Ghosts That Still Walk

This is a weird movie about an archaeologist studying the culture of the ancient Hohokam Indians. She takes a (really fake looking) mummy out of a burial cave and brings it home to study it. Well, pretty soon she starts acting weird and talking to this mummy. And shortly thereafter her son becomes possessed by the spirit of the mummy. Even stranger events take place as the spirit then tries to destroy the woman's family. This is actually REALLY BORING, overall, and it will make you fall asleep the first couple of times you try to watch it. But if you keep at it, you may just make it to the end.

Ahah! What is the secret of the mummy? Is the mummy's spirit angry that it has been removed from the cave? You may not be able to ascertain what the spirit's motivation is, but if you like spooky shenanigans on a low-budget (and 70's hairstyles!) this will have a certain comforting appeal.

The way I have described the story is much clearer than the jumbled, boring way the film lays the story out. Can a boring movie really be fascinating? Well...somehow this one achieves that. Maybe this is a good movie at heart but executed in a rather awkward way. I don't know. What I do know is that I enjoyed it quite a bit, despite its dullness.

Fans of "Spider Baby" will be interested to know that a couple of music cues from that film are used in this one (including an instrumental version of the theme song).

Featuring one frightening and fairly well-done sequence showing possessed boulders and rocks rolling around by themselves and eventually attacking some people in a camper. Other scenes in the movie are merely spooky or quirky; but this one scene is actually pretty scary.

See this! It's weird and it's worth your time. You might even want one on your shelf.

Ghosts That Still Walk is one of those films that grabs you and doesn't let go until the end, especially when you see it as a child. Seeing the film as an adult, you have to admit it isn't really all that scary, but the story is very fascinating and contains allot of great mysterious scenes (especially the ones with the creepy mummy)

One of the best scenes in the movie is without a doubt the scene with grandpa and grandma in their new RV; the scene with the rocks is very exciting and pretty scary. Also the scenes where the main character discovers his mother's secret is pretty frightening.

Okay, the acting in the film isn't all that great and the film sometimes seems to get a little bit boring, but overall Ghosts That Still Walk is fun. Too bad only a few people saw this film, this film really deserves better. I just wanna say: Mr. Flocker, you've done a good job! And for all you Hollywood producers out there; If you want to remake a movie, remake this one!

James T. Flocker's unfairly derided, entertainingly creaky creepshow is a benign, family friendly 1970s spooky-kooky fright flick that all too rarely get mentioned without pronounced sarcasm, so I'm giving it some belated, but wholly deserved B-Movie love, screw the naysayers! While the plot is looser than the evil-eyed Mummy's shroud, it has an appealing, weirdly off-center atmosphere, lending Flocker's desert-set yarn about a lad's possession by malign medicine man some additional paranormal pep! One doesn't need ESP to divine that these genteel supernatural shenanigans are manifestly not suitable for all terror-seeking tastes. In an increasingly ageist era where one all too rarely see octogenarians portrayed as proactive protagonists, the refreshingly senior cast of 'Ghosts That Still Walk' provides a welcome tonic against the teenage hegemony of contemporary Jump-scare horror. I've always admired Anne 'Airplane' Nelson, who remains as charmingly watchable as ever, with handsome Matt Boston delivering an equally credible performance!

When I rented this movie I thought I was going to see a horror-movie. However, there is little horror in this typical seventies mystery-drama directed by strange James T. Flocker. Nice-looking Matt Boston carries the picture with his fine performance and the typical strange atmosphere of Flocker's movies is all-present.

"Ghosts That Still Walk" is the tale of a fifteen year old boy Mark possessed by the vengeful spirit of a Indian medicine man and illustrates various related paranormal phenomena connected to an ancient curse including the most memorable bit of rolling and flying desert stones.There is also a haunted cavern and an invisible force,which takes control of the elderly couple's RV."Ghosts That Still Walk" looks cheap and is full of dull sequences.But the rolling stones are a total hoot and the acting is decent.The plot does make a little sense,but if you are into bizarre cinema check this low-budget oddity out.7 rolling stones out of 10.
