About the film

The Witches is a 1990 dark fantasy film directed by Nicolas Roeg from a screenplay by Allan Scott and based on Roald Dahl's novel of the same name. The film stars Anjelica Huston and Mai Zetterling and concerns evil witches who masquerade as ordinary women and follows an orphaned boy and his grandmother, who must find a way to foil their plot of ridding the world of children. It is the last film project executive producer Jim Henson worked on before his death, with Jim Henson Productions co-producing the film and Jim Henson's Creature Shop designing and building the prosthetics for the titular characters and animatronic murids that were used interchangeably with real ones. Filming took place in Norway and England from April to August of 1988. The film's release was delayed following the dissolution of its theatrical distributor Lorimar Film Entertainment.

Where it streams

How to watch it together from different places

Each of you opens The Witches on your own account. Herae keeps the two players in sync, so a pause or a skip happens for both of you, and puts a video call in the corner of the film so you can see each other react.
