EPISODE 26 - The Frighteners (1996) - Halloween Special #3 - 31-10-22

Happy Halloween!  'Tis the night of ghouls, ghosts, witches, goblins and pumpkins and what better way to celebrate it than to stay inside, lock the doors, hide your candy (because it's MINE!) and listen to us chat about The Frighteners? 

Peter Jackson's 1996 breakout flick sees Michael J. Fox as Frank Bannister, a con man who sets up hauntings so that he can exorcise houses.  The twist?  He can actually see ghosts and he sends his deceased pals Cyrus and Stuart to throw things around.  When a hooded grim reaper figure starts killing off the townsfolk, Frank's on the case!

We recommend this movie heartily, it's a good 'un.

We open our episode with a discussion about bad language, so it's allowed.  Rated E for Educational.  

Come for our discussion on the movie, stay for a round of "Answer Me Quickly", some slightly outdated Movie News, Trivia Corner and whatever Si's calling his VFX segment nowadays.

Also, if you’re looking for quality Michael J. Fox impressions…probably best to look elsewhere…

Ready?  Let's have an episode.
