I'd have to admit I was never the greatest fan of these Disney films from the 1970s at the time. They were always just a bit too goody-goody for me. This one, however, pitches two of the best actors ever to play baddies - Ray Milland and Donald Pleasence together in a fun little sci-fi adventure. Kim Richards and Ike Eisenmann are two young kids with mysterious superpowers being chased by a nasty the millionaire and his sidekicks who want to harness their magical skills. They escape into the friendly arms/camper van of Eddie Albert and try to stay one step ahead of their pursuers as they head to what they think is their home on "Witch Mountain". It is a gentle family drama with some jolly performances from the three adult stars and some simple, but effective, special effects that make for a (slightly too long) excuse to reminisce.
