A dark farcical comedy spins out of control in this deliciously brash tale from director Peter Jackson that explores the shockingly unhealthy paranormal bond between two lovers with record-breaking murder in mind. The director of BRAINDEAD and HEAVENLY CREATURES hits exactly the right balance between black comedy and jet-black chills in this cross between CASPER and THE SILENCE OF THE LAMBS. The result is a ghoulish masterpiece that showcases a dazzling array of computer-generated ghosts and blood-freezing poltergeist activity, with Michael J Fox ingeniously cast against type as a pseudo psychic up to his neck in all the nasty hereafter horror.

Once an architect, Frank Bannister now passes himself off as an exorcist of evil spirits. To bolster his facade, he claims his "special" gift is the result of a car accident that killed his wife. But what he does not count on is more people dying in the small town where he lives. As he tries to piece together the supernatural mystery of these killings, he falls in love with the wife of one of the victims and deals with a crazy FBI agent.
