    Storyline

    Edit
    Henry is a Los Angeles veterinarian whose fiancée Kate dies in an accident on the day they're to marry. Worried that Henry has closed off his social life, his sister suggests he use a psychic to contact Kate, lay to rest unresolved feelings, and live more fully. He tries it, though he doesn't believe in it. Nothing happens, so his sister gives Ashley, the psychic, Kate's diary. Now she's able to convince Henry she's in contact with Kate and start the therapy. Two things happen: they find themselves attracted to each other, and Kate's ghost, who also has some unresolved issues, returns to stop this budding romance. —<jhailey@hotmail.com>

    Did you know

    Edit
    • Trivia
      Original title was "How I Met My New Boyfriend's Dead Fiancee or: Ghost Bitch".
    • Goofs
      During the opening credits, almost all of the photos taken of Eva Longoria Parker and Paul Rudd are obviously fake (one person's face put into existing photo).
    • Quotes

      Ashley: Dan! Sorry, the phone scared me so I killed it.

    • Crazy credits
      On top of the credits "A film by" is shown, while all involved people are listed. It disappears when the thanks-section starts.

      Referenced in The Cinema Snob: Halloween: The Curse of Michael Myers (2016)

    I did like it
    Look it's Eva Longoria and Paul Rudd in a movie about a dead girlfriend haunting the new girlfriend. It's Gabrielle from Desperate Housewives and the guy who wore "sex Panther cologne" in Anchorman. If you are expecting a Golden Globe nominated movie then you need to rethink how you look at movies. However, if you are willing to suspend reality for 90 minutes and want to watch a funny movie then you've come to the right place. The characters are all funny. They work together very well. The real match up is Paul Rudd and Lake Bell. He's as funny as he was on Friends and she was funny and good looking all at the same time. I went with my wife, she enjoyed it and so did I.
