"Must See" Horror Film #36

The Frighteners (1996)
The Frighteners tells the story of Frank Bannister (Fox), an architect who develops psychic abilities allowing him to see, hear, and communicate with ghosts. After losing his wife, he uses his new abilities by cheating money out of customers for his "ghosthunting" business. This one is rated R however it is not "scary". It actually has a lot of comedy involved. Directed by Peter Jackson and co-written with his wife, Fran Walsh. Excellent visual effects & music by Danny Elfman make this a must see.

  1. While it's a tiny bit campy; I really enjoyed this movie. I think I enjoy when they throw humor into a story like this while keeping it paranormal.
