ZACK AND THE MAGIC FACTORY
![]() |
1981 rating: *** |
REPO MAN ingénue Olivia Barash, then a child actress who appeared in TV shows ranging from THE INCREDIBLE HULK to LITTLE HOUSE ON THE PRAIRIE, is a magician’s daughter that joins Zack in trying to rescue the building from a geeky yet sinister tax attorney, who, with the aid of a bitter custodian, tries closing it down for good. Meanwhile Zack, despite being bullied at school, plans a big magic show in the school auditorium, and with Olivia as his assistant they have but one shot at saving the beloved old factory. Overall, a pretty good storyline and likable characters will keep you interested in the turnout, and best of all, there’s a lotta cool magic tricks.
