Yawn. Poorly Filmed Snooze Fest.

Load of rubbish!!

hyped garbage

If you like to be scared, if you like to laugh, and if you like to learn a thing or two at the movies, this absolutely cannot be missed.

I first saw this film as a 12 year old kid, and I like it to this day. It's a simple movie, gets the needed laughs, and tries to keep the lost art of slapstick. This plenty of zingers abound in the movie, and it's pretty entertaining. The frozen bullet, the plane are damn good special effects for the time (1988). Yeah, there's plot holes, but almost every movie has those. Yeah, the story is rather implausible. But it's still entertaining. The producers knew they weren't remaking Gone with the Wind, and that's fine with me. Films about about entertainment, bottom line. And that's exactly what this one does, entertains. Now if only current film directors could learn that.

Granted in 1989 there were not too many advances in special effects and the movie was indeed low budget, but there was always the underlining humor throughout the entire movie. Numberous funny one liners were delivered by John Larroquette were done so with just the right attitude and degree of seriousness to make the line that much funnier. I disagree with everyone who says that the movie was borish and unfunny, you must look deeper into the lines delivered then just the surface humor and slapstick. This movie to this day remains one of my all time favorites. If they ever released it on DVD I would be first in line to buy a copy.

As a "B" movie, this production is quite entertaining. It was a Johnn Laroquette, Bronson Pinchot movie from the late 80's based around a psychic (Pinchot), the psychic's "handler," and the lawyer who represents them (Laroquette). They are a crime solving team who end up in some very funny situations.The effects were corny but entertaining, the story line/plot is very cohesive, and the sub-plot is intelligent and interesting; something I didn't expect from a low budget production like this.If you liked "Vibes," "Witch Hunt," or "Ghostbusters 1 and 2," you will enjoy this movie very much.Rent it, settle down on a weekend night with a bowl of popcorn and amuse your sense of humor.It gets a 6.8/10 from...the Fiend :.

Oh my goodness this is a terrible film that feels long even though it is not (83 minutes). Television stars John Larroquette ("Night Court") and Bronson Pinchot ("Perfect Strangers") prove that they cannot handle anything that lasts longer than 30 minutes. They also have trouble with a dreadful screenplay and non-existent direction. The film deals with two detectives who use a mystic to solve a crime. Do yourself a favor and avoid this one at all costs. Turkey (0 out of 5 stars).
