A psychologist goes insane when his wife dies, and he drags his daughter into a life of the paranormal.
A really straightforward and tame movie. It's absolutely nothing compared to the awe that 80s kids movies have, and I would never recommend it to kids with a brain.

Witches return from wherever and chase some kids who foil their plans to stay.
Big meh. It's absolutely made for kids; it's over-the-top pointlessness.
Hocus-pocus, the magic words.

Failed-scientists begin a ghost capturing service, and the need for their services grows, threatening all of New York city.
I don't have a lot of movies anything like this which I could consider listing as mandatory, so this one gets in pretty easily.

A dog is transported to an alien planet whose ruler is bent on going to Earth for world domination.
Maybe it's a Canadian product of its time, but I find it simple, wholesome, and good for very young and very smart kids.

I don't know how to describe this without spoiling it.
It's good because it's pre-woke and can handle difficult topics.
Let's face it, this was likely inspired by Kimba the White Lion

Wholesome if you don't think about it too much, which is easy to do.
