Goofs:

Crew or equipment visible: When Jennifer reviews the tape with the group shot, the actual film shot with the camera recording is shown, instead of what would have been recorded with Wade's camera. Note there's a cut in between where they zoomed in to take out the camera's display to make it look like it was a shot from Wade's consumer camera.

Not exactly a real ghost movie

The ghost of her late boyfriend talks to Elizabeth Rohm's character through a video in this slow-moving cable movie. The boyfriend died in a car accident that may not have been an accident. Rohm's character is trying to piece together the story. Everyone thinks she's nuts, of course, and the cops think she may be responsible for his death. The movie plays out more like a soap opera episode than a ghost story, unfortunately. Rohm is just OK as the bereaved (and haunted) gal pal, and the rest of the cast is your standard generic TV-type cast. Devoted TV fans may recognize Stacey Dash playing a former girlfriend of the deceased. A truly decent character actress, Roma Maffia, is wasted as the detective on the case. The ending is a real howler, by the way.
