  Thora Birch - AskMen.com
The sporadic success that Thora has experienced thus far might account for the fact that although most people will recognize her name, very few will be able to put a face to it.
From a young age, it became clear that Thora was made to pursue the same line of work that her mother and father had followed, although perhaps not in the same genre.
The film garnered a host of awards and Thora's performance in it was the object of a great deal of critical praise, launching her again into the public eye and onto the calling lists of casting directors.

  Thora Birch - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Thora Birch (born March 11, 1982) is an American actress and was one of the leading child actors of the 1990's, starring in movies such as Hocus Pocus (1993), Now and Then (1995), and Alaska (1996).
Birch was born in Los Angeles, California, the eldest child of Jack Birch and Carol Connors.
As Birch was barely 17 at the time she made the film, and thus classified as a minor in the United States, her parents had to approve her brief topless scene in the movie and they and child labor representatives were on the set for the shooting of it.

 Thora Birch - Biography
Thora's breakout movie was Paradise (1991) with bona fide stars Don Johnson and Melanie Griffith; Thora bested 4,000 young hopefuls to land the role, and she again got great reviews.
Thora appeared in Hocus Pocus (1993) with major stars; however, she got real recognition by having a starring role in Monkey Trouble (1994), in which her affection for her pet (and sometimes scene-stealing) monkey basically carried the entire movie (she and the monkey did their own stunts).
Thora delivered a strong, effective performance as the alienated daughter of parents whose mid-life crises drive them to affairs and destruction; her acting was convincing and inspired, and once again received good reviews.

The only saving graces here were the occasional kool horror imagery and the presence of gorgeous Thora Birch (& her ample cleavage) but that was far from enough to make this waste worth it.
Thora Birch (Karen/Susan) looked good (loved her as a blonde) and handled herself well; too bad the film let her down.
