Ghost of Stephen Foster (2000)

The Radar read

A quieter title still finding its audience, though the rating rests on a thin sample, so treat it as provisional.

Synopsis

A young couple check into a hotel, only to find it a seething, writhing hotbed of horrific surrealism. They're dealt with shabbily, put through a series of bizarre polymorphic straits, as the host regales them with the story of his nightmarish encounter with the Ghost of Stephen Foster.

Radar blends quality, momentum and freshness into one “what to watch now” number — so a great older film can sit lower than a rising new release. The Quality signal above is the time-neutral rating, which is why an acclaimed classic keeps a high quality score even when its Radar number is lower. Radar outputs are editorial algorithmic recommendations, not objective facts, and may change as signals update. A Radar score is not the same as a TMDB, IMDb or critic rating.
