A young orphaned boy moves to live with his beloved grandmother in the small town of Demopolis, Alabama. When the boy and the grandmother encounter deceptively stylish, but thoroughly devilish witches, the grandmother rushes our young hero to the safety of a wonderful seaside resort.
Unfortunately, however, they arrive at the hotel at the same moment as the Great Supreme of All, who has summoned witches from all over the world to carry out her nefarious plans. Directed by Robert Zemeckis. As actors, e.g. Anne Hathaway, Octavia Spencer and Stanley Tucci.
