Ghost of a Chance is an interesting TV movie from '87 that blends comedy with some supernatural elements, though it doesn't take itself too seriously. The premise revolves around a cop who accidentally ends a musician's life, which is a heavy theme, but the execution is light-hearted enough. The ghostly return of the musician adds a nice twist, as he tries to guide his grandson away from the pitfalls of drugs and toward a music career. The performances, particularly from the ghostly musician, bring a quirky charm, while the pacing balances the comedic moments with the more serious undertones quite well. The practical effects for the ghost are pretty charming, fitting the late '80s vibe, and the overall atmosphere feels cozy and nostalgic, perfect for collectors of TV films from this era.
