Spoiler ahead for Hocus Pocus 2 on Disney +.
Almost 30 years after their ordeal in Salem, the Sanderson sisters return for the long-awaited Hocus Pocus continuation. Despite Hocus Pocus 2 a lot of easter eggs from the original movie, there is one thing that is slightly different. Avid fans will remember that Kathy Najimy’s Mary Sanderson had a crooked mouth. Although when the sisters are resurrected a second time, it is on the other side. Now the actress is revealing why this is so.
Kathy Najimy’s beloved witch is definitely known for having her own quirks and for tackling the short end of the stick when it comes to air travel. First Hocus Pocus, Mary’s mouth on one side was still twisted and it was never explained why and they keep it in the new movie, albeit in a slightly different way. Najimy spoke with uh about it and the explanation is simple but it makes a lot of sense:
It is on the other side mainly because it is very difficult for me to do it on the side where I did it 30 years ago. I’m sure fans will explain in detail why it’s on the other side. This is something that came to my mind in the first week. It’s a great comedy, so you don’t have to be subtle or have a 40-page Shakespearean backstory.
Hocus Pocus It was definitely a simple film at the time, which is why it is so loved to this day. The story was easy to follow; it was poor, but we still couldn’t help but love it. And most critics have found Hocus Pocus nice, so even though the twisted mouth was a small part of the movie, it made it downright interesting.
those who have seen Hocus Pocus 2 he may have figured out that there was actually a subtle explanation for the inverse tortuosity, according to Najimy:
We can justify that because there is a scene at the beginning where Winnie slaps me and my mouth goes to the other side, then she slaps me again, goes to the other side and punches herself.
Although the explanation is short, it works quite well, even if it is an unexpected plot. Given that the sisters have been away for so long, this could also explain why the crooked jaw is on the other side. But either way, Mary is as eccentric as ever and her transition from vacuum to Roomba proves it.
Meanwhile, the end of the Hocus Pocus 2 it could have signaled the return to the future of the Sanderson sisters, when a black cat crawled into a box labeled “BF # 2” as if there was a second black flame candle to bring them back. While talking about a third film may take some time, fans can still theorize what might happen and whether Mary’s mouth will be bent to the original side of her. Maybe we can also expect the return of Max, Dani and Allison? With Thora Birch horrified at not appearing in the sequel, there’s no doubt she’d want to come back for another if she had the chance.
Hocus Pocus 2 is now streaming on Disney + with a subscription, so be sure to grab your broomsticks and spell books for some creepy fun. If you need more fighting in your life, be sure to watch all the horror movies for 2022 and beyond.
