An absolute timeless 80s all-time great comedic masterclass comedy event movie blockbuster from the mind of SNL comedy legend Dan Aykroyd, co-written with SCTV comedy & directing legend the late great Harold Ramis, with deadpan comic great Bill Murray on top laconic, sarcastic dry wit from as leader of a paranormal investigator group of scientists starting a blue-collar waste management business in NYC to ‘bust’ ghosts, meet nice women, & clean up financially.
They encounter pushback from the mayor’s office due to high levels of property damage, & must keep the laugh count high as they, along with audience avatar everyman the great character actor Ernie Hudson, struggle to save the souls of possessed uptown girl cellist Sigourney Weaver & nerdy Accountant Rick Moranis, & attempt to thwart the ushering in of an apocalyptic new supernatural epoch of interdimensional occult demigod Gozer the Destroyer.
A bona fide classic, & comedy horror masterclass; a sophisticated 1980s development of Abbott & Costello’s & Bob Hope’s comedic haunted house shenanigans of the ‘40s…
