Ghost Story - 1982 - 6/10

A gentlemen’s secret, suppressed for fifty years, seems to have awoken.
The old men, once vital, now frail, realize a supernatural predator has returned.
This is late night, cozy horror, already out of step with the times.
Casting is impeccable, with three Hollywood icons (Fairbanks, Astaire, Douglas) in final performances.
Eroticism and violence are tightly reined, so much you can probably watch this uncut on TV nowadays.
During its initial run, and after Dawn Of The Dead and Alien, this just came across as quaint.
