Moonlight Movies presents the second (and arguably the scariest!) installment in the Harry Potter movie series, based on the books by J.K. Rowling. It’s sophomore year for Harry Potter at Hogwart’s Academy of all things Wizardry, and things are getting real. Good Times: meeting house elf Dobby, flying cars, and Hagrid’s friendly giant spider. Things Not So Good: an escaped Basilisk, Draco Malfoy’s smirk, and a plot to deport and/or destroy all muggle-born students. And as for the message given by caretaker Argus Filch’s cat, Mrs. Norris: “the Chamber of Secrets has been opened, enemies of the heir… beware!”
