The second week of Spooktober is upon us, and this week it's another horror-comedy classic. The Frighteners, a little film that may have laid the foundation for a little-known filmmaker named Peter Jackson's Lord of the Rings trilogy, delights and chills with a compelling (and final) lead performance from Michael J Fox, another incredible turn from Jeffrey Combs, and produced by Robert Zemeckis himself. It's an October treat that leads to some fun discussion of how mixing genres is a risk, but when it works the payoff is nothing short of...frightening.
