Entertainment Reviews:
Rating: 4/5 --
The classic Hollywood stars lend distinction to this rather tepid spook show.
Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC)
...On the credit side is the opportunity to see [Astaire, Douglas, Fairbanks and Houseman] playing four old New England codgers...

creepy but muddled
Shadows on the Wall
Rating: 2.5/4 --
An OK film adaptation whose primary point of interest is its collection of superlative seniors in the leading roles.

The end result is confusing and lacks dramatic force. [Full Review in Spanish]

Rating: 2.5/5 --
Impressive cast can't advance the flick's snail pace.

Rating: 3.5/5 --
A film driven by atmosphere and a quiet sense of foreboding dread, Ghost Story is the hauntingly provocative adaptation of Peter Straub's novel that may be a tonal mess, but still has this weirdly hypnotic power to it after all these years.

Daily Dead
Product Description:
Four elderly men who gather once a week to thrill each other with tales of terror find one of their scariest stories coming to life, as a woman they mistakenly left for dead fifty years earlier returns to life to gain revenge. Featuring stellar talent, including Fred Astaire, Melvyn Douglas, Douglas Fairbanks, Jr., and John Houseman as the main characters, this superior, chilling horror film takes its story from a novel by Peter Straub.
