Ghostbusters II

Ghost busters II had been made in 1989as a sequel to the Ghostbusters that was made in 1984. Director Ivan Reitman made the action filled thrilling comedy movie that has been directed by Dan Aykroyd as well as Harold Ramis, who also played a substantive role in Ghostbusters II.

The sequel to Ghostbusters was released on 16th June 1989 in the USA, with the tagline of the movie “Be Ready to Believe Us.” The movie was adorned with two award wins besides a nomination for the best family motion picture in comedy. The star cast remained much the same as that of the first movie Ghost Busters such as Bill Murray as Dr. Peter Venkman, Sigourney Weaver as Dana Barrett, besides Dan Aykroyd and Harold Ramis as Dr. Egon Spengler and others. The total runtime of the movie is a hundred and eight minutes, and the movie is filmed in English while the sound is given special Dolby stereo effects. The worldwide distributors of Ghostbusters II are the Columbia Pictures Corporation. An important trivia about Ghostbusters II is that the police cars in New York have been shown as having red and blue lights, but in reality, the police patrols have the red and white emergency lights instead of the red and blue lights. It seems this detail had somewhat escaped the vigilant eyes of the moviemakers. While most of the sequels that are made for movies, do not bear the same appeal, the sequel to Ghost busters, Ghost Busters II is often rated as “ Sequel scares up more fun”.

In Ghost busters II, that has hit the theatres almost five years after the original movie, the business of ghost extermination is rendered as almost penniless. The once profit earning business has now become almost bankrupt. The Ghostbusters has now been entangled between lawsuits and the various court orders. The ghost busters team comprising of Peter Venkman, Ray Stantz, Winston Zeddemore and Egon Spengler has been prohibited by the court orders to continue their task of extradition of the ghosts. Now all of them are trying after some other job in order to earn a livelihood. However the ghosts began their share of trouble once again. The city of New York is once again looming under the threat of ghost trouble with the ectoplasmic river of slime fizzing over the city. Ghost busters II essentially deals with an ancient sorcerer attempting to possess Dana Barrett’s baby and can be born anew as Dana’s baby. Ghostbusters now try to drive away the evil spirit and stop the city to get slimed in this process. As a consequence, Ghost Busters II successfully drives away the negative emotions of the city from getting covered by the dungeon of slime.Imdb
