We could talk about Ghost all day long.

It's the film that made pottery sexy, had us all wishing we had a love like Sam and Molly's, and inspired swathes of ladies to head to the hairdressers for a pixie crop while clutching a photo of Demi Moore.

It's hard to believe the 1990 romantic thriller (which earnt nearly $506 million at the box office) came out 30 years ago as it's still just as entertaining to watch today - even if we are left bawling at the end.

To celebrate its anniversary (and just in time for Valentine's Day) the Oscar-winning movie is returning to the big screens.

Yes, Showcase Cinema and Showcase Cinema de Lux are screening the flick at dozens of locations across the UK, at 7pm on Valentine's Day and 5pm on Sunday 16th February. There's your V-Day date night sorted.

If you need a reminder, the film centres on Sam Wheat (Patrick Swayze), a banker, and his artist girlfriend Molly Jensen (Demi Moore) who are both madly in love.

However, when Sam is murdered, he finds himself stuck in an in-between state, left to roam the earth as a ghost.

When Sam learns the truth about his murder, he seeks the help of séance Oda Mae Brown (Whoopi Goldberg) to help him protect Molly and get avenge his death.

James Dobbin, Director of Event Cinema for Showcase Cinemas said: "This huge box-office hit is still as popular today as it was 30 years ago, and we wanted to celebrate all things romantic this Valentine's Day.
