In June of 1984, a ghostly comedy flew into theaters and became an instant classic. Now every spooky season, this cultural phenomenon takes over and demands to be remembered. So, before we close the case on this year’s spooky season, we wanted to revisit one of the biggest and ghostliest movies of all time: Ghostbusters!
This comedy film drew in audiences with its perfect blend of spooky and silly. The concept of disgraced scientists capturing ghosts for a living was just too funny to fail, especially with the likes of Bill Murray, Dan Akroyd, Harold Ramus, and Ernie Hudson leading the way. Not to mention Sigourney Weaver, who had survived Ridley Scott’s Alien only a few years before.
So, let’s all hop in the Ecto-01 and bust the history of Ghostbusters!
