The Ghost and the Guest,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Ghost and the Guest (DVD)
From the opening moments the jokes are flying in this entertaining movie. Newlyweds Webster and Jackie Frye are spending their honeymoon at an old country home. As soon as they arrive, they are confronted by the retired town's executioner who is intrigued with their chauffeur's neck. Next, they are greeted with the coffin of the previous owner, who happened to be a criminal. Not knowing what to do with their unwelcome guest, they call the police only to discover the coffin is empty. The "deceased's" next of kin show up to claim the body, or are they really there for another reason? This is a fast paced movie, it's only 56 minutes long, but is entertaining. So grab the popcorn, pepsi and dim the lights and enjoy this movie.

An hour well spent!,
By Dave - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Ghost and the Guest (DVD)
This short screwball comedy (about 55 minutes) is a surprisingly entertaining gem, despite the fact that I've never heard of any of the actors in this! The plot moves along very fast and there's plenty of fun characters, from a slightly deranged former hangman to a group of ignorant gangsters. And of course, there's the very idiotic policemen who couldn't find a clue if it bit them in the face! The married couple (James Dunn and Florence Rice) seem to be the only sane people in the group, and they have their hands full trying to have a happy honeymoon in a house filled with loonies! This is no masterpiece at all, but it's a great way to kill an hour and have a good time! The dvd picture and sound quality leaves a lot to be desired, but that's no surprise to someone who's already purchased an Alpha dvd. For this low price however, I can't really complain and I highly recommend this little gem to fans of screwball comedies.

The quality was so bad I could barely see it! Don't get this.,
By Classic movie lover "Classic Movie lover" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Ghost and the Guest (DVD)
It was hard to view because it was such poor quality. I couldn't see most scenes that were filmed as night time. It was very old and very difficult to watch. I really had to make myself 'hang in there' to finish watching. It's a donate to the library DVD now. Not worth watching and certainly not worth buying.
