If Roald Dahl's The Witches hit the spot, these will too

The same two preoccupations: hotel, and witch
The difference: Not nearly as witty as Roald Dahl's The Witches

Both are Robert Zemeckis's work, and they rhyme
The difference: Made in the 1990s, in a different era of the craft

Both land wit and play at once

Dreamlike where it counts, dread-soaked underneath

Comedy built on unease, twice over

One thread runs through both: orphan

Witty horror in both cases

Playful fantasy, and it commits to that
The difference: Leans harder into animation than Roald Dahl's The Witches does

The same preoccupation in both: witch

Family with a pulse of dream logic, in both cases

Both lean on dread more than on fantasy

Unsettling comedy, and it commits to that
In the mood for more witty?
