Loved this movie

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.

An original idea, funny yet achieves a creepy vibe

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.

Unexpected....

So I'm home looking for something scary and I come across this little movie I've never heard of. Is it scary, is it a comedy, at first it's hard to tell. Looks like a Hallmark movie at the start! But I have to say I was pleasantly surprised! It's so unexpected. It's so cute with a touch of creepy, and just a great story. I didn't look at reviews until it ended and I'm happy to see most agree with me!

Entertaining

Maybe I have no life. But I really liked this movie. This is a great forget about life and laugh a little movie. It has comedy, mystery and a feel good atmosphere. And I love movies with beautiful scenery. Worth the watch.

Great Cast..so-so movie.

With the likes of Tom Riley, Cary Elwes, Carol Kane, Roger Bart & countless others, I thought I was in for a treat. And although it has some funny moments and a few "scares", its neither hilariously funny nor scary creepy. Maybe if you're a big fan of the Theater, Shakespeare and Shakespearean superstition you might appreciate it more, but I found it only mildly entertaining at best.

According 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!"

Blooper
(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.
