Ghosts and Angels in Hollywood Films: Plots, Critiques, Casts and Credits for 264 Theatrical and Made-For-Television Releases

By James Robert Parish

Since the early 1900s, movies dealing with ghosts and angels have been a recurring subject for Hollywood's studios. These otherworldly characters are not bound by the same conventions as mere mortals, and thus often give moviemakers a vehicle to tie up loose ends, proselytize on good and evil, or showcase special effects.This reference work provides a comprehensive filmography of ghosts and angels in American movies through 1991. Each entry includes full cast and credits, production information, contemporary reviews, and an essay blending a summary of the film and critical commentary. Fully indexed.
