Anton Bitel Little White Lies While ghosts are traditionally raised by a spiritualist at séance, here television itself is, in more than one sense, the medium for Pipes’ conjuring. Oct 31, 2022 Full Review Chris Stuckmann ChrisStuckmann.com The reason this movie works so well is because of the committed performances from everyone in the movie. Rated: A Oct 23, 2019 Full Review Jorge Loser Espinof Despite the implausibility and wackiness of its last stretch, 'Ghostwatch' confuses, shocks and horrifies... [Full review in Spanish] Rated: 4.5/5 May 24, 2024 Full Review Eddie Harrison film-authority.com …a weird harbinger of the found footage era, and a challenging, edgy television show, the likes of which will never be allowed on the air again… Rated: 4/5 Oct 31, 2022 Full Review Kat Hughes THN The broadcast that terrified a generation, Ghostwatch still retains its ability to unnerve. Rated: 4/5 Oct 22, 2022 Full Review Glenn Dunks Glenn Dunks Perhaps it was ahead of its time, but one of the most successfully convincing hoaxes since Orson Welles's War of the Worlds should probably boast a greater legacy.

Leo P This one was fun! I love these news style found footage movies (a few in a similar fashion such as late night w the devil and WNUF) but this one is probably my favourite of the bunch! Very much recommended Rated 4 out of 5 stars 03/25/25 Full Review Orlando C Excellent erotica thriller. There was a guy named Pipes, an honest to goodness glory hole and the whole thing was hosted by Victoria Paris! Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/27/25 Full Review thy a at face value probably a 4 star but given its history and how it aired i easily have to give it a 5, probably one of the greatest pranks of all time Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/29/25 Full Review S G 10/10, This was so well done and real looking at the time, the first time I watched this I was a kid, it really scared me at the time, well made. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/03/25 Full Review Audience Member Very entertaining. Creepy found footage style horror movie. Very well done. Ahead of its time. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 10/27/24 Full Review Dallas H Ghostwatch is the television equivalent of Orson Welles's 1938 radio broadcast for "War of the Worlds". I got a kick out of watching this movie. In retrospect, it's glaringly obvious to be a premise concept, but the production pulls it together and sells it very well. And I find it to be a bit ironic and intriguing how about ten years later we witness the start of the television trend of ghost-hunting television programs infiltrating across basic cable networks. If you haven't watched this movie yet, I highly recommend watching it with headphones on because listening to the audio in a distraction-free environment enhances the viewing experience. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 09/27/24 Full Review Read all reviews
