Editorial Review:
Amazon.com: Kirsten Dunst stars as plucky teen niece to Steve Guttenberg in this 1997 telefilm that sets out to provide background for one of Disney/MGM Studios' popular thrill-rides, the Twilight Zone Tower of Terror. Guttenberg plays Buzzy, a down-on-his-luck former journalist relegated to concocting stories for a Weekly World News-inspired tabloid. When an elderly woman approaches Buzzy with a compelling ghost story, he's persuaded to investigate. Dunst is Anna, who joins Buzzy in his search to find out the truth about the mysterious 1939 disappearance of five people--including a Shirley Temple-like child star--at the eerily abandoned Hollywood Tower Hotel. There are some scary segments, which may truly frighten sensitive younger viewers. Still, for older kids and adult viewers, Dunst's presence and a fairly fun story makes this an engaging film. (Ages 8 and older) --N.F. Mendoza

Rating: - "I want to go to Disneyland now"
After watching this wonderful movie, I want to go to Disneyland to ride the Tower of Terror ride. My son just went and called me while he was on the ride. I was so jealous. This movie is great. Especially the big band feel of it. Love that era. Actors were great and I was in suspense till the end. Buy this movie!
Rating: - Great Family Fun!
If you are planning a trip to MGM this movie is must! It is just like the ride. My daughter and I went to MGM at Christmas and the TOT was her favorite ride. She missed it so much I bought her the movie as a rememberence. GOOD TIMES!
