A cast of TV pro's do their best in this juvenile Shaggy Dog copy. Eddie Albert is the father and Jane Wyatt the mother of two small boys and a teenage daughter. The setting is Halloween, and the boys wear bear costumes. One of them is played by Butch Patrick, several years before he was Eddie Munster. They meet up with a gypsy, who convinces them they can become real bears with a little salve and hocus pocus. The salve comes courtesy of the teenage daughter, played by a miscast Brenda Lee. She can't act worth a darn, has a heavy southern slur unlike anyone else in the family and sings a couple of songs that are hilariously awful. The boys become bears, get captured by forest rangers and are set free in the wilderness. They meet a grown female bear who teaches them to hibernate. This one falls squarely in the "so bad it's good" category.
