Who ya gonna call?

Rating: 9/10 (7 April 2003)

This is one of my favorite comedies of the 80's. This movie revolves around three paranormal researchers studying ghosts played brilliantly by Bill Murray, Dan Akroyd and Harold Ramis. They end up getting kicked off the campus where they worked and decide to open a business that gets rid of ghosts. They basically get no calls at first except for a lady who saw a vision in her refrigerator (Signorey Weaver). The guys soon though receive their first call and go and fight a ghost in a hotel. This sparks a rash of callers and the Ghost Busters are in business. This movie is great as it has good comedy and a great cast that also includes Rick Moranis, Annie Potts, and Ernie Hudson (who becomes a Ghost Buster after awhile). This movie also sparked a short-lived pizza chain and a rather good cartoon. This one is also, a whole lot better than the sequel that would come out five years later.
