blanche-2 "Ghost Cat" or "Mrs. Asboro's Cat" is a family film from 2004 starring a young Ellen Page, Michael Ontkean who at 58 here still looks like he did on The Rookies, Lori Haller, and Shirley Knight as Mrs. Ashboro.The story concerns an elderly woman (Knight) and her cat Margaret, both of whom pass away. Mrs. Ashboro had her house up for sale, at her nephew's prodding, which is when Wes Merritt and his daughter Natalie (Ontkean-Page) look at the house. Then she changes her mind. Margaret the cat shows up to help Natalie, her dad, and the animal shelter owner (Haller) from time to time, especially as people are trying to destroy the animal shelter in order to get the property. It looked to me as if the producers used an older cat for Margaret, which makes sense.This was cute. Not everything has to be bloodshed or special effects. Every once in a while, a story about a ghost cat is all you need.
Matt (QMD333) This is a really cool movie! I enjoyed it immensely, and watch it every time it is on TV.This movie, "Ghost Cat", deserves to be on DVD!It's the ultimate Halloween movie for the whole family.If you are an animal lover, "Ghost Cat" will be one of your favorite movies.Maybe if we all contact Animal Planet, or the Studio that made the movie, and ask them to put this movie on DVD, they will.Ghost Cat has a special charm to it, that is sorely lacking in many movies.It is a very special movie.Let's put it on DVD!
darkspider Upon stumbling across this feature TV film on my local cable movies channel. I was pleasantly surprised as me and my nephew sat down and enjoyed it from beginning to end.A heroic girl moves into the house of her deceased mothers' librarian, of course this comes out later in the film.A very enjoyable film and being British we didn't know the difference of where it is filmed, actually it didn't matter. It had reminisces of a typical TV program Goosebumps.A fun family film, tongue in cheek not meant to be taken seriously.Thumbs up from me, even the soundtrack was well suited.As kids films go I rate this 6/10
msoucie A simple little movie involving a cat that dies and then becomes a ghost ... our ghostly cat heroically saves the day when the evil villains try to destroy an animal shelter ... this movie is easy, mindless entertainment for all ages.
