A stellar cast of venerable character actors lends a touch of class to this 1975 Walt Disney live-action fantasy adventure about orphaned siblings Tony and Tia, who possess strange psychic and telekinetic gifts that they do not fully understand. Are they, in the words of a bullying classmate, "a couple of weirdos," or are their wondrous powers literally out of this world? Ray Milland stars as Bolt, a ruthless millionaire who wants to greedily harness their "sixth-sense incidents," Eddie Albert costars as the "impatient, selfish" curmudgeon in whose mobile home the young runaways escape from Bolt. What begins as intriguingly eerie descends in the last reel to supernatural slapstick, as Tony and Tia conjure up nonviolent ways to thwart their foolish adult pursuers, from mind-melding with a bear to flipping a helicopter. With its nifty stop-motion special effects, this is true escapist entertainment. Donald Liebenson

This fast-paced Disney endeavor stars Kim Richards and Ike Eisenmann as two adolescents with acute psychic powers. The kids are actually space aliens, but suffer from amnesia and are unaware of their origins. Pursued by greedy business-mogul Ray Milland, who wants to harness their special powers for his benefit, Kim and Ike are rescued by likeable camper Eddie Albert. He and the kids escape to the mountain of the title when Albert's RV suddenly acquires the power of flight. In 1978, the film spawned the sequel Return from Witch Mountain. Hal Erickson
