An all-new live-action feature!
| Rejoin your favorites from the box office hit and meet some new friends too! Get set for supernatural fun with Steve Guttenberg, Lori Loughlin, Rodney Dangerfield, the voices of James Earl Jones and Pauly Shore, and of course, the ghost with the most--CASPER! Casper's back, and he's on the run from Kibosh, the hair-raising king of spooks, and his scaredy-cat lackey, Snivel. Just like his haunt-school wash-out uncles, Stinkie, Stretch and Fatso, The Ghostly Trio, Casper skips spectral training and looks for a friend who can steer him in the fright direction. He soon discovers his ghostly powers are all it takes to save a town from the wrecking ball and reunite a father and son, filling them with his spirit of fun, excitement, love and everlasting friendship. A spooktacular blend of live-action and state-of-the-art animation, "Casper, A Spirited Beginning" conjures up laughs and surprises that will boost your spirits and entertain the entire family, to teach Casper to be a wicked ghost like themselves, while haunting their best to scare the demolition crews at Applegate Mansion. |
