Now do ya believe in Ghosts?

Rating: 8/10 (8 June 2005)

I first saw this film when I was about 11 and loved every single aspect of it. To me, it was just what a film should be - heartbreaking, funny, spooky and thought provoking. Patrick Swayzee lead a great cast into what was about the best film of 1990, with the oh-so-memorable 'clay scene' it couldn't fail to be a very, very good film. Swayzee play Sam Wheat a very much in love man, who's life is tragically cut short by his nasty friend Carl (Tony Goldwyn). Too scared to 'step into the light' Sam stays on earth and soon befriends crooked Oda Mae (Whoopie Goldburg) who suddenly finds out her talents for talking to the dead are actually for real. Sam spends much of the film trying to contact distraught girlfriend Molly, who he's left behind and believe me, the ending calls for a very big box of Kleenex!
