    A good time pass

    Horror with comedy is a great but delicate subject, if you miss the point you might end up making fun into a dull and boredom show. This one gave some respect to both the genres be it horror with good jump scares or comedy mixed in it. A good one time watch.

    Fun movie

    This was a fun movie. Story was alright, some funny scenes, fine acting. I thought it was a cross between the Frighteners and Ghostbusters. Definitely a movie I'd watch again.

    Well worth a watch

    Fully enjoyed this movie. A few laugh out moments and im sure a new catchphrase in the making ( made a few modifications). Be nice to see a sequal or better still TV series of Deadtectives.

    Well Balanced Horror Comedy

    I had a good time watching this. I love horror comedy, and the balance it had between the two was pretty great.

    The set up really lead to some good comedy moments, because at the beginning they are faking the ghost encounters. So they don't realise its really when things first go down, and that really works. It was fun. The characters were pretty great, and I really enjoyed the overall story.

    Awesome Horror Comedy

    I love horror comedies! Especially ones this smart and effective. Deadtectives perfectly balances jokes with scares. The characters were all extremely charming and relatable. I could have done with another female lead but that's just nitpicking. Fans of Ghostbusters and Beetlejuice NEED to watch this gem.
