Suburban Gothic
An awkward, unemployed man who can talk to the dead teams up with a rebellious bartender to find the vengeful ghost that's been terrorizing their town. Raymond has a prestigious MBA, but he can't find work. He can channel the paranormal, but chatting with a cute girl mystifies him. Kicked out of his big city apartment, Raymond returns home to his overbearing mother, ex-jock father, and beer-bellied classmates. But when a vengeful ghost terrorizes the small town, the city-boy recruits Becca, a badass local bartender, to solve the mystery of the spirit threatening everyone's lives.

Some solid stuff emerges in the mix, but it's unsatisfying overall, trying too hard to look like it doesn't care.

A dry, wise-assed, and slyly appealing comedy/horror mix.

Richard Bates Jr.'s second film, Suburban Gothic, is a bit rough around the edges at times, but none of that gets in the way of the high energy and generous laughs packed into a tight and very funny 90 minutes.

Suburban Gothic is ultimately a hodgepodge of horror comedy, as too many components working against one another turn the film into something forgettable.

Richard Bates Jr.'s sophomore feature is a droll horror-comedy driven by a talented cast's riffing.

a ramshackle, tone-deaf curiosity, with just about enough funny moments to make the more meandering scenes and pointless digressions pass by - but... it is not just that Bates shows potential to improve - he has already done much better.

The movie plays quite well for a while but begins to run out of steam in its second half.

Suburban Gothic is a hipster's Poltergeist that boasts more of Richard Bates Jr.'s darkly comedic wit, but more importantly, it's a strong second feature that showcases one of the more vibrant up-and-coming horror filmmakers the genre has to offer.

"Suburban Gothic" misses the mark, but thanks largely to its cult-worthy cast, the miss can still be fun.

It won't be to everyone's taste, but for those who like it offbeat, it's well worth a look.
