Spell in movies


What other movies that are worth watching, have great spells? The only other one I can think of is, The Mummy, with the great Christopher Lee and Peter Cushing.

Certainly right about 'The Mummy' and it's well researched spell (''the Scroll of Life''). As for other spells, I think that 'The Raven' (an AIP comedy-fantasy-adventure with Vincent Price) had great visual spells in buckets!

Several are cast in "Hocus Pocus" either by Bette Midler's witch or by all three Sanderson sisters (Bette, Sarah Jessica Parker and Kathy Najimy). There's even a spell that is sung to lure the children away.

In "Legend", the goblin Blix casts a number of spells while wielding the unicorn's horn.

In Disney's "Snow White", the Witch Queen also casts spells.

In "The Secret Garden" (1994), the children create a chant as a summoning spell.

There is a very obscure TV movie titled "Witch's Sister" that has spells and old rhymes.

I managed to gather together a number of spells from films and TV at this site:

I'm sure that I've forgotten many. I do know that I want to add the one from "Excalibur".

....errr, would the one in Army of Darkness count?

Would the cherry vomit from Witches Of Eastwick count?

I guess LOTR is way too obvious, but I'll point it out just in case anyone in the world hasn't seen it yet.

Then, there is The *beep* from Your Highness.
