Some of these figures will become friends, some foes. Joined by well-meaning-but-hapless weredog Raww (Dave Franco) and a small-but-mighty pack of pals, Jo and Raissa must face The Dreaded Manananggal (Lea Salonga), the most feared creature on the island. When they discover that the memories of their entire friendship are the price for returning home, Jo and Raissa will race to find a way to leave the island before they forget each other forever.

Supernaturally, of course.” TOP CRITIC, Andrew Parker - “It’s a comedy, it’s a romance, it’s a horror movie, it’s a family drama, it’s a movie that has something for everybody, and [that's] why Practical Magic was a success in the first place.” Set 25 years after the original, sisters Sally (Sandra Bullock) and Gillian (Nicole Kidman) face a dangerous new crisis tied to the origins of their magic. When Sally's daughter (Joey King) uncovers long-buried secrets and begins to develop dark, unpredictable abilities, the family is thrust into a multi-generational struggle to end their ancestral curse.

As past and present collide, they risk everything to finally break the curse and protect future generations from its deadly legacy.
