The film was still a fun one that will make you laugh and have you leaving the theater feeling like you just stole something valuable and got away with it.

I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.

The movie is wonderful and true, an act of love in all its contradictions and complexity

While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.

Ghost Fever is one of the greatest "awesomely bad" movies of all time. If you go into watching this movie thinking, "This should be good", prepare to be fantastically disappointed. I remember watching this movie as a kid on HBO. Nothing entertained as much as the "invisible man" dancing in the Grand Ballroom. Sherman Hemsley is definitely the stand-out in the movie. I love his sarcasm and frank humor. The only thing I don't like about the movie is the main antagonist (Beauregard Lee) turning into a vampire at the end. They could have left it out and it would have been a perfectly bad movie. It gets an absolute ten from me, for it's humor and nostalgia.

I remember my mother renting me this movie when I was just a tyke.I haven't seen it since I was around kindergarten aged I guess, but the movie made a lasting impression. I remember a big antebellum mansion, and the slave torture device that made Sherman Helmsly walk funny,I loved it. I have to have had my mother rent me this movie a dozen times or more. This is one of those rare low budget movies that make scrounging threw the discount bin worth it. Now that I know the title I am going to have to go searching for the DVD. I loved ghost stories and this was right up my alley. I had been looking for the title of this movie for ages. IMDb is just great!

Sometimes a film can be so bad, it's totally enjoyable. God bless the abstraction of a director, Alan Smithee. The real director of the film "Ghost Fever", Lee Madden was too ashamed to take credit for this disasterpiece. It is a celebration in all that is bad in movies, but when it was on rotation in 1999, I couldn't take my pre-teen eyes off of it! There was an appealing creepiness about how truly awful the movie is. I've been waiting for it to air since, but I haven't been able to experience the wonder of a film so bad I ponder how it was ever produced. Sherman Helmsley keeps his head up through it all. You have to respect a man that gives it all in a film he must have known was a complete mess. His comedic performance is nothing new, but he is a good guide through a tangled web of a story that becomes completely lost in horrible direction. Look for the Mummy scene. It is a genuinely disturbing image that was supposed to be played for laughs. My question is, why didn't this movie have a cult following? Am I the only person on Earth who loves this messy treat?

This movie is só incredibly unfunny it makes any man want to cry, the cliché are put on thicker than 5-year old peanut butter and in such a way that it actually sucks humour out of your heart, every single joke was badly timed and wouldn't have been funny if it were timed correctly.Don't see this movie, there's a real chance you'll never be able to enjoy going to comedies again...ever.
