Come Haunt with Me

About This Movie

Come Haunt with Me really straddles this odd line between comedy and horror, which keeps you guessing. The pacing takes its time, almost leisurely, as it sets up the quirky dynamic between the two scholars and the supernatural entities they encounter. It’s got this strange, almost campy vibe, with musical numbers that feel both jarring and fun amidst the ghostly shenanigans. The practical effects aren’t groundbreaking, but there’s a charm to them that adds to the overall atmosphere. The performances, especially from the leads, come off as earnest yet playful, which somehow amplifies the absurdity of their predicament. It’s definitely a unique watch for those curious about genre blends and offbeat narratives.

This film doesn’t come up often in collector discussions, which might stem from its somewhat obscure release and the mystery surrounding its director. Formats like VHS and DVD can be found, but good quality prints are a bit rarer. There’s a niche interest for those who appreciate oddball films from the 70s that mix genres, and it’s definitely a conversation starter among collectors who enjoy the unique flair of its supernatural humor.
