The movie is about a budding architect started to see ghosts. Abandoning his dream house, he beings a new career of convincing ghosts to haunt a house then "exorcising" them for a small fee. Then a grim new ghost appears on the scene and the bodies start piling up, each with a ghostly number on their foreheads. This movie is funny and the CGI was pretty good at the time in the 90's.

It's tonally inconsistent and the story goes off in too many directions, but there is some good comedy and effects.

There is a good movie in here that gets over-burdened with special effects and a messy plot. With a tighter script, this could have a macabre, Tim Burton-esque comedy/horror. Some clever and funny bits, but overall, not great.

A decent, if unremarkable horror/comedy from Peter Jackson years before hobbits were on his mind. It works in parts, but overall it's uneven and meandering. If it had more focus, it would have been better.
