My #1 favorite version right after the Disney cartoon

im 25 and i grew up watching this because my mom had it recorded on videotape. its so great! i think this is defiently a great take on this story. i never expected it to be exactly like the book. the book is so short that it wouldnt work for a full movie. this expanded and added some great characters. fritz is my favorite! i cant believe that more people dont know about this movie, ive been watching this since i was 5! and to this day its still a magical movie for halloween. and jeff goldblum....was there ever more perfect casting? hes hilarious! and meg foster is gorgeus as katrina!
