This movie's weird; most of the time it's corny on purpose, but then sometimes it tries to be kind of badass. The vibe is sort of "1950s sitcom family meets Poltergeist"; nobody actually dies and it's all completely pussified, but it's definitely creepier than, say, Leave It to Beaver. The ghost effects are basically your old-school see-through kind; some of them are okay, but a couple are pretty stupid (what's with the lion?). The big gimmick is that the family has a pair of "ghost glasses" they use to see the ghosts (which means this dumb movie is probably supposed to be in 3-D), but no one took into account the fact that that's pretty stupid. Also, why does the main ghost literally sound like a retard ("Uhhhhhhhhh, uh, uhhh...")? I half expected him to start flailing his arms around and screaming for pudding. The daughter is cute, but I've seen hardcore Muslim chicks show more skin, so she doesn't bring much to the proceedings either. Why did they remake this again?
