Well, its the bicentennial celebration for a wee, little dot on the map called Ludlow. During this celebration the slippery mayor (C. Dave Davis) reveals a piano that was given to the town. Problem number one is the piano sounds a lot like a synthesizer and problem number two the piano is possessed by some spirits who wants to bring vengeance for past wrong doings.
Now, this movie actually has better acting than what I was expecting it to have. Just don't expect Peter Cushing to show up or something. I didn't recognize any of the actors and likely they didn't enjoy great long careers in acting. I have noticed from reviews I have read on here that they did not like the acting. To me it wasn't a big detractor. Likely, because there were some bigger problems going on with this movie. Like it being pretty slow-moving, along with some bad and dark lighting it ain't worth your time searching for this low-budget slop. If you are into ghost stories about haunted towns maybe you should check out John Carpenter's THE FOG as while I am not a fan of that movie it works much better and generally it is a well thought of early 80s horror flick. This movie pretty much takes a lot from the Carpenter film.
