Arthur Lubin’s Hold That Ghost brings Bud Abbott and Lou Costello back to their best after a less impressive previous outing with In the Navy. The story involves two not-so-skilled gas station employees who unexpectedly inherit money from a gangster, leading them to a spooky house filled with mysterious people and all sorts of unsettling events while they search for a secret supply of cash. It’s definitely one of their stronger films; the jokes come quickly and feel original, and the comedic routines are still entertaining. The supporting cast also contributes positively to the overall experience, and musical interludes featuring the Andrews Sisters offer some respite from the chaos. Everything about it seems well put together, just remember to pay attention to those candles! It earns a solid 8/10.
