Even the fun is frightening!
What more can be said for this film? “The Ghost and Mr. Chicken” is as much a nostalgic picture of small town life (as is “The Music Man”) as it is a family horror-mystery. The cast, led by Knotts is terrific, the production full of charm, and the musical score by the estimable Vic Mizzy, perfect. Despite the low budget, it looks like every penny got on the screen, and the film was a hit, so much so that it led to other Knotts vehicles such as “The Reluctant Astronaut” and “The Shakiest Gun in the West”. They were enjoyable as well, but nothing tops this one! It was available as a widescreen DVD a couple of years ago, but it’s no longer in print. It is now available as part of a set called “The Don Knotts Reluctant Hero” package. It’s well worth getting while it still can be gotten! The original theatrical trailer is included, and the enhanced print is beautiful. And remember: “He saw those things!”.
