Spirit Lost

Not really a horror story as much as a supernatural romantic drama. If you're looking for jumps scares then this film ain't what you want. It's a steady pace succubus story.

Also the scene where the wife catches him in bed with the ghost is pretty, well, interesting.

"Spirit Lost" (1997) mixes romance and horror with uneven results. A seductive ghost torments a man and his wife, but the erotic tension fizzles. The African-American cast and island setting offer a fresh take, but the plot plods and the scares are weak. Watch for chills if you enjoy a slow-burn supernatural story, but others may find it a dull possession with missed potential. VHS rental style movie, slow, boring. I wouldn't bother. Pick something else. We nearly turned it off after 5 minutes, so we gave it another 20 the gave up. Loads of things don't add up with ghost. It's got a sense of time. Is steals a locket from the natural and this object somehow can go through walls with the ghost.

I bought the DVD a few years ago and finally got around to watching it one night and it was 90 minutes of pure torture....acting was mediocre,I'm really into ghost stories but this one just did not work....special effects were really lame....right from the start I knew I was in for a long night..it seemed like 3 hours watching this as every scene just dragged by...there were several scenes where they would just show the lead actors sitting on the porch for 6-7 minutes not saying anything...really,really,not interesting at all....watch another movie at all costs..i give this 1 star out of 10...very brutal to sit through.

First time watching this film. Something about reading the introduction intrigue me. I like the leading roles were black americans. I wish they would of said more about the ghost arabella and her man. I know it was only a movie. But,I felt sorry for the arabella. I did like the house. Other than that. It was a good movie. Maybe a part 2??

This was a nice little ghost story to past the time. It was about a Carribean ghost who was spurned by her lover and wanted to take over the life of the current family who lived in her house. You don't see too many ghost stories with leading black characters, I think most directors should focus on this aspect.
