Original, and hugely entertaining

Rating: 8/10 (7 November 2013)

Sam and Molly are young, in love, and covered in clay, so Molly is understandably miffed when Sam is killed. It turns out that Sam is equally miffed, because his spirit is still hanging around, aware that Molly is in danger, but physically unable to do anything about it. Until, at least, he discovers that he can enter the body of Oda Mae, a fake psychic (at least she thought she was fake), through whom he can try to put things right.
Ghost is essentially a suspense thriller with strong supernatural and romance elements, and a dash of humour. It is unusual in that all the disparate elements work, and the whole thing holds together. This is partly because it is quite original, well written and directed, but also because it is very well played by Patrick Swayze, Demi Moore and Whoopi Goldberg.
If you haven't seen it, you really should.
