Ghostbusters Movies
2 min read
As of now, there have been two official Ghostbusters movies released. There have been talks of a third movie for more than 10 years. At this point any more movies (with the original actors) seem fairly unlikely, but with the state Hollywood is in, it would not be unreasonable for them to revive the franchise with a remake or different style of sequel in the future.
Ghostbusters
Bill Murray, Dan Aykroyd, Harold Ramis and Ernie Hudson star as a quartet of Manhattan-based "paranormal investigators". When their university grants run out, the former three go into business as the Ghostbusters, later hiring Hudson on. Armed with electronic paraphernalia, the team is spectacularly successful, ridding The Big Apple of dozens of ghoulies, ghosties and long-legged beasties. Tight-lipped bureaucrat William Atherton regards the Ghostbusters as a bunch of charlatans, but is forced to eat his words when New York is besieged by an army of unfriendly spirits, conjured up by a long-dead Babylonian demon and "channelled" through beautiful cellist Sigourney Weaver and her nerd-ish neighbor Rick Moranis. The climax is a glorious send-up of every Godzilla movie ever made-- and we daresay it cost more than a year's worth of Japanese monster flicks combined. Who'd ever dream that the chubby, cheery Stay-Puft Marshmallow Man would turn out to be the most malevolent threat ever faced by New York City?
