Product Description
MODEL- 11796 VENDOR- UMD MOVIES
FEATURES- Ghostbusters PSP Movie
Ghosts invade New York and force a trio of spirit exterminators to
save the city in one of the biggest comedies of all time. Bill
Murray, Dan Aykroyd and Sigourney Weaver head the all-star cast.
Bill Murray, Dan Aykroyd, Harold Ramis and Ernie Hudson star as a
quartet of Manhattan-based "paranormal investigators". When their
government 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 nerdish Rick Moranis. The climax is a
glorious sendup 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? When the script for Ghostbusters was forged by Dan
Aykroyd and Harold Ramis, John Belushi was slated to play the Bill
Murray role; Belushi's death in 1982 not only necessitated the
hiring of Murray, but also an extensive rewrite. The most expensive
comedy made up to 1984, Ghostbusters made money hand over fist,
spawning not only a 1989 sequel but also two animated TV series
(one of them partially based on an earlier live-action TV weekly,
titled The Ghost Busters).
