Vintage Ghostbusters change Film History
Meet the original 1950’s GHOSTBUSTERS – Bob Hope, Dean Martin and Fred McMurray.
You know the sign, you know the gang - or do you?
Fan made trailers are a risky proposition. Most of them tend to be silly, choppy things that really don’t do much other than reassemble a few key moments with a semi appropriate soundtrack. This particular effort though is far more than the usual ectoplasmic slime.
Ghostbusters was a pivotal particle accelerating slice of 80’s comedy that transcended mere film. Quoted incessantly around the house of Doe for years to come, “So, she’s a dog.”, “Nimble little minx isn’t she?” and “When someone asks you if you are a god, you say YES!” were said far to regularly.
Dan Ackroyd, Bill Murray and Harold Ramis - The Imposters?
Solidifying Dan Ackroyd, Bill Murray and Harold Ramis’ position as A-List comedians of their genreation, but what if the film had been made in the 1950’s instead of the 1980’s?
Dino, Bob and Lewis - The Boys ya Wanna Call
That’s the conceit this mock trailer takes and it’s more delectable than the devouring a 100 foot “Stay Puff Marshmallow Man” for breakfast. In this alternate reality of a premake the roll of Dr Peter Venkman is filled by Bob Hope. Dr Raymond Stanz is repossessed by the martini lovin, rat packin’ Dean Martin. That nutty professor Dr Egon Spengler is played by, well, the absent minded professor Fred McMurray and the real nutty professor Jerry Lewis as usual finds a way to get on camera too.
Fred MacMurray tames a savage beast
Reconstructed with loving care and an exhaustive memory for moments of celluloid past, watch the trailer below. Just remember “Who ya gunna call”, the matinee idols of yesteryear.
