1981's Ghost Story : One Ghost I Wouldn't Mind Being Haunted by

Four successful elderly gentlemen, members of the Chowder Society, share a gruesome, 50-year old secret. When one of Edward Wanderley's twin sons dies in a bizarre accident, the group begins to see a pattern of frightening events developing.

I can't believe that so many people criticize this film. It appears that most dissenters are comparing it to the book which seems unfair because I found this a great ghost story movie. I haven't read it yet so this is an unbiased review of what I've seen. 

I first saw this movie when I was a kid and, back then, it terrified me. I just couldn't then and can't now ever forget the cold, clammy images of the ghost girl in a dark wedding gown walking slowly toward the man, David Wanderley, alone in the decrepit, abandoned mansion with a broken leg. Terrifying! Upon this viewing, I found it just slightly less scary but it's still effective, in my opinion.

The story felt less complex upon this viewing but still engaging and intriguing. It's basically a ghost out for revenge against the four men who accidentally caused her death decades before. While I loved the basic premise, there are a bit of unanswered questions and/or plot holes. Like how is the ghost taking a tangible corporeal form? Why did she wait fifty years to seek revenge? Why is she going after the two sons of one of the old men? If you can just accept these without worrying about questions such as these, you will probably enjoy is movie a lot more. It did not bother me too much because I was too gone up what I actually did see.
