Die Geister, die ich rief... (1988)
Frank Cross ist der jüngste Fernsehchef Amerikas. Er ist karrieresüchtig und gefühlskalt. Für ihn zählen nur Einschaltquoten – und die will er Weihnachten auf die Spitze treiben. Er plant eine Blut- und Action-Horrorshow, wie sie noch keiner kennt. Die Zuschauer werden total begeistert sein, so spekuliert der Einschaltquoten-Technokrat. Die Einnahmen aus der Werbung steigen schnell ins Astronomische. Doch bevor er sein Weihnachtsgeschenk präsentieren kann, geschieht Außergewöhnliches Ein ehemaliger Bekannter, der seit sieben Jahren verstorben ist, taucht plötzlich in seinem Büro auf. Der Geist kündigt ihm Besuch von drei weiteren Geistern an. Kein angenehmer Besuch für Frank, denn diese drei haben eine gespenstische Radikalkur mit dem egoistischen Menschenfeind Frank vor.
