Main Feature (1H 45M 8S)
Twenty five years ago Director Ivan Reitman, with help from writers Dan Aykroyd and Harold Ramis, created one of my childhood favourites, Ghostbusters. I have rarely seen a comedy in which the actors fire off hilarious line after another. The comic timing of Murray, Aykroyd, Ramis, and Moranis in particular is something to behold. It is hard to think of another eighties film packed with so many iconic moments such as the team’s run-in with the librarian, Venkman’s coldness during the psychic test, the “cougar” incident, the arrest and release of the gang, and of course that giant sugary white man-beast. This is one of those films which have an ability to immediately put a smile on my face and I wouldn’t be surprised if I were to watch this again shortly after finishing this review.

Over the past few years, the “fan documentary” has practically become a genre unto itself. Bored with the typical studio docs that generally pop-up as DVD bonus features, a new breed of documentary filmmaker has emerged. Armed with a true passion for their subjects, their work is exhaustive, and the finished product is often some of the most comprehensive and detailed accounts of the films to which they pay tribute.
With the success of Halloween: 25 Years Of Terror and the recent His Name Was Jason, the door has opened for filmmakers to collect the real stories behind many of the horror genre’s greatest films. The upcoming slate of such docs is growing, with The Shark Is Still Working, The Psycho Legacy, and a rumored...
