I married a what?

Fredric March of “Seven Days in May” (1964) fame gets to quickly play several descendants of the pilgrim Wooley (Jonathan, Nathaniel, Samuel, and Wallace). That is the pilgrim who burned witches, Jennifer (Veronica Lake) and Daniel (Cecil Kellaway), in the 17th century. On their way up in smoke, a curse is placed on the Wooley descendants that they should be unhappily married. It was inevitable that the evil father and daughter witch team would return to do more mischief. Will this backfire, and will he or she learn not to be so evil, or will they keep it bottled up? You may be able to identify with the curse. So, you need to be sure your spouse sees you laugh at this. This is one of those situation comedies that you just assume they end up together. Do not be too sure. There is extraordinarily little resemblance between this story and the situation comedy “Bewitched.” I have had several copies as they slowly improve the picture and even the sound. The best copy at the time of this review is “I Married a Witch” (Criterion Collection) [Blu-ray]. They used a 2k restoration process. There are a couple of times that it looks like they missed; however, for the most part, it is a perfect restoration. There is no voice-over commentary or making-of extras.
