A group of five led by Julie set up their filming equipment in the hotel of the derelict town of Goldfield, hoping to capture footage of the ghost of Elisabeth Walker, a maid tortured and killed in room 109.

I saw nothing than bad reviews about Ghosts Of Goldfield. Indeed, that title is more like a western instead of a horror so they changed it in Europe to Paranormal Ghost to make use of the success of the "Paranormal" word. Naturally that isn't enough so they made use of the title "Twilight" as coming from the movie Twilight, Kellan Lutz. If you have seen my review on the Twilight trilogy then you know it's in my top 5 of worst flicks ever. So that was no reference for me. Another name that I notice was Roddy Piper. If I put the word Rowdy between then I guess you know that I'm talking about the Hall Of Fame from the WWE. I had no problem with his acting like so many had, I know him from his WWF period in the eighties, screaming and very aggressive. He do appears sometimes in the new WWE world and here in this flick, I thought he did it well, hoped I could say that from the other actors too. Some you really see acting, sadly, Mandy Amano is number one on that list. The scene about the rat in the bar, so bad acting. She is also the only one who goes nude but there's nothing to see for the Kleenex boys out there. It's funny that Paranormal Ghosts started off pretty well. And it even had some blood in the first minutes but after a while the ghost appears in real life and it all becomes a bit dull. There's a lot of talking and suggesting that the ghost is there but when the red stuff comes in it's all to late. The ending is predictable and so it's not all that ghostly as it should be. The version I have is 18+ well if someone can tell why please do so. You can sit through it easily with your family just before the children TV starts. Nevertheless, due the good beginning of the film and the decapitation scene I give it a 4.

This movie starts out OK, but then just fails to really do anything. I purchased the movie at the local Wal-Mart because I used to live just 27 miles north of Goldfield in the town of Tonopah, NV. I hope that this isn't considered a spoiler, but ALL of the interior flamings of the hotel in this film were not filmed at the Goldfield Hotel, but up the road in Tonopah at the now defunct, Mizpah Hotel. I know!!!!! I used to work at the Mizpah Hotel and it all looked very familiar to me.The acting is barely mediocre in this film. Two pretty girls, one cute guy, and one hunk, along with Roddy Piper couldn't make this film shine. Five college students go to Goldfield, NV to study ghosts the closed Goldfield Hotel and spend the night there. I can tell anyone now that would never happen because Esmerelda County would never let anyone spend the night there. I don't believe that the hotel has actually had guests since the late 40's or early 50's. It may have opened up in the 70's for a short while, but I would have to check my facts.Don't waste your money going out and buying this DVD. Wait for it on Sci-FI or a horror channel some long snowy afternoon.Movie Grade-D+

I don't watch a horror movie looking for perfection. I look for a decent story that isn't screwed up by the actors or production staff. Unfortunately, pretty much everything that could have been done wrong in this film was.First, lets talk about the group of five documenting hauntings in the abandoned hotel. Only three of the five were actually doing so. The two remaining hangers-on were the stock obnoxious boyfriend and slutty girlfriend - both of whom were so obviously ill-matched with their partners that it trumped all suspension of disbelief. There was simply no way either of the documentarians would have been going out with either of their mates.Second, lets talk about shooting day for night. This is when a film is shot in daylight but manipulated to make it appear that the scenes were shot at night. At the very darkest it appears that the events in this movie occurred at around dusk. During other interior shots throughout the film it was clearly daylight outside because - duh - you could see the daylight through the windows. I don't believe a single exterior shot was actually filmed at night, and sometimes within the same scene the lighting would change from more red to more blue. The characters also inexplicably kept returning to what seems to be the basement of the hotel, which not only seemed to be a bit more haunted than the rest of the place, but also generally had daylight streaming down into it.Third, how about doing at least a LITTLE research for minor points? This Nevada hotel was, to paraphrase, "one of the grandest hotels between Chicago and San Francisco. Now it sits abandoned off I-95." Can anyone tell me what is wrong with that sentence? Exactly! I-95 runs north-south from Maine to Florida. Would it really have taken more than 20 seconds to find a genuine interstate or state highway along which to place this hotel? Fourth, the ending is never explained and the viewer is left not really knowing why it ended as it did. I know this is often a device used by inferior film-makers to deflect criticism by reflecting it back to how stupid the viewer must be to not understand the film. Viewers too often fall into this trap, and sometimes with good reason. In this case, however, the nonsensical ending is yet another symptom of a horrible movie - not the viewer's inability to follow a story.Even when looking for a low-budget horror flick to pass an October evening, avoid this one.

It's like a really bad episode of the Twilight Zone (and I'm a fan of the series). Do not watch it. It's really not worth your time.When the movie starts, you may even believe something good may happen later, only to fight your frustration against the bad direction, acting and special effects.The idea is OK, a ghost story based on a haunted hotel on a ghost town in the middle of nowhere. The hotel even looks nice when you first see it. Thanks to an awful series of bad dialogues and an unexplained connection between the characters in the movie which remains unexplained even after the movie is finished, you will regret having wasted your time watching it.Honestly, I love horror movies, but this one is not even scary... If you have a limited amount of time to watch movies and like to enjoy them, this one shall not be one of your choice.
