This movie deserved to be so much more successful
This movie has one of my favorite bloopers where MIchael J. Fox would accidentally yell "Doc!" instead of his actual line.
This movie is criminally underrated. Its sweet, funny, and entertaining. So glad you watched this, Cassie!
When Peter Jackson started making this he knew the CGI needed for the ghost was going to be important, so he sunk a lot of time and effort into building the group to do it, that group is now known as Weta Digital and have done work on everything, "The Lord of the Rings" to the "Marvel" movies and considered to be one of the best groups in the business. Also, this movie is criminally underrated. It's a great mix of thrills and laughs.
Also, Jeffrey Combs plays crazy SO well 😂❤
"I guess that makes you... number one!" Jake Busey at his creepiest! He's fantasticly deranged as Johnny Bartlett.
My wife and I went to a horror convention a couple years ago and had the good fortune to meet the "weird FBI guy" Jeffrey Combs. He autographed my VHS copy of The Frighteners. He's really kind.
At this time Michael J. Fox was already suffering from the early stages of Parkinson's Disease. He was diagnosed 5 years before this movie came out, and had to hide it from everyone until 2000. In hindsight you can definitely see some twitches in Fox's performance.
Fun fact; Robert Zemeckis (Back To The Future tiology, Forrest Gump and Castaway) just to name a few of his movies, was meant to direct this movie. However, he passed it over to Peter Jackson and helped produce and organize funding for it instead. Good to have nice friends!
No one seems to mention there is a very young Melanie Lynskey in this movie, playing a small role of a police officer. She of course had already worked with Peter in Heavenly Creatures. 😊
