The movie directed by Christopher Landon starring Anthony Mackie, David Harbour, Jahi Winston, Tig Notaro, Erica Ash, and Jennifer Coolidge, tells the story of a family encountering a ghost in their new home, leading to unexpected events.
Even though it received a modest 42% on Rotten Tomatoes and a mixed Metacritic score of 53, “We Have a Ghost” performed exceptionally well on Netflix.
According to the platform’s Engagement Report from January to June 2023, the movie racked up an impressive 124.4 million viewing hours.
This achievement placed it among the top-watched movies on Netflix during that period, competing with titles like “Glass Onion: A Knives Out Mystery” and “You People.”
Several factors contributed to the success of “We Have a Ghost.” Christopher Landon’s reputation for creating popular horror-comedy movies, such as “Happy Death Day” and “Freaky,” likely attracted fans of the genre. Additionally, the lead role played by David Harbour, known for his part in Netflix’s “Stranger Things,” added to the movie’s popularity due to his established fan base. Other cast members, including Jennifer Coolidge and Anthony Mackie, also brought their recent successes to the project, enhancing its overall appeal.
