La joyeuse revenante (1987)
Lucy Chadman vit heureuse dans son rôle d'épouse, de mère et de femme au foyer. Affectueuse, intelligente et drôle, elle adore son mari, Jason, un chirurgien esthétique promis à un brillant avenir. Mais est-elle vraiment l'épouse qui convient à ses ambitions ? Elle est d'une incurable maladresse, et sa sœur, Zelda, passionnée d'occultisme et excentrique à souhait, fait fuir toute la bonne société new-yorkaise susceptible d'aider Jason dans sa carrière. Un jour, Lucy s'étouffe en avalant une boulette de viande, et trépasse. Les mois s'écoulent. La vie reprend son cours, et Jason s'est remarié avec Kim, une ancienne amie de Lucy. Seule Zelda reste inconsolable et décide de ramener Lucy d'entre les morts à la grande surprise de Jason et de son entourage...
