A real disappointment - Just say 'bye bye' to this film when you're looking for something to see (just pass it up - not worth the trouble) -- The title character looks like a kid dressed up in a Halloween costume - The other characters are just plain dumb -- Absolutely NOTHING to recommend about it - Please, just skip over it - There are so many other good things to watch

Very good movie! Only detriment: too long at 94 minutes! (I very easily cut out over 40 minutes so that my busy family would be able to watch it, and stay interested in it - They didn't notice anything cut out in my 58-minute version!) Otherwise, very good; great ending! Most will never see it coming

Beautiful collection of the 13 episodes produced by Hammer in 1980
Likeable actor Anton Yelchin --'Odd Thomas' - another **** sci-fi flick-- returns in this comedy about a guy and his high-maintenance girlfriend. She dies as he's about to break up with her, but she returns to haunt him because they inadvertently made a 'forever' love pact in the presence of an evil genie talisman. I love all the references to spooky old movies, plus Anton Yelchin works at a Halloween shop where he's required to tell the customers to 'go to hell', and his NEW love interest works at an ice cream shop where all the menu items have spooky Halloween-ish names! Great fun! I've had a high-maintenance girlfriend like the one that dies/rises in this flick, and seeing her here again was the REAL horror! haha

Not a horror film, but plays out pretty well! Interesting conclusion! It's basically a good roommate battling things out with an inconsiderate ho of a roommate! Things DO get kind of HORRIFIC near the end, though! Worth checking out!
Again the cover looks more promising than the film

Again the cover looks more promising than the film, but it has some spooky moments, even if the characters speak with a heavy British accent, and there is NO closed captioning or subtitles to understand all of the dialogue, but other than that, it's an ok film, I guess.... Way too long though!!!
