Product description

From Academy Award-winning director Peter Jackson (King Kong, The Lord of the Rings) comes this wicked comedy-thriller. Michael J. Fox stars as Frank Bannister, a small-town "ghostbuster" in league with the very spirits he's supposed to be exorcising. The scam works well until a powerful spirit goes on a murderous rampage, forcing Frank to find a way to stop the diabolical ghoul in this special-effects-packed supernatural chiller that's so fiendishly entertaining, it's frightening!

    This is not horror or horrible, maybe a bit gruesome,and not really right for a realist.
    Despite having had hesitant expectations, I can not decide on anything not to like about this movie.
    It is just fearsome fun fantasy.
    The frightening to funny ratio factor undoubtedly varies inversely with the age, and outlook, of the viewer, but there is much of both for everyone.
    The effects fit the film without appearing outdated.
    It was, to me, surprising to find that, although the star actor is Michael J. Fox, the movie was filmed in New Zealand.
    That was until I also discovered the director was Peter Jackson.
    They did well together, as did the rest of the cast and crew.

    5.0 out of 5 stars eine schaurig sch?ne, unglaubliche unterhaltsame und lustige Horror-Kom?die!
    Reviewed in Germany on January 4, 2015
    Verified Purchase
    The Frighteners wollte ich nur einmal sehen, da es ein Frhwerk von Herr der Ringe-Regisseur Peter Jackson ist. Ich war deswegen auch sehr glcklich, dass der Film wirklich gut ist.

    Frank Bannister ist Geisterj?ger. Wenn Geister in einer Wohnung herumspuken, ruft man ihn und l?sst sie einfangen. Keiner wei? aber, dass er ein Abkommen mit diesen Geistern hat. Eines Tages taucht aber pl?tzlich ein mordender Geist auf, den nun einzufangen gilt. Dies erweist sich aber als ?usserst schwierig und gef?hrlich.

    Auf The Frighteners bin ich schon vor einiger Zeit gesto?en, hatte aber irgendwie nie wirklich Lust ihn zu sehen, da ich vermutete, dass er zu sehr ein Horror-Film sein wrde und ich kein Fan solcher Filme bin. Letztendlich ist dies aber eine Kom?die mit Horror-Elementen, eine Horror-Kom?die.
    Als erstes fielen mir die Charaktere auf, die Peter Jackson hier schon zusammen mit seiner Frau Fran Walsh geschaffen hat. Michael J. Fox (Zurck in die Zukunft-Trilogie) in seiner letzten gro?en Rolle als abgehalfteter Geisterj?ger, der pl?tzlich einen echten Geist fangen muss, ist wirklich eine Freude. Er spielt diesen Charakter wirklich gut und sehr sehr sympathisch und erinnerte mich ?fters an seinen Marty McFly-Charakter. Gr??tes Highlight fr mich war aber Jeffrey Combs (Re-Animator) als v?llig verrckter Bundesagent mit so vielen Macken, dass man gar nicht wei?, wo man anfangen soll. Er sorgt mit einigen bizarren Momenten fr die Highlights im Film und liefert hier wirklich eine denkwrdige Performance. Aber auch Jake Busey (Starship Troopers) in seiner kleinen Rolle und Elizabeth Hawthorne (Underworld C Aufstieg der Lykaner) als exzentrische Chefin einer Zeitung setzen ihre Akzente und machen den Film sehr unterhaltsam.
    Dies liegt vor allem an der Art, wie sie geschrieben und gespielt werden. Die Charaktere sind oft berzeichnet, was bei diesem Film absolut Sinn macht, wirken aber nie fehl am Platz, sondern machen den Film erst zu dem, was er ist. Die Charaktere haben einige Super Dialoge und lassen nie Langeweile aufkommen.
    Langeweile kann auch gar nicht aufkommen, da Peter Jackson sich hier schon auf seine fantastische Inszenierung verlassen konnte.
    Er baut gekonnt einige Szenen in den Film mit ein, die man als Ode an etwaige Horrorklassiker verstehen kann. Diese Szenen sind zwar aufgrund der Art des Films weder gruselig noch erschreckend, passen aber sehr gut. Auch die Szenen mit den Geistern haben etwas gruselig schauriges, ohne dabei den Zuschauer irgendwie verst?ren zu wollen. Es passieren absolut wahnwitzige Dinge mit den Geistern, die aber eher spa?ig sind, als abgefahren verdreht. Noch dazu sehen die Geister auch noch sehr gut aus. Hier waren schon Richard Taylor und sein WETA-Team, mit denen Jackson dann auch Der Herr der Ringe und Der Hobbit gestaltete, fr die Effekte verantwortlich, die auch heute noch absolut sehenswert sind. Das Design ist wirklich gut und die reine technische Leistung dahinter ist auch immer noch bemerkenswert.
    Bemerkenswert finde ich auch den Humor. Jackson beweist hier, dass er einen wirklich gro?artigen Sinn fr Humor hat, was man in jeder Szene sieht. Seien es die Dialoge oder die Geschehnisse an sich, alles hat einen lockeren Ton ohne dabei zu l?cherlich zu sein. Jackson schaffte es hier wirklich sehr gut, humorvoll zu sein ohne dabei ber das Ziel hinauszuschie?en. Er will hier keine Parodie auf Horror-Filme zeigen, sondern eben eine originelle Kom?die mit Horror-Elementen. Und dies gelingt ihm wirklich sehr sehr gut. Ich war die ganze Zeit, von der ersten bis zur allerletzten Sekunde, wirklich sehr gut unterhalten und konnte gar nicht genug von dieser Welt kriegen.

    Kleiner Hinweis: bitte mal darauf achten, Peter Jackson hat einen kleinen Cameo-Auftritt, den man nicht nur im Extended Cut sieht.

    Fazit:
    The Frighteners ist eine schaurig sch?ne, unglaublich unterhaltsame Horror-Kom?die mit sehr starken Bildern.
    Die Charaktere sind allesamt sehr unterhaltsam, genauso wie die Geschehnisse an sich. Peter Jackson erz?hlt hier eine unterhaltsame Geschichte mit einigen verst?renden, aber sehr lustigen Bildern.
    Dies ist eine der besten Kom?dien, die seit Langem gesehen habe. Fr mich ein frhes Meisterstck des neuseel?ndischen Regisseurs.
