Product Description:
Steven Spielberg produced this live-action feature starring the friendly ghost created in 1940 by Joe Orolio. In it, greedy heiress Carrigan Crittenden inherits the haunted Whipstaff Manor and discovers that the house contains a treasure, which is closely guarded by three nasty ghosts. She invites ghost therapist Dr. James Harvey, and his daughter Kat, to move into the eerie mansion and get rid of the supernatural creatures. The nephew of the three spirits is Casper, a friendly ghost who becomes Kat's pal. Casper takes Kat to his father's secret lab where he once attempted to bring Casper back to life with a special machine. Carrigan eavesdrops on their conversation and decides to become a ghost herself, in the hope that she will get the booty more easily. Then she can use the machine to change back to a human. However, Carrigan doesn't realize that you can't flirt with the afterlife.

This 1995 family film tries to put a fun spin on the story of a paranormalist and widower (Bill Pullman) who moves into a new house with his daughter (Christina Ricci) and meets up with the ghost of a dead little boy. Based on the comic book about Casper the friendly ghost, the film is a dreary series of awkward interactions between live actors and computer effects, and you can almost see Pullman and Ricci reconsidering the project while on camera. A few cameo appearances from uncredited stars help things a bit. But there's no way, based on this film, that one could have guessed that its director, Brad Silberling, would go on to make the exceptional drama City of Angels. --Tom Keogh

I had forgotten just how good this movie was. My grand daughter saw my old VHS tape box, so up dated to DVD and all three of my grand daughters love it. I must be getting old, I like it too.

First off, I want to say that this is an outstanding family film. Bill Pullman and Christina Ricci make an impressive duo as father and daughter, while the effects are especially realistic and outstanding. But . . . couldn't they have given Eric Idle a better purpose for this film? I mean, he's from MONTY PYTHON! At least give him some catchy wordplay! Here, in this movie, he isn't given much, but he should have been given a whole lot. He could have had a hysterical conversation with the ghostly ... Read More

Of all the Casper movies, this one is definitely my favorite. Live action was the next step for Casper, and they definitely nailed it. The story is not only cute, but moving. I love it!
