Somehow like 4 years ago it was just agreed by a certain segment of the population it was a classic, and nobody can explain it.
lol what? Wha'ts to explain? There's no need to try ot make a super complicated situation where one doesn't exist. St. Augustine pretty much hit on it up above but it's very speicifc to a particular age range apparently. I was born in 85 so the 90s encompassed ages 5-15 for me, so I'm right in the wheelhouse of this topic. Hocus Pocus came out when I was 7 which is right in the sweet spot; I was old enough to not be actually be scared by it but was still young enough to enjoy the zany funny hijinks that took palce with a small dose of scariness mixed in. Everyone my age within a few years loved it, and by extension our poarents loved it too because we'd all watch together as families. Fast forward 30 years and now you have a bunchof people in their mid-late 30s that like it because we grew up with it. There's not some big secret mystery on what it's so well liked.
A "classic"? I mean, I don't know who is saying that. You coudl argue it's a classic in the genre of "family friendly/kid acceptable halloween movies" I suppose.
