Viewing Notes

Finally got to my rewatch of Escape to Witch Mountain (thanks to Dave3 from Geeks of Doom prompting; he was watching the flick the same afternoon). Barely remembering anything other than the flying Winnebago and my childhood crush on Kim Richards, the flick is cute and silly. Can understand the desire for the forthcoming remake.
