'Eastwick' review: Heck of a mess

Somebody really, really wants audiences to visit Eastwick. John Updike's 1984 novel "The Witches of Eastwick" enchanted movie audiences in 1987 -- thanks, Jack Nicholson -- and, well, didn't so much put a spell on them with a 2002 television movie starring Marcia Cross, Kelly Rutherford and Lori Loughlin.

The nipples of Eastwick.

Published in 1984, The Witches of Eastwick is John Updike's eleventh novel. Stylistically, it is perhaps his ripest, luxuriant even by the prose master's own sumptuous standards, as befits a story about sorcery.
