GHOST SQUAD

Cinemavixion Review

Joel Souza's "Ghost Squad" (2015) offers a charming, albeit familiar, adventure centered on a trio of outcast friends who form "The Elite Monster Unit." Will Spencer, Cade Sutton, and Phillip Wampler star as Charlie, Alex, and Nick, whose penchant for chasing mythical legends sets them apart from their peers. The narrative takes a turn on Halloween night when Charlie's attempt to impress Brandy leads him and his friends into a haunted house dare, pitting them against a mischievous ghost dog named Salty. While the film leans into the tropes of childhood camaraderie and spooky encounters, it provides a lighthearted escapade that may appeal to younger audiences seeking a blend of fantasy and mild thrills. Despite a nomination, the film garnered a modest 4.6 rating on IMDb, suggesting it's a pleasant diversion rather than a cinematic landmark.
