The Frighteners Ratings & Reviews
- Zokkiie2 april 2026This movie is a total hidden gem—funny, a little creepy, and full of that weird charm that lingers. The visuals are inventive, the pacing never drags, and the humor lands just right. Definitely one of those films that’s way more memorable than most give it credit for. It’s a cult classic for a reason, and honestly, highly underrated—once you watch it, it sticks with you in the best way.
- matvil84 april 2025Cool, another good Michael J. Fox movie. A mix of soft horror and comedy all into one great movie. You can see who the bad guys are and they get theirs in the end. Loving it...
- GBWest1 november 2025The Frighteners is a fun comedy, action, horror. Michael J Fox brings the energy. Yes, he is a charlatan, taking advantage of his ability to communicate with the dead. However, when he comes across something odd he tries to donthe right thing, even when it causes more trouble for himself. This movie was supposed to be a Tales From The Crypt movie and took on a life of its own. That much is obvious when the story gets rolling. You'll laugh and cheer for the hero to save the day.
- Scott and Sharon5 februari 2026All I can say is that Jeffery Combs is what makes this film so good. Always an amazingly quirky performance.
- Jean Laforest25 januari 2026This was an interesting take on your typical ghost haunting movie. It seems like this was a crossover between Ghostbusters and the Six Sense. This movie also had a very interesting take on special effects, which were quite effective at that time.
- ryan.49022 mars 2025Eh... kind of all over the place but enjoyable zaniness nonetheless.
