Review of Ghost Son (2007) by Mt W — 24 Oct 2008
This movie was really dumb. It would be categorized as a horror flick, but wasn't really scary at all. Basically, a a couple is deeply, madly in love, then the husband dies in a car crash, and the woman decides to stay on living on their farm in South Africa.
And then, while mourning, the woman says that she can't live without her husband, then so he comes back to haunt her--and get her pregnant. The movie is so dumb, and there are some really disturbing parts, like how the husband's spirit possesses the baby and then some erotic scenes ensue, between the wife and her baby.
.. eew. Really dumb incongruous movie. There are so many loose ends, and the premise didn't sell. One other weird thing is that the husband/ghost was played by John Hannah of The Mummy Trilogy fame.
I always imagined him as the bumbling Jonathan character from the Mummy movies and seeing him in several full-on nude love scenes was WEIRD.
