Quirky Peter Jackson film that's half comedy and half horror/gore-fest. Mostly enjoyable results, although Fox a bit miscast.

Despite being awful in almost every respect, The Frighteners does offer one small pleasure: R. Lee Ermey parodying his Full Metal Jacket drill sergeant character.

The actors can't keep the film's mood from verging on hysteria as the story roams all over the map. "The Frighteners" has flitted everywhere, even to heaven and hell, before it's over.

Woulda been five stars, but the cop-out ending smacks of the test-screening process.

Fortunately director Jackson, at home with all kinds of excess, keeps everything spinning nicely, not even losing a step when the mood turns increasingly disturbing.

Violent, frenzied, foul-mouthed ghost comedy.

Story was originally conceived as an episode of "Tales From the Crypt," and that is perhaps what it should have remained, as the thinness of the conceit shows throughout, painfully so in the first half.

It actually works up till its last few minutes.

An object lesson in what to avoid when making the transition from low-budget films to studio productions.

An incredibly underrated scare-comedy from Peter Jackson that deserves a much wider audience.
January 26, 2006
At times the relentless special effects and tangled plotting veer towards visual and narrative overkill, but the final tonal swerve is shocking and effective.
USA Today

A mess with sporadic flashes of creativity.
