•A fraudulent medium seems particularly skilled in the extermination of houses inhabited by ghosts. When strange and sudden deaths occur in his town, he is the first suspect, but the young man is not involved; in fact, he will save the situation by discovering that behind the deaths is the evil spirit of a serial killer, who continues to kill in an attempt to go down in history as the most "prolific" of serial killers. Thanks to the medium's intervention, the entity will be eliminated. One of the few films - if not the only one - that manages to switch from one genre to another, from comedy to pure horror, without being confusing and without ever losing the narrative thread of the story. Starring Hollywood's former golden boy Michael J. Fox, produced by none other than Robert Zemeckis, the film is directed by one of the most brilliant and original directors of recent years, Peter Jackson ("Bad Taste", "BrainDead"). Everything works wonderfully, laughter, fun, suspense, and some sequences worthy of the best horrors. Having gone practically unnoticed in theaters, it is absolutely worth rediscovering.
