Ghost Light

Ghost Light manages to be a fun and genuine celebration of Shakespeare without being Shakespeare.

Whether you're an avid theatre-goer, an actor, or someone who enjoys dark comedies, there will be something enjoyable in Ghost Light.

This is certainly not your typical horror flick. Though it has some supernatural stuff going on there are plenty of quirky laughs to be found as well.

Ghost Light is a heady concoction of whimsy and dread.

Roger Bart has this movie on his acting shoulders and it just becomes to much for him to handle.

Too talky and tedious...it becomes a feeble and forgettable flick.

Quirky rather than hilarious and nowhere near as scary or gruesome as the play, this affectionate if overlong love letter to summer-stock theatre from director John Stimpson may be too light on laughs and carnage for some.

The lively finale delivers a satisfying twist that honors both theater tradition and haunted tale.

A quirky supernatural comedy, John Stimpson's Ghost Light pokes a lot of fun at the world of theatre and all its ticks and eccentricities.

Ghost Light suffers from an underdeveloped script and obviously small budget. What makes it worthwhile is its insight into characters, who against the odds build up real sympathy.
