Although it was a 96-year film, it does not look out of date at all. The story is stripped away, with frequent gags, the final tense duel, and the love naturally revealed by the protagonist and heroine. All of them make people excited during the viewing process.
The 96 film, a large number of undead shots, special effects at this level are already hard to come by. Peter MJ added a lot of fun tricks to the film, and he took his horrible path. The rhythm is still very good, but the ending part is no longer humorous. , But there is no horrible feeling. The Nazi police officer Jeffrey Combs in it is a bit like GM Carrey. The history of crying blood and tears is also relatively strong. Other details about the spirit were originally intended to be more true, think about it. Forget it, keep a little imagination, how great.
I was hesitating to watch this movie on Halloween, and suddenly found in IMDB that it was director Peter MJ’s birthday. No wonder I always shoot some gods and ghosts. It turns out that the fat brother was born on the Ghost Festival! As a result, it was immediately decided that it was "The Frighteners", and sure enough, the film did not disappoint me at all.
It is precisely because there is a lot of information to explain, the rhythm of the film is relatively fast, and the elements of humor are interspersed from time to time, and this is what Michael is good at. The three ghosts who completed the gag task with him were processed by special effects, and the old man in the cemetery who can change equipment makes people laugh alive. Although it seems that the visual effects of ghosts are somewhat "pediatric" now, you must know that the film was produced in 1996. At that time, the special effects were quite good. If you have seen those flying shots in the latest season of " Heroes (Heroes)" How false, even if you know, this kind of composite picture still needs money and technology.
