    Today we're breaking down the Disney Channel Original Movie "Halloweentown 2: Kalabar's Revenge" which came out in 2001, 3 years after the original. In this installment, Kimberly J Brown plays Marnie Cromwell who has to defeat Kalabar's son, Cal, with Debbie Reynolds, by chasing down a bunch of random clues in a tragic excuse for a sequel. To the point where I'm actually mad about it! As always, don't forget to like and subscribe!

      Same. When I was four, we went for a ride on my great uncle's boat. It was after dark when we got back, and I was walking - already WALKING - down the gangplank when my father said, "Be careful, Mary. If you slip, you'll fall in the water and no one will ever see you again." And I looked down at the black, shining water under me and I thought their were child-stealing monsters in there. Honestly, if he had told me I would drown I think it would have scared me less.

We couldn’t remember that we were giving it to someone and for sure no guest would have a reason to take it or even technically left the house with a huge meat grinder. Just out of curiosity, we searched every room very carefully and just agreed that it disappeared 😅

    40:29 That really is dumb. Now everyone who just says 'Apart' or 'Trap A' just casts a spell. Clearly it's not based on intent if Marnie can do it accidentally. Plus it's been established that non-wizards can use magic so there's no reason why this place shouldn't be constantly switching between Gray Spell and Non-Gray Spell. Maybe Marnie's desire to fix things triggered the spell, I mean Cromwells are super magic and Marnie's half-human so maybe she has more power in a way. But yeah I've put more effort into my rant/theory than this film put into their plot/makeup/characterization.
