Ghostbusters

Ghostbusters, a film of surpassing ridiculousness, yet also of great amusement. It doth tell the tale of three men who, having been fired from their jobs at a university for their outlandish theories of the paranormal, do decide to start their own business ghostbusting.

These three men, Dr. Peter Venkman, Dr. Egon Spengler, and Dr. Raymond Stantz, are a curious bunch. Dr. Venkman is a charming rogue, Dr. Spengler is a brilliant but eccentric scientist, and Dr. Stantz is a lovable nerd.

One day, the Ghostbusters are called to investigate a haunted hotel. They soon discover that the hotel is infested with ghosts of all shapes and sizes, from a giant Stay Puft Marshmallow Man to a slithering slime monster.

The Ghostbusters must use their proton packs and other ghostbusting equipment to capture the ghosts and save the day. Along the way, they get into all sorts of hilarious mishaps.

Ghostbusters is a film that is both silly and clever. It is full of quotable lines and memorable scenes. It is also a film with a lot of heart. The Ghostbusters are ultimately heroes who care about helping others.
