Geraldine The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

Platypuschow Ghosting within the first quarter of an hour had my attention, I was fascinated and I thought maybe just maybe this independent little mystery title could be something special.It tells the story of a young man whose mothers mental health has driven her into an asylum and he fears he might be going the same way. He keeps seeing the same mysterious man in various photos but nobody else can!The premise is great, the investigation and character development is solid and it all looks great enroute to the highly dissapointing finale. Sadly it just doesn't build to a decent payoff, in fact it barely has any kind of payoff at all. This is yet another movie where a writer had a good idea but simply couldn't deliver an ending worthy of it.Despite the finale the movie isn't entirely terrible, it's just like reading a Tolkein book where the final page was written by a 3yr old.The Good:Great conceptVery well madeThe Bad:The photo "Revelation" is beyond stupidFinale kills the whole filmThings I Learnt From This Movie:When looking for a missing friend the first place you should check is a sealed up cardboard box

Leofwine_draca GHOSTING is a very low budgeted indie drama about a guy struggling with his background and the familial abuse that ensued during it. He's now suffering psychological problems and must solve a personal mystery before it's too late. There are a lot of scene changes here and a semi-professional look, which means that this is slightly more interesting than your usual indie bore.

Kira Hamman Ghosting is a delight, simultaneously satisfying horror fans and pleasantly surprising skeptics of the genre. It leavens horror with mystery, romance, and humor, then adds plenty of jump-in-your-seat moments to keep things moving. From the very beginning you'll find yourself trying to see beyond the screen. Who's doing that? Why? What's really going on?It's only later that you'll think about the fact that all this was embedded in beautiful cinematography, highlighting the various plot points without hammering on them. The light on the stream in the opening scene. The oddly ominous diner. The farmhouse that should be inviting but decidedly isn't. The photography is a perfect fit for the plot and the action, drawing you in and keeping you there.But my favorite thing about the film is the relationships: Matt's fraught but loving relationship with his mother, the easy familiarity of Lindsay's parents. Most of all I love Matt's friendship with Charlie. True friendship between a man and a woman is not often represented in film, and its presence here is both appreciated and refreshing.Ghosting strikes the perfect balance between creepy and fun, and is beautiful to look at in the bargain.
