Avis à la une
I just finished watching this & I really enjoyed it. It was just what I needed & expected. Don't try to make this movie into anything....just kick back & enjoy the story.
It could've been a bit darker & sexier, but as it is, I dig it....recommend= yup
It's not often that I see a film like this. I love it that the play took on a life of its own, especially with Macbeth and all the associated mythology. This was a lot of fun to watch.
This was a lucky find. I saw it at the Folger Shakespeare Library in DC. I'll definitely watch it again. The plot is tight and surprising and very dark. The cast is superb and clearly in tune with one and other. The film will have a wide appeal, but especially for folks who know the Scottish Play.
We were grateful to have caught this flick at the Woodstock Film Festival. It was showing at noon in a small town about 45 minutes from us. But the plot sounded intriguing, and the movie did not disappoint. Great ensemble cast (indeed, the movie ended up winning a special award at the festival for ensemble cast) and , just the right use of special effects for a dark comedy that sought to spook you a little bit. This is a gem of a small-budget movie.
Movie gets 8 stars for being an original concept alone. But the execution lives up to those 8 stars, as well.
Bare bones outline is in the synop. But they give us some "stock" characters working in summer stock, yet those characters take some very interesting turns.
Great acting by most every one, including the female lead and Cary Elwes, who has to act like a bad actor.
Funny, surprising, and yes, as noted, achieves a very creepy (and strangely satisfying) vibe at the end. Well worth your time.

- AnecdotesAccording to director John Stimson, "The idea for Ghost Light came from my years in the theatre and particularly the Hasty Pudding at Harvard. I get such a kick out of the ridiculous but very seriously regarded superstitions that actors believe in. It called out for a comedic approach, but there are necessarily horrific moments. We're dealing with the tragedy of Macbeth after all!"
- Gaffes(around the 42-minute mark) As Liz is seducing Thomas out in the field, the position of her hair changes between shots. Sometimes parts of it are down in front of her face, and sometimes it's all combed off to the side.
