The crew of a popular ghost hunting show gets more than they bargained for when they come across a location that's actually haunted.

Perfect cast and a good story
I am only giving this movie a 1 for the great cast, though I can't imagine what any of them were thinking. This movie was horrible
This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.
Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.
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.
In the beginning, I thought it might be interesting but, as it progressed, it just got more tedious. How many times did they have to see the ghost & chase it? And why didn't all of his victims show up, too? I didn't find much humor in it (Hey...Someone died!), & the entire movie could have been 30 min. long! James Karen was the only recognizable actor in it & the rest just weren't up to par. For instance, the lady that played the medium was so bad an actor it took me right out of the story. As for the "surprise ending", I could think of a lot of better ones off the top of my head. This movie could have been a lot better if they had either made it ALL comedy or ALL horror. This way, it's just ALL lousy. Sorry!
