Olsen & Johnson's FUNNIEST film !, 5 June 2000
10/10
Author: Norm Vogel (norm3vog@blast.net) from S. Bound Brook, NJ.

This film is to O & J what "Hold That Ghost" is to Abbott & Costello -- by far, their FUNNIEST film!

A Southern Colonel and his two daughters move into a "haunted house" in NYC...O & J (who own the night club next door) help them "despook" the place!

NOTE: Someone has written me about this film -- I HAVE IT in my collection of over 800 films! If you would like a copy, pls EMAIL me, using the addr next to my name: create a "regular" email; DON'T click on the addy. I might not get it!!!!

"Last the Best of All the Game!" Norm
