I really hate to do this to this short film, but the problem is that Ghost Haunt has a SERIOUS problem with it that can’t be overlooked.  More on that in a minute.

Basically, this short is all about a guy named Dorje who gets scared by a dragon mask early on in the film, and his buddies make fun of him for it.  Dorje, who wants to prove his manhood, announces that he has Gurkha blood (which is actually a pretty big deal in the subcontinent) and will prove his badass blood by any means necessary.  Thus, he’s dispatched to a haunted park to hammer a nail and record the evidence on his camera.   What he finds in the park, however, is definitely not what he sees coming.

Ghost Haunt is actually pretty fair, if a bit–okay, a LOT–derivative of other movies just like it, but the problem is that whoever ran this movie has not clue one of how to shoot at night.  Thus, we’re left with long black stretches of footage in which all you can see is a flashlight bobbing around.

I love that this is actual, honest to goodness foreign film, but for crying out loud, I want to be able to SEE it.

Thus, due to massive technical errors, Ghost Haunt can only scare up a three out of ten on the Screenhead Ten Scale.
