It's no definitive masterpiece but it's damn close.

Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.

Better than average for this genre. Highly entertaining. Not a found footage movie. This one actually has a plot. The acting is actually good, minus the female lead role who appears to be cracking up more than scared. Looks like they had a much higher budget. The background music actually gets annoying. There are a few moments where you jump a bit because they do give y an unexpected jolt, so there was a plus. Toward the end, the plot becomes a bit ridiculous and you start to think there is no way THAT possibly happened and it doesn't make a whole lot of sense if you try and figure it out, but nobody watches this type of movie because it is supposed to be REALISTIC and make sense. Very funny. All in all, I would recommend it, especially if you are a fan of the paranormal or a fan of mocking paranormal shows. Nice twist at the end.

AMERICA'S MOST HAUNTED is a fun spoof of the whole 'paranormal TV show' genre of reality filmmaking so popular in America. It's an overworked genre and this indie is too cheap to really impress, but it's better than I was expecting regardless. The story is about a crew called in to a creepy old location by the caretaker, played by a cameoing James Karen. Karen is a fine actor of his day (check him out in POLTERGEIST and RETURN OF THE LIVING DEAD) so it was a pleasure to see him cast here and he really is the best thing in the movie. The rest of the actors are quite unappealing and the humour isn't really all that funny, but it could be worse.

What a pleasant surprise this little film was. A nice, well acted horror/comedy even with one or two good (if mild) jumpy/spooky moments. The acting is of a good quality well carried off by the cast. After some of the incredible nonsense I've seen of late, this came as a real breath of fresh air. Most of all I'd say it is a clever, subtle parody of the many nonsensical 'Ghost Hunters'type shows which infest the airwaves yet prove nothing. The over all premise is that of a crew of vain, arrogant paranormal TV researchers who are shameless fakers and disbelievers who find themselves in a really haunted location with no idea how to deal with their situation. A fine piece of work from all involved.

Ii never fails - movies that I purchase for download from Amazon turn out to be utter garbage which I cannot delete from my system quick enough (Skyline being the latest).Along comes America's Most Haunted, and I decide to be prudent, so I rent the movie instead of purchase. And after watching it, I will also purchase it, for this is a movie that I can see watching every so often.First of all, this is NOT a horror movie - it's a horror comedy, along the lines of Ghostbusters, although by no means as high-budgeted or with such famous actors.Still, I found America's Most Haunted to be extremely entertaining, with characters I actually cared about, and although the plot was simple, it still kept my attention throughout.The production was outstanding! The film looked great, the sound was clear, the music added the right mood, and the special effects were perfect given the subject matter.Another pleasant surprise was how restrained the language was (something all too rare now-a-days).I highly recommend this film if you're looking for light entertainment and have a desire to feel good when the movie is finished!
