The Flint Journal has 50 passes (two tickets per pass) to give away to a special advance screening of the soon-to-be-released comedy "Ghost Town" starring Ricky Gervais and Greg Kinnear.

The comedy "Ghost Town" is coming to theaters nationwide Sept. 19, but you can see a special screening for free by reading this article and following the directions.

You may have not heard of this film so if not it's a comedy about Bertram Pincus (Ricky Gervais) who dies for seven minutes and returns to life with the ability to see ghosts. Plus, all the ghosts want something from him, particularly Frank Herlihy (Greg Kinnear), who pesters him into breaking up the impending marriage of his widow Gwen (Tea Leoni).

The film is being released nationwide Sept. 19, but you can see a special screening of it 7:30 p.m. Sept. 16 at Cinema Hollywood in Birch Run, Michigan, 122280 Dixie Hwy.

This is three days before the nationwide release of the film.

Please know, however, that just because you get a pass to the screening does not guarantee you the two seats. These screenings are always overbooked to ensure capacity and seating is on a first-come, first-serve basis. So if you get a pass, get there early.

That's it. That's all you have to do. So submit your posts now and once we've reached 50 posts we'll put a note at the top of this story saying all the passes are gone.

Those getting the passes will be able to pick them up at the center court information booth at the Genesee Valley Center on Sept. 10 through Sept. 15. source>>>
