A head-first plunge into nostalgia -- nostalgia for times past (1962), for the American small town (somewhere called Willowpoint Falls), and especially for the sorts of ghost stories that were told prior to Poltergeist (without, that is, gobs and gobs of special effects and a whole menagerie of monsters). The pacing is not such as to convince you that the genre is still alive. But a few elemental images and minor frissons are enough to keep you wishing. With Lukas Haas, Alex Rocco, and Len Cariou; directed, written, produced, and scored by Frank LaLoggia. (1988) — Duncan Shepherd
