This movie starts out OK, but then just fails to really do anything. I purchased the movie at the local Wal-Mart because I used to live just 27 miles north of Goldfield in the town of Tonopah, NV. I hope that this isn't considered a spoiler, but ALL of the interior flamings of the hotel in this film were not filmed at the Goldfield Hotel, but up the road in Tonopah at the now defunct, Mizpah Hotel. I know!!!!! I used to work at the Mizpah Hotel and it all looked very familiar to me.
The acting is barely mediocre in this film. Two pretty girls, one cute guy, and one hunk, along with Roddy Piper couldn't make this film shine. Five college students go to Goldfield, NV to study ghosts the closed Goldfield Hotel and spend the night there. I can tell anyone now that would never happen because Esmerelda County would never let anyone spend the night there. I don't believe that the hotel has actually had guests since the late 40's or early 50's. It may have opened up in the 70's for a short while, but I would have to check my facts.
Don't waste your money going out and buying this DVD. Wait for it on Sci-FI or a horror channel some long snowy afternoon.
Movie Grade-D+
