On the verge of completing a major business deal, over-worked widower Elliot Hopper (Bill Cosby) winds up trapped between the here and the hereafter when a harrowing taxicab ride ends in the bottom of the river. Now a ghost, he must learn how to be seen and heard so that he can take care of his family in an outrageous, out-of-body comedy that co-stars Kimberly Russell, Denise Nicholas, and Ian Bannen (Gandhi). This warm and whimsical fantasy reunites Cosby with Oscar winner Sidney Poitier (Lillies Of The Field), who directed him in the hit comedies Uptown Saturday Night, Let's Do It Again, and A Piece Of The Action. Co-written by Brent Maddock and S.S. Wilson (Short Circuit, Tremors), and scored by Academy Award winner Henry Mancini (Breakfast At Tiffany's, Victor/Victoria), this family film is so funny, it'll raise the dead!
