Parents need to know that Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 1, the second-to-last installment in the epic Harry Potter movie saga (all based on the books by J.K. Rowling) is the darkest, most intense yet. It has the highest body count of any Potter film, including the deaths of several recurring characters -- some of which are particularly emotional and upsetting. Harry (Daniel Radcliffe), Ron (Rupert Grint), Hermione (Emma Watson), and their friends are bloodied, injured, and cursed. In one startling "jump" scene, Lord Voldemort's (Ralph Fiennes) giant killer snake bursts out of an old woman's body; there's also a particularly disturbing torture scene in which a major character is branded with an insult. Expect lots of longing looks and protective embraces between Ron and Hermione, a passionate snog between Harry and Ginny (Bonnie Wright), and a scene of "ghost" versions of Harry and Hermione tormenting Ron with a sensual kiss (they appear to be nude, and you can see their torsos, but it's quite blurry/misty). Despite the amped-up angst and violence, the characters prove again and again that unconditional friendship, loyalty, and love can survive even the most harrowing of threats. Courage, perseverance, and teamwork remain core themes. To stay in the loop on more movies like this, you can sign up for weekly Family Movie Night emails.

As they make their escape, you can see several nods back to the first few "Harry Potter" movies. Notable ones are the chess pieces from "The Sorcerer's Stone" and Gilderoy Lockhart's cornish pixies from "The Chamber of Secrets." The props department apparently filled the room with props and objects they used in the first few movies.

The Wizarding World franchise is still one of the most popular around with the newest movie, Fantastic Beats: The Secrets of Dumbledore recently released. There's been a lot of expansion of the universe in recent years but Harry Potter movies, in particular, tend to retain their popularity over the Fantastic Beasts series.
Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince may not have been the most faithful adaptation of the book, but it remains one of the middle-earning movies in the series and was an important part of the overall story. Featuring the death of a very important character, The Half-Blood Prince feels like a penultimate pitstop before the final phase of the story.
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Part One is the first part of the two-part epic adaptation of the final book in the Harry Potter series. With Harry, Ron, and Hermione tasked with finding and destroying all of Voldemort's Horcruxes around the country, there are far more duels and pivotal moments than the other Harry Potter movies have. It even shows some of the universe's underappreciated Muggles.
Warner Brothers studio plans to make JK Rowling's last book in the Harry Potter series into a two-part film with the first chapter opening in 2010, Hollywood media reported on Thursday.
Part one of "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows" will hit the screen in November 2010 and the second will appear in May 2011, Variety reported.
Warner decided to split the story from the 784-page book into two parts as it hopes for continued success at the box office after previous movies generated 4.5 billion dollars worldwide, the industry paper said.
David Yates will return as director, having overseen the fifth film "Harry Potter and the Order of Phoenix" and the sixth film, "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince," which is due to be released in November.
Steve Kloves will write the screen adaptation of the seventh and final book of the wildly successful Potter series, having written all previous screenplays except for the "Order of the Phoenix" movie.
The Harry Potter books have sold around 350 million copies worldwide and are translated into 65 different languages, making British author Rowling into a billionaire.
The "Deathly Hallows" book, which came out in July and features Potter and his friends battling his nemesis Voldemort to the death, sold a record 11 million copies in the first 24 hours after its release.
