 PopMatters My Favorite Thing | Escape to and Return from Witch Mountain
The Witch Mountain storyline -- involving a pair of supernatural, extraterrestrial siblings trying to reunite with their other-worldly community -- entwines many powerful narratives, deftly synthesizing, for example, a potent wish-fulfillment fantasy with an almost beatific dream of ascending into the sky, of learning one is not of this Earth and, strangely, embracing this knowledge.
But here Witch Mountain turns out to be a sanctuary for the orphaned Tia and Tony, whose extraterrestrial brethren have established a kind of survivalist outpost there.

 Escape to Witch Mountain review (1975) - Qwipster's Movie Reviews
Of course, Escape wasn't nearly the national phenomenon when it was released, but it did strike a chord with a decent amount of children out there, enough to spawn a sequel, Return from Witch Mountain.
The two extraordinary orphaned children are Tia and Tony, who have the ability to do such things as move objects with their minds, predict the future, and talk to animals.
It would seem a good deal for the children, but they can sense the men are no good underneath, and make a getaway to find a location shown in a secret map that might tell them something about their past and what happened to their family.

 Escape to Witch Mountain DVD Review
Escape to Witch Mountain is an enjoyable film that remains close to the Disney formula of the studio's more successful live action films of the '60s and '70s, while attempting to be more of a genre work.
As Escape to Witch Mountain is essentially a 2-disc Vault Disney set pared down to a single-disc, its menu offers at start, the option to go to "The Film" (what would be Disc 1) and "The Vault" (the would-be bonus disc that is also on this disc).
Though this pared-down Special Edition of Escape to Witch Mountain is a far cry from the hours of content found on previous double-disc Vault Disney releases, it is still by and far a satisfying release.

 dOc DVD Review: Escape to Witch Mountain: SE (1975)
In Escape to Witch Mountain, Tia (Kim Richards) and Tony (Ike Eisenmann) don't see dead people, nor are they tortured by their ESP. Instead, they get to have fun with their awesome mental gifts—telepathy, levitation, telekinesis, and other talents that would turn any normal kid (and even Stephen King's Carrie) green with envy.
Although ballyhooed at the time of the film's release, Witch Mountain's wizardry might seem cheesy by today's high-tech standards, but taken in the context of its time, it's easy to appreciate the creativity and invention of Disney's imagineers.
Escape to Witch Mountain remains an engaging family classic and one of Disney's better efforts in the live-action genre.

Seeing The Mountain Witch as "an RPG designed to play the included adventure only" is helpful, recalling earlier "single-shot RPGs" like Charles Ryan's Psychosis or Lester Smith's Zero.
Timothy Kleinert's The Mountain Witch (142-page digest-sized paperback, mostly fl and white with full-color illustrations, plus six Fate cards, $24) is more constrained than My Life With Master, and stands as perhaps the state of the art of story-centric RPG design.
If you want to play "samurai Reservoir Dogs climbing Mount Fuji to kill a witch" then this is an excellent game to use for that; as I've said elsewhere, The Mountain Witch is the greatest five-sixteenths-inch socket wrench ever.
