Casper is a friendly sort, but his three spectral uncles are a real bunch of assholes. A widowed father and his daughter move into the palatial residence to investigate the haunting, where they befriend the eponymous ghost while fending with some unwelcome guests. It's a family film with some strangely serious thematic elements, but mostly hampered by shoddy mid-90s CGI.

I watched it for the first time a couple of years ago, but can't remember a thing about it. I didn't even remember it was Ricci until I saw your labels. That tells me I either didn't enjoy much or my memory is getting is worse. Or both.
I saw it earlier this month as part of its 30th anniversary. It seems to have a dedicated fanbase from those who grew up watching it, but I agree, it’s not very memorable at all. All I recall is that Casper had a hard-on for Wednesday Addams. And Ray Stantz makes the briefest of appearances.
