Editorial Review:
Amazon.com
Remember watching this silly little comedy from your childhood? It may not have aged all that well, but is still goofy, good fun. Okay, so you can spot the stunt double, and Don Knotts's twitches are a little more obvious. Still, fans of his familiar routines will be comforted in knowing they can again watch their skinny underdog hero solve the ghost story while winning the prettiest girl in town. Knotts plays a trembling typesetter hoping to become a reporter by cracking the mystery of the local haunted house. To do so, he must spend a night there. Good-hearted, non-threatening, and completely gooey, this is the equivalent of light-weight cinematic junk food. -- Rochelle O'Gorman

5 out of 5 stars The Ghost and Mr. Chicken.......2007-05-22

I consider The Ghost and Mr. Chicken to be one of the funniest movies ever made. It is Don Knotts at his best.

5 out of 5 stars Good Ole Humor.......2007-05-17

If you like good ole humor, than these dvds are for you. I remember watching Don Knotts as a kid growing up in the 70's. It refreshing to sit back and watch good and clean humor. Don Knotts and Tim Conway movies are classics.

5 out of 5 stars The Ghost and Mr Chicken.......2007-05-14

You will be very happy with yourself for purchasing this DVD, I know I have been. Watching these movies brought back so many childhood memories. my brothers,sisters and I watched the ghost and mr chicken every time it was on TV. Now that I own this DVD I can watch it whenever I like. It's a GREAT DVD!!!!!!

5 out of 5 stars An Era sadly gone..........2007-04-22

But you can relive it (a much more innocent time) in this set of DVD's. Oh, yeah these would seem hoplessly HOKEY to a modern viewer and to those of us old enough to have seen these when they first come out..but let's just say there a gulity pleasure and leave it at that. A must for any fan of Don.

5 out of 5 stars Great movies!.......2007-04-09

Don Knotts is the best and these are a great deal and excellent quality. We have enjoyed them very much!!

4 out of 5 stars the ghost and mr.chicken.......2007-05-19

THE GHOST AND MR. CHICKEN
A TRUE COMEDY, STARING: DON KNOTTS
UNIVERSAL PICTUES RELEACED IN 1965

It's so scary you'll laugh yourself silly. The ghost of Mr. Chicken is a true comedy. Everything Don Knotts' [staring as Mr. Chicken or Luther Heggs] does is hilarious. This movie is hard to find. You can rent it at your local blockbuster or other movie rental place. You can also try to purchase it off the Internet. This is a family film. The movie is not rated, but I would say it would be rated G. It doesn't have any foul language or violence in this movie. Even though it was made in 1965 it does have color.

My family and I were watching the movie and we were cracking up the whole way through. Everyone that has watched it thought it was hilarious. The movie is a 4 ½ star rating. I don't think this movie is for little kids. The reason is, is that it doesn't have any bright color and they won't pay much attention. I would say it would be for ages ten and up.

The movie is about a guy named Luther Heggs who works with a newspaper and tries to write an article about anything he can find. But, everything that he wants to write about the other people think it's crazy and stupid. Then the next day or so later the other workers told him that he could go to the murder house and write about what happens in there.

Will Luther go into the murder house? If he does, will he make it out?




5 out of 5 stars Barney Fife comes to the big screen.......2007-03-30

Don Knotts was a smart man. He knew his abilities as an actor. He took his famous Barney Fife character to the big screen. In this movie he was known as Luther Hages (at-a-boy Luthers) This is basically a movie version of the Andy Griffith show only without Andy, Opie, or Aunt Bea. Otis is in there, along with Clara Edwards and a bunch of other character actors seen from the show. Also, the second Darrin Stevens (Bewitched) is there as his boss. This is a fun movie. Typical storyline where a little man who gets no respect does everything to impress the prettiest girl in town (and she was). And he becomes the hero and gets the girl at the end. I can watch this movie over and over. It's from a simplier time and is ageless, just like its TV equivlent. You just can't help wanting Barney(or Luther) to win everytime.

5 out of 5 stars Old movies only get better when you watch them later........2007-03-25

No one beats Don Knotts acting like a nervous nelly. His movies are classics, especially this one.

1 out of 5 stars too expensive.......2006-10-14

yes, waaaay too expensive
when you think that the same film is included in a multiple set that only costs $13
