Patrick Swayze, Demi Moore, Whoopi Goldberg, Tony Goldwyn - Dir:Jerry Zucker A murdered man has a final chance, as a ghost, to discover his murderer and say goodbye to his wife with the help of a phony pyschic. Shortly after moving into a ... Full Descriptionnew Manhattan apartment, a pair of lovers are separated by a street thug's bullet. Communicating through a frazzled false medium, the man's ghost tries to avenge his death and protect his girlfriend. Academy Award Nominations: 4, including Best Picture, Best Original Score. Academy Awards: 2, including Best (Original) Screenplay, Best Supporting Actress--Whoopi Goldberg.After renovating their expensive loft in the TriBeCa section of Manhattan, Molly (Demi Moore) and Sam (Patrick Swayze), a young successful yuppie couple, are walking home one evening when Sam is tragically gunned down by a street mugger. Molly goes into a deep depression, but, unknown to her, Sam has come back as a ghost in order to protect her from danger--although he isn't yet aware who or what means her harm, and he has a lot of learning to do in order to make himself known to her. He teams up with an unwilling psychic, Oda Mae Brown (Whoopi Goldberg), and together they try to convince a very skeptical Molly that Sam was actually murdered and has returned spectrally to complete some unfinished business. Moore and Swayze and are excellent as the couple, and Goldberg won an Oscar for her portrayal of the wild and wacky psychic. GHOST is considered by many to be one of the most romantic films of the 1990s. Theatrical release: July 13, 1990.

| | Ozzy Osbourne Ozzmosis CD (1995) Remastered
Ghost movie DVD
 $9.25 
Let us all be thankful that Ozzy's retirement didn't stick. It supposedly lasted for three days, after which he got bored and started working on this project. Heavy, riff-intensive tunes, progressive song structures and a little psychedelia give OZZMOSIS a definite Sabbath flavor. Ozzy must have been in touch with whatever inspired early classics like PARANOID and MASTERS OF REALITY. Witness the extremely chunky "Thunder Underground," which can stand up next to "Sweet Leaf" and "Symptom Of The Universe" as an archetype of hard rock. The trippy guitar in "Ghost Behind My Eyes" and "Denial" are not some young Ozzy-wannabe going for a retro sound--this man was there, "Planet Caravan"ing.
Still, this heavy metal daddy in touch with his roots is also hip to the genre's latest sound. OZZMOSIS has a live, up-front feeling, thanks to producer Michael Beinhorn (Red Hot Chili Peppers, Soundgarden). Zakk Wylde's huge, raw guitar also plays a major role. He provides scorching solos, lush textures and juicy fills with a muscular tone and minimal effects--the perfect complements to Osbourne's songwriting.
But more important than the raging guitars and the big sound is attitude. Ozzy's spunk has indeed rejected retirement. His songs still spew biting commentary at whoever will listen. "Your bulls**t culture licking can't stop the deathwatch ticking/You're only mortal after all," he warns on "Thunder Underground." Ozzy himself may not be immortal, but OZZMOSIS sounds like it is.
All tracks have been digitally remastered.

| | Ozzy Osbourne Ozzman Cometh CD (1997)
Ghost video
$9.39 
THE OZZMAN COMETH is a single CD collection of hits, previously unavailable recordings and one new track. Previously included a limited edition second disc containing 2 of the 4 previously unavailable recordings as well as an interview with Ozzy Osbourne.
As if we needed another reason to believe that Ozzy Osbourne is God, along comes THE OZZMAN COMETH, a double CD retrospective of one of the most enduring and influential figures in heavy metal. Consisting mostly of his post-Black Sabbath solo work as well as a live version of "Paranoid," this collection's biggest asset is the so-called "basement tapes," never-before-heard rehearsal tapes of four classic Sabbath songs. Dating back to 1970, "Black Sabbath" and "War Pigs" are the songs that transformed a petty thief from Birmingham, England into the godfather of heavy metal.
But if Sabbath cemented his place in the rock 'n' roll canon, his solo work raised him to legendary status. Working with former Quiet Riot guitarist Randy Rhoads, Osbourne set the tone for the 80's metal revival with songs like "Crazy Train" and "Mr. Crowley." Capping off the collection is a seventeen minute interview with Ozzy from 1988, where he speaks frankly about the ups and downs in his career (parents be forewarned: this is not for the faint of heart). Ozzy has made it through all the pitfalls of a life in rock and roll and has come out on the other side redeemed and renewed.
Recorded between 1970 & 1995.

Ghost Movie Review Average Rating: (4 out of 5 stars)   Fast Delivery, VHS Quality
First, loved the delivery time and email notification. It took just 2 days regular mail. The DVD I purchased has a VHS view, just a tiny bit grainy. The DVD view is not as crisp as I'm used to seeing, but for the price it's pretty good. I'll definetly order more DVDs from CD Universe in the future.

Fast moving plot. A gem for Whoopi G.
Really got this for my granddaughter. We have watched it over and over. Never tire of it.

Was This Review Helpful? Yes No Not a Scary Movie
This is not a scary movie but a kind of romantic adventure involving the ghost of the deceased husband( Swayze ). The storyline is predictable and the screen writer tried to make the movie interesting by infusing some humor, mostly surrounding the psychic( Goldberg ). Reasonable performances from the cast but Goldberg stole the limelight.

Was This Review Helpful? Yes No I cry every time~!
This is a GREAT love story- and there's something for everyone: murder mystery, action, a little comedy and a lot of romance. I cry at the end of the movie every time I watch it not just because it is a sad, yet gratifying ending but also because it makes you more aware of the things and people we take for granted in our daily lives. Excellent flick, definitely one of my favorites of all time!
