After intrepid working girl Mary Carter becomes the new owner of a reputedly haunted mansion located off the Cuban coast, a stranger phones warning her to stay away from the castle.

The Ghost Breakers, being the second Hope and Goddard outing I watched today, ended up leaning more heavily on the comedy than the horror, but that didn't matter in the slightest. This is just as good entertainment as The Cat and the Canary was. The only gripe I have with it, is that it took almost the whole film to get to the haunted house. Great acting, and marvellous lighting and music made The Ghost Breakers quite the treat.

You still there zomb?

The Ghost Breakers is a sort of sequel to Paramount's 1939 hit "The Cat and the Canary", also starring Bob Hope and Paulette Goddard. Directed by George Marshall (who would direct the Dean Martin/Jerry Lewis 1958 remake, "Scared Stiff", as well) it's adapted by Walter DeLeon More
