Three high school students - with a haunting similarity to the Sandersons - try to thwart the witches’ plans to steal the youth of children in the updated take, helmed by Anne Fletcher (“The Proposal,” “The Guilt Trip”).

Patricia Neal rightly won a Best Actress Academy Award for portraying the ranch’s housekeeper Alma, broken down by Hud’s abuse but who manages to escape. Newman cuts a mean figure as the original antihero of 1960s, earning a Best Actor Oscar nomination for his performance. Based on, natch, a book by Larry McMurtry, “Hud” centers on Newman as the prodigal and spiritually empty son of a rancher, against the backdrop of a foot-and-mouth disease outbreak killing all their cattle.
