October 19th: Thirten Ghosts (2001, borrowed DVD from friend)

Everything about this film, including a young Shannon Elizabeth and Tony Shaloub, screams 90's film.  I guess a film released in 2001 would technically be a 90's film.  This was put on the list at the behest of the same friend who will voraciously claim that 28 Days Later is not a zombie film.

Like several 90's films, biracial families are depicted.  ut the way they are depicted is still strangely racist.  A family made up of Tony Shaloud, Shannon Elizabeth, a genius child and a stereotypical black woman inherit a house that murdered several people in the opening scene.

An electrical worker decides that the innerworkings of the house is the reason that several homes in the area are out of power, low and behold: A GHOST!  A Many ghost!  Oh Christ!  I don't know what to say!

I actually fell asleep long before this one was over and I don't think I'll be going back to watch it anytime soon.  I think I'll save this one for a rainy day.
