    I thought this was brilliant. The ghostly effects looked ace and such an off the wall idea. Mint!

    Very good - a little 'booshy' in points, but "...not enough, if anything, the banana..." resulted in a full facelaouff, as the Germans call it. Good luck.

    Great film. I liked the ghost trying to dry hump the kitchen drawers, and a great cameo from Grant!

    Lovely stuff. Who's the dude with the beard? I think he's due at least a BAFTA. I truly believed his performance and felt his confusion. A Marcel-esque masterclass in mime (yes, you can use that quote on the posters).

    Someone said "piss funny?" Does that mean it was really funny or piss poor? I'm getting old... Personally I didn't laugh but I still liked the film.

    apart from the good effects of the ghosts i didn't see the point in it. story was a bit flat, but it was well shot and well made.

    That was seriously spine-chilling. I had all cack in my pants by the end.

    I was even worse than that time I soiled myself during Ghost Busters II. Top stuff,gents.

    I really dislike it when people use the term "lol", but I genuinely laughed out loud at this one. Really good! There's stacks of talent in this competition. Reckon the judges are going to have a hard time. Have a look at our entry, "Mr. Alice", and let us know what you think!

    Loved the film. Especially the effects and the enigmatic cameo by the true legend of cinema - Captain Whitten. Laughed out loud at the end too, last line was a classic.

    I am so pleased that Mr Whitten has found a positive outlet for his energy. Maybe now he will avoid jail.

    You just made me laff out loud in an internet cafe! Like the effects. Actors really down to earth. Would´ve liked a bit more of a pay off at the end, but apart from that really entertaining.

    Look up "vitreous"

    July 25, 2008
    Report this comment
  • TheThe

    Vitreous refers to a material in an amorphous, glassy state (in contrast to a crystalline state)

    An amorphous solid is a solid in which there is no long-range order of the positions of the atoms. For instance, common window glass is an amorphous ceramic

    Glass is transparent

    A long way around but the idea is there

    Thanks
