Ghost Light manages to be a fun and genuine celebration of Shakespeare without being Shakespeare.

This is certainly not your typical horror flick. Though it has some supernatural stuff going on there are plenty of quirky laughs to be found as well.

Rated: 3.5/5

Ghost Light is a heady concoction of whimsy and dread.

Roger Bart has this movie on his acting shoulders and it just becomes to much for him to handle.

Rated: 4/10

Too talky and tedious...it becomes a feeble and forgettable flick.

Sweet film about ordinary people dealing with extraordinary circumstances. Wonderful cast whose down-to-earth acting forgives any improbability in the plot. Loved it. Recommend skipping the trailer. As is often the case, it gives away the whole story. (was meant for the 2024 Ghostlight, not this one. Ugh)

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

A movie with a big heart and characters you care about. Something you don’t see much of these days. I love its theme of how life can reflect art and heal. Theatre 🎭 people will love this film.
