Scripted by Agent Coulson himself, Clark Gregg, the film was produced during the production hiatus of Cast Away so it has plenty of bumps and feels rushed at times. Nevertheless it still manages to pack in plenty of twists & turns and harmless yet effective thrills & chills. Zemeckis makes use of some fantastic Hitchcock-esque camera tricks while Alan Silvestri's string-heavy music feels like a modern Bernard Herrmann score. Michelle Pfeiffer does a wonderful job as the leading lady but Harrison Ford seems horribly out of place. It's heavily flawed and no where near up to par with Zemeckis' usual fare but still a great little ghost story.
