Ghost Light (II) (2018)
9/10
If you love Shakespeare's Macbeth and have a sense of humor
8 April 2022
This is such a fun romp! Good casting, plot consistent and tight, great music scoring and selections, great use of Macbeth play and a curse upon it. This film is so witty and entertaining! Not sure what all the haters and low scores are about. It was not supposed to be some academy award winner, but the tight plot, all the story telling, and how things progress relative to Shakespeare's Macbeth is engaging. It is humorous, easy and subtle frivolity and ghostly entertainment. Some may find it slow, but they probably also don't care much for performances of the actual Shakespeare play. And for staunch Shakespeare fans, broadening the idea to appeal to an audience outside some strict formality is likely akin to blasphemy. Like Shakespeare himself wouldn't have enjoyed this as a playful diversion!
