends to have her eye has fallen out haunts me to this day.
I watched return to halloweentown once as a kid and once as an adult (my OCD wouldnt let me walk away knowing it was the "4th" technical movie) and ive since convinced myself that halloweentown is a trilogy and i actually forgot about return to halloweentown 😂😂😂😂😂
Liked as soon as I saw Halloweentown 4 was dead last, I'll never forget the disappointment watching that premiere :((
I can't believe I never realized that Jocelyn Schitt was in Twitches.
17:54 i feel like when that hit snl there was a disney exec somewhere crossing out that exact title in a notebook of show ideas
Official petition to put Tower of Terror on Disney+
What about Mostly ghostly? I’m not sure if it was a Disney movie but It played every monstober on Disney
I watched Halloweentown for the first time last year and I was DELIGHTED! And we did it while carving pumpkins. It was absolutely magical as someone who just likes cozy Halloween
phantom of the megaplex terrified me and gave me nightmares as a child
and this brought that feeling of dread back so thanks for that

There’s so much weird ADR, and the limited sets detracts from the realness of Coventry so it kinda just feels like an empty castle lol.
No Halloweentown movies bc I was kinda saving them for later. Bc they really at the GOAT. I was in Oregon & stopped by the town where it was filmed. Which coincidentally is also where the back alley bookstore scene in twilight was filmed!
I know I’m late to this video, but being born in the year 2000 and never watching SpongeBob is insane to me
also, griffin from degrassi was in my babysitter’s a vampire, the best friend from girl vs monster was in mr young and the woman who played eli’s mum on degrassi was also in the new netflix show ginny and georgia AND wingin’ it with dylan everett who was also on degrassi🤣 side note: there are like 5 degrassi alum in ginny and georgia.
This channel makes me so happy
The actress that got recast in Twitches 2 is also Eli’s mom in Degrassi.
Ok but Sean's mom is also in twitches too
I just found your channel today from your Degrassi video and then I saw this video pop up and I must say we are twins lol. I think I'm older than you, me a 32 year old lady, but your opinions are the same as mine! I love your vids!
Whaa no My Babysitters a Vampire? It even had a tv show after the movie with the best theme song ever lol
I was on tenterhooks waiting to see if you would ever mention that the dumb lady from Twitches is Eli's mom in Degrassi (best known as Jocelyn from Schitt's Creek).
Under wraps is one of the best Disney channel movies of all time IMO omg
My sister has been watching degrassi, and my only knowledge of this show is literally your video and like random clips from UA-cam, but I’ve been quoting to her “ is that blank from degrassi?” for no reason, at any occasion. Especially craig, I was watching the umbrella academy bloopers the other and was like is that…craig from degrassi? Idk how i knew he wears full face make up, but i knew
I know this is an old video but I just found your channel. While I definitely agreed with your list I was so sad one of my favs 'When Good Ghouls Go Bad' didn't make the cut. But then I realized even though I watched it on Disney...it's actually a fox movie. Still highly recommend it though
One thing that would be awesome is if you could do a video on the 90's Are you afraid of the dark series and rank your favorite and least favorite episodes of the series😁 ps love your channel Jane❤🧡💛💚💙💜💖
I'd like to see more of that series! I'll look into it ❤️
@@jane-mulcahy awesome😁
i am so hurt that the scream team is number 12
It’s so fucking gooooood this is a robbery
This was a dope video tho!!!!
Am i fucked up or did she forget to mention Hocus Pocus??
Immediately clicked the like button at the beginning of the video when I heard the "Redlettermedia" song 😂
The dad from the nanny. Interesting
haha truly a star-studded cast
Okay, we all know wattpad fan fiction is always about a half demon wolf girl who is abused, bullied, and bad at everything. I think you're referring to quotev. 🤣🤣🤣
Another Degrassi actress in 11:00 she plays Eli's mom, and also Jocelyn in Schitt's Creek
Phantom of the megaplex is the most random movie to have left a strong impression on child me. I dont remember any of it besides brief flashes and that i was scared of it?
The haunting hour was one of my favourite Halloween dcom
That original actress playing the ditzy guardians in Twitches looks familiar. Is that Jocelyn from Schitt's Creek?
I think the fact that I was only 6 when I saw Don't Look Under the Bed in 1999 and it DIDN'T scare me is proof that I was pretty fearless; I loved that dcom actually.... how did I not notice it getting yanked from Disney channel??
Tbh I would’ve put Phantom of the Megaplex last just because of Mickey Rooney 💀
I know this video is from years ago but im shocked you made a point to mention the cast of Mom's got a date with a vampire and not mention the vampire was MISTER SHEFFIELD FROM THE NANNY!?!?
I think tower of terror was based off the Disney Hollywood studios twilight zone tower or terror ride where you’re in a haunted hotel in an elevator lol
I won’t be silenced. I think Lizzie McGuire’s dad is kind of a dilf
Today I learned When Good Ghouls Go Bad was a Fox Family Channel movie and not Disney. Guess that's what happens when you grew up in Canada with the Family Channel having mostly DCOM movies, but some other ones mixed in as well to spice it up.
