I've done a lot of research on Huper Optik and it seems like ghosting issues on the rear window have a lot to do with the quality of the installer and the shade of the film. More an issue on darker shades.
The Crystalline is $200 more than even Huper Optik, and I've read a lot of not great things online.

Had the 35% Huper Optik installed today, very happy with it. Install needs to dry out, still have some bubbles on the rear windows, but this was the right shade choice IMHO. Its a neat tint, definitely has a reflective look, and even looks a little green in the reflections from some angles. Wouldn't want it on say a black car, or a white car. Pretty much just what I was looking for, looks classy, looks like it could be factory, etc.
These are iPhone pics, taken before I washed it, its also very low light, so the light is shining right at the windows from the side. Its washed now, but once I can get the windows inside cleaned all up I will take better pictures with the SLR.
Looks less reflective in person. Tried to take a pic on the drivers side but the sun in the background made that hard.
