Hansel and Gretel

If taking candy from strangers is a bad idea, then eating candy houses is a definite no-no! In this re-telling of the tale by the Brothers Grimm, Hansel (NYPD Blue's Rick Schroder) and his sister Gretel are abandoned in the woods by their wicked stepmother (Dynasty's Joan Collins) and poor woodcutter father. Getting hungrier by the minute after they discover the birds have eaten their trail of breadcrumbs, the gingerbread house they see in the distance seems like the answer to their prayer. It is, until they meet the owner - a witch whose favorite meal happens to be little boys and girls. After she fattens them up, that is. Will they be able to outsmart (and roast) her themselves?
