This is a debut novel by this particular author and, to be honest, not one that I would have chosen to read myself but was lucky enough to have been sent an advance copy from the publisher, Legend Times Group, in return for an honest review and I am really pleased they did as I really enjoyed it.

This movie was Drew Barrymore's directorial debut, and she did a really good job. The small, po-dunk town was portrayed honestly and well. The roller derby action was shot so well, and it happened to take place in my home town, so I'm partial.
Ellen Page was great as the main character, she was pitch perfect. This is also only one of two movies I can stand Kristen Wiig in, which is really saying something.
  
Emma Whitecastle discovers she can see ghosts when her great-great grandmother appears to her demanding that Emma solve her century old murder. This was a fun debut that suffered just slightly from a weak ending. Keeping in mind I'm not normally a supernatural mystery guy, I am looking forward to the next one.

Madeline Bean is catering the Hollywood party this Halloween. But things take a bad turn when the host, producer Bruno Huntley, dies in the middle of the festival. This debut features great characters and lots of fun twists to the plot and started what is still a top notch series. I just wish there were more than seven books.

Before I watched this film, I read through the little booklet that accompanied the Criterion Collection edition, and it made me feel like I'd done nothing with my life because I was the same age as GDT when he made the film.
I thought it was good for a debut film. It did take a while to get going, but I still enjoyed it. It does look low budget, but wasn't enough to distract me.
