It was luck that I had this film and the sequel on my NowTV.
I watched this in the afternoon and it brings me back fond memories. Not too scary but suitable for the spooky month.

Who ya gonna call?!

Review By: Peter89Spencer

They came, they saw, they briefly conquered the 80s.

A trio of misfit parapsychologists set up business as Ghostbusters. Ideal really because although slow at first, their business starts to boom as New York comes under threat from a supernatural force.

Dan Aykroyd had this idea about space Ghostbusters in the future and the plan was to have himself and fellow Blues Brother, John Belushi, star in it. Pitching it to producer and director Ivan Reitman saw the basic concept retained but eventually it became what we now know as Ghostbusters. Co-written with Harold Ramis (also a co-star), Aykroyd’s genesis turned not only into a “monster” smash hit at the box office, but also into a pop-cultural “phenomenon”. In fact it actually is nice to re-visit the film these days without the public euphoria that swamped the movie for what seemed like a decade. T-shirts with the Ghostbusters logo on were everywhere, a telephone number if you rang it would have the Busters on answer phone, whilst the title song from Ray Parker Jr could be heard on the hour every hour on the radio. Even the catch phrase of “who ya gonna call?” was being used by the young, the old and the restless. Marketing genius or cynical tactics covering a sub-standard film?

Well ultimately the film is really rather ace, it has some problems for sure (the effects were bad back then, never mind now and Ernie Hudson is a token addition to the team) but it’s razor sharp with its wit and has a mass appeal to people of all ages. It’s a basic odd ball’s to the rescue plot, but the differing characterisations and comedy lift it considerably higher than similarly themed films that had come prior to it. That it boasts a bigger budget and Bill Murray of course helps the cause. Murray was brought in after Belushi had left the mortal coil, and promptly owns the film. His Dr. Venkman is a fusion of sarcasm, biting one liners and sees science as a way of getting girls. All of which blends mirthfully with the polar opposites that are Aykroyd’s Stanz and Ramis’ Spengler. Sigourney Weaver lights up the screen as the soon to be possessed, and chased by Venkmen, Dana Barrett and Rick Moranis does meek goof-ball supreme as Louis Tully. There’s also value to be found in the script courtesy of some political nudging as the mayor is aware of vote power, while the human element badness and cynicism comes from William Atherton’s (suitably weasel like) stiff suit Walter Peck.

Given its success (it made a worldwide profit of almost $262 million) a sequel was inevitable. Amiable enough as it was, it was a pale shadow of the first film and even recycled the ending. So stick with this bad boy then, a fun film for all that serves as a reminder of when the world went Ghostbusters barmy. 8/10

Great marriage of comedy and spookiness
Very rarely can you pull off a successful blend of two separate movie genres,but the makers of Ghostbusters were overwhelmingly so.On the one hand,you have the comedic charm of Bill Murray and Dan Aykroyd,and on the other,a genuine ghostly spookiness that makes you want to hide under a blanket.I recently bought a copy and watched it for the first time in several years,and it’s still just as fresh as it was in it’s initial release in 1984.It has a great supporting cast for Murray and Aykroyd,including the always great Sigourney Weaver,Rick Moranis,Ernie Hudson,and Harold Ramis,who is just as talented behind the camera as he is in front of it.Watch it with your family,but keep an eye on younger children,as the spookiness may be more than they can handle. Great stuff.

A comedy classic
My daughter was flipping channels the other day and ran across the great 1984 Supernatural comedy GHOSTBUSTERS and stopped to watch for awhile. As happens with her generation, she eventually got more interested in her phone and friends and wandered away. Me? I was drawn back into this film so much so that I went downstairs, grabbed the DVD (yes, kids, I still own DVDs) and popped the film into my Home Theater System to give it a proper viewing.

I gotta say…I was so inspired by how terrific this film is that I changed course and devoted the 23rd BankofMarquis Movies podcast to this film.

Starring the comedic trio of Bill Murray, Dan Aykroyd and Harold Ramis and featuring Sigourney Weaver, Ernie Hudson and the great Rick Moranis, GHOSTBUSTERS tells the tale of supernatural exterminators called to save NYC when paranormal experiences start escalating in the Big Apple.

But it’s not the destination, it’s the journey that makes this film so much fun. Told in a standard 2 Act arc – Origin Story followed by a 2nd Act of battling the “Big Bad” – it is the comedic timing and chemistry of the 3 leads that makes this film work (aided by a wonderful “straight man” turn by Sigourney Weaver and a brilliant “side-kick” comedic turn by Rick Moranis).

Credit for keeping this film together, moving and more than just a “series of jokes” is Director Ivan Reitman (STRIPES, MEATBALLS), he had the comedic “cred” to appeal to these 3 big time comedians, but has a Producers sense of efficiency and a Director’s command of subject and tone.

This film was Aykroyd’s idea and he shines as, Ray Stantz, the heart of the Ghostbusters. He truly believes in what he is doing and has a child-like sense of wonder in his actions. Harold Ramis (more noted as a Writer and a Director) was brought in to co-write Aykroyd’s idea, steering it more towards Reitman’s idea of humor and writing in a way that would make Murray shine – but he is also wonderfully deadpan as techno-geek Egon Spengler. The serious nerd who never smiles.

But…make no mistake…this film revolves around the antics of con-man Dr. Peter Venkman, a scientist who doesn’t believe any of this, but is willing to go along as long as it achieves his goals. And…what are his goals? Well…womanizing and getting through life with as little work as possible. Murray is at the top of his comedic game in this film and most of his scenes are improvised – but, to be fair to the writers, Murrya’s riffs are what Ramos and Aykroyd put down on paper. He is the mouth of this film and his energy drives this movie throughout.

Sigourney Weaver proved that she could do more than Sci-Fi action (like ALIEN) when she plays the straightman to these 3 wild-men. She stated that she was channeling her inner Margaret Dumont (straightman to the Marx Brothers) and she does an admirable, charming job in a role that could have easily come off as annoying.

Rick Moranis, of course, almost steals the film as the nerdy accountant neighbor of Weaver’s. His improvised riff as he goes around the room at his own party is the stuff of comedic gold.

Ernie Hudson comes along as the 4th Ghostbuster. Many folks thinks that he is the “unnecessary” GhostBuster, but I would argue that he comes along at a time (right after the origin story is complete) to be the audience surrogate – to ask the questions that need to be asked and to get necessary expository passages out.

And…finallly…there is William Atherton as EPA Agent Walter Peck. I kind of feel sorry for this actor, for he had a decent career going up to Ghostbusters, but he was so good as the annoying, buzzkill “anti-Ghostbuster” that serves as the foil for their antics, that he wasn’t really accepted in any other kind of role the rest of his career (he would play a version of this character in the first 2 DIE HARD films).

The special effects hold up, just enough to make them passable. Keep in mind that this film was made over 35 years ago and the effects were state of the art back in the day, so I would recommend you cut that some slack.

And…if you do…you’ll be rewarded with a rollicking fun time at the movies.
