Nowadays it is considered a Halloween classic right up there with the greats. Even Disney eventually came to acknowledge it as a classic: not only did they celebrate its anniversary with a special live show at the Ride/DisneyThemeParks on Halloween, they ultimately greenlit a ''{{sequel}}'' more than 20 years after the original.

* While it may not have been smart, Dani insulting Jay and Ice when they try to extort candy from her, it's pretty impressive that she's unimpressed and unafraid. Max had wanted to avoid them all together, but when Dani mentions he's with he, with confidence that they won't be able to do anything because of it, he looks like he'd rather be anywhere, but then takes off his sunglasses and joins her. Ultimately he's able to diffuse the situation enough that he and Dani leave unscathed (giving the bullies his own bag of candy).

* "I summon the burning rain of death!"
* Sure, it doesn't finish them off, but [[spoiler: luring the witches into a giant oven to burn them]] was a pretty good plan on Allison's part.

to:


* "I summon Thackery's the burning rain of death!"
whole reason why the witches get caught and sentenced in 1600s Salem. On seeing them luring his sister Emily to their cottage, he tells his friend Elijah to get help while he runs to the witches' cottage. Though he fails to save Emily, Elijah does raise an angry mob, led by Thackery's father, that manage to subdue the witches and string them on the gallows.
* Sure, it It's also obvious where Thackery got his courage and mettle from when Mr. Binx interrogates the sisters on the gallows. The man just had to bury his daughter, who was brutally murdered, and fight women that sold their souls to the devil, but he doesn't finish them off, but [[spoiler: luring let his grief get in the witches into a giant oven way of revenge. [[PapaWolf He demands where his son is]], yells at everyone to burn them]] was a pretty good plan on Allison's part.not listen to the witches' singing, and gives the order to execute the sisters.



** Then there's her [[KirkSummation talking back to Winifred]] after she's been captured. Girl's about to be killed by the witches and [[DefiantCaptive she's showing no fear.]]

to:

** * Max's potential for badass action also comes through when the witches threaten Dani. [[BigBrotherInstinct He tells them to get their hands off his little sister]]. Note he's saying this to women that he just summoned from the dead and who curb-stomp him with magic shortly after. Say what you will about Max's foolishness, but the kid is ''brave''.
* Allison and Dani fighting the witches when they first appear and start torturing Max. Allison whacks Mary with her broom and then with a frying pan to the head while Dani swats Sarah and Winifred with her trick-or-treat bag hard enough to knock them down.
-->'''Dani''': ''You leave my brother ALONE!''
* Max's bluff to get Dani and Allison out of the cottage: "I summon the burning rain of death!"
* Sure, it doesn't finish them off, but [[spoiler: luring the witches into a giant oven to burn them]] was a pretty good plan on Allison's part.
* Also Allison quickly using the knowledge from the book about salt to protect herself and Max from the witch's assault on their home. It earns some rare VillainRespect from Winifred, who calls her a "Clever white witch" as Allison glares.
*
Then there's her Dani's [[KirkSummation talking back to Winifred]] after she's been captured. Girl's about to be killed by the witches and [[DefiantCaptive she's showing no fear.]]



* Allison and Max's second bluff to rescue Dani, Binx and all the kids of Salem. Max storms into the cottage before the witches can kill Dani, says, "Prepare to die. AGAIN," and pretends the lights outside are the sun rising. It's actually the car headlights that Allison turned on, and it buys enough time for the kids to make it to the safety of the graveyard.
* Max attempting to whack Winifred with a bat. Again, it doesn't work because she catches it, but points for trying.



* Thackery knocking the potion out of Winifred's hand when she attempts to force Dani to drink it. Unlike the situation he was in hundreds of years ago, he was able to save someone from the Sanderson sisters' clutches.
