    Teddie Blake The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.
    Myron Clemons A film of deceptively outspoken contemporary relevance, this is cinema at its most alert, alarming and alive.
    Ava-Grace Willis Story: It's very simple but honestly that is fine.
    Stephanie There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes
    Seth_Rogue_One Just gonna start by saying that even though the series is called HAUNTED HIGHWAY most episodes is not about hauntings but of various monsters and creeps and folkloresI throughly enjoyed the first 2 episodes, it was a breath of fresh air and Jack Osbourne is always likableBUT by episode 3 it gets painfully obvious that they are faking stuff and setting things up to happen by natural causes; such as putting a ball on the edge of a box 2 feet up in the air and it getting moved claiming it was a ghost that did it when it's clearly windy outside (even though the host tries to re-assure you that it's wind-still) and stuff of that natureThey also seemingly ALWAYS get some sort of activity from seemingly the monsters they are hunting, which is peculiar in itself as none of these monsters have been caught on film you'd imagine if they are always out and about causing ruckus But of course, as we all know monsters are rather camera shy, so very often something (seemingly the monster) will knock down the camera (from behind of course to avoid being filmed) Maybe they are just magnets for the supernatural though? While GHOST ADVENTURES can go a a full hour and not get a single EVP response these guys basically just hit record and get a response instantlyAnd when they walk into a new town the first person they just happen to run into is a eyewitness to the monster they are looking for and very often they are credible people in town sometimes a police officer and one time a mayorThere are 2 teams of paranormal investigators on this show and they usually have one monster each they go after; JACK OSBOURNE and DANA WORKMAN is one and usually provides the most entertainment, the other team consist of DEVIN MARBLE and JAEL DE PARDO.Now JAEL DE PARDO is seemingly the most experienced monster hunter appearing in similar shows like DESTINATIION TRUTH and FACT OR FICTION but nothing she says comes out as believable, maybe she just got tired of playing the same character for so long on other shows, who knows, either way she is a terrible actress and yes it's rather obvious to anyone that she is indeed actingOne thing that they do that is rather original is that instead of boasting everything as proof of the paranormal they often use reversed psychology on their viewers, downplaying some of "the best evidence" that they capture saying that could be a technical issue with the camera or whatever so that the viewer will sit and think that 'no way is that a technical issue, that's the monster!'.But they do it too often to fool anyone, that's like the reversed cry wolf theory.And if they were gonna fake it and make it so obvious, why not go all out and have a tall guy run around in a Bigfoot costume and give the hosts a proper spook; maybe have it kidnap one of them or something. Or they could have you know, actually properly investigated the monsters, I wouldn't have mind if they didn't find anything in any of the episodes (which they wouldn't have most likely) at least then they wouldn't have tried to con their viewers.There is however some entertainment value in the show, and like I said I enjoyed the first 2 eps thoroughly so I give it a 4.
    margohulseillu I am quite obsessed with the paranormal and found myself running out of ghost shows to watch, so I decided to give this show a try. I have seen every episode out of the two short seasons and have found myself displeased with many things about it. First off, these people are relatively pampered and live cushy lives. Even though Jael has roughed it in Destination Truth is some very inhospitable environments, it seems that none of these people have ever taken the time to familiarize themselves with the sights and sounds of nature. I highly doubt they would ever willingly put themselves out in the wilderness for any other reason than their show. I could be wrong, but when they were unable to tell the difference between an elk print and something that is canine, it screamed 'We're total novices'. I feel like if you're trying to legitimately (and I use this term loosely, as this is reality TV we're talking about) investigate into something like the Shunka Warakin or the Ozark Howler, you should at least familiarize yourself with animal tracking before just blindly assuming every print is mysterious and/or a print from what you're looking for. In fact this can be said about a lot of their investigations, a lot of the noises they're hearing are the sounds of the surrounding fauna. For example in the Louisiana Swamp Woman episode, they were freaking out over 'screams' they were hearing; Those were owls and possibly even frogs. Another thing that I've noticed is that they'll capture something really compelling on camera and in the end during their 'evidence review' (another thing I'm referring to loosely here) , literally never mention it or ever bring any attention to it ever again. For example in the last episode of season 2 during the investigation into the Black Angel, Devin catches not once, but twice some floating orb thing that disappears into the trees. At the end of the investigation they only talk about the heat signature on the angel (possibly caused by the sun, because, you know metal can retain heat and the sun hadn't set too long before) and some weak 'EVP' that they caught. However, when I say this as an artist myself, its questionable if the things they don't talk about in the end were not faked in the first place, some of these things they show you look pretty manufactured.Overall they aren't reinventing the wheel here when it comes to 'no camera crew' style investigation. Ghost Adventures has been doing that since 2008, and though its not spectacular, you can tell that they also edit it themselves as well by their aesthetic choices.It is sad to see this show go however just for the sheer fact that it is pretty funny to watch rich people scare themselves silly in the middle of nowhere and call it 'investigating'.
    simplymefire In the scene where the rocking chair starts rocking, you can see the string that is pulling it. This show is completely hysterical in the fact that the actors are so dramatic. It is not surprising that this show is being canceled. With all the technology today and all the experts in special effects I'm sure there are plenty of ways to make a rocking chair move without strings or ropes being attached. And, Oh My Goodness, a ball falling off a log, what a scary thing to happen. I almost fell out of bed laughing. I have watched many of these so called paranormal shows and Haunted Highway is probably the worst yet. Instead of being scared of ghosts I am now scared of the people that are trying to prove that they actually exist.
    kralnor warlockrox Nice show. Love the overall style. Somehow jack and crew managed to make an original looking and styled paranormal investigation show. Plus, I would tune in weekly to watch jael depardo read the phone book.I have to admit I wasn't expecting much. I mean, how can here be another one of these damn shows?? I'm glad to report this show comes off nothing like the others of its ilk. Very little forced humor, very few (maybe none?) Distracting post- production sound effects, which I appreciate greatly after every episode of ghost hunters now opens with a failed evp it seems.Definitely recommended add to your ghost hunters/ destination truth /fact or faked line up.
