Ghostbusters (1984) isn't just one of my favorite movies—it's one of the most influential films ever made.

Released in 1984 and directed by Ivan Reitman, Ghostbusters perfectly blends comedy, horror, science fiction, and the supernatural into a film that continues to entertain audiences more than four decades later. Starring Bill Murray, Dan Aykroyd, Harold Ramis, Ernie Hudson, Sigourney Weaver, Rick Moranis, Annie Potts, and William Atherton, the movie became a worldwide phenomenon and launched one of the biggest franchises in pop culture history.
In this review, I discuss:
👻 Why Ghostbusters still holds up today
⚛️ Why the practical special effects continue to impress
🧪 Why Peter Venkman is the most misunderstood Ghostbuster
🚫 Why I don't believe Venkman was ever truly a skeptic
🎬 The incredible chemistry between the cast
📺 Growing up watching The Real Ghostbusters
📼 My old ABC Sunday Night Movie VHS recording that accidentally had part of the ending taped over with an episode of Fraggle Rock
📚 The Ghostbusters novelizations and expanded universe
👻 How Ghostbusters inspired me to become a paranormal investigator
Few films have had the lasting impact that Ghostbusters has had on me. From Saturday mornings with a bowl of Cookie Crisp watching The Real Ghostbusters to quoting "Back off, man. I'm a scientist." in my career as a mental health counselor and researcher, this franchise has been part of my life for decades.
If you're a lifelong Ghostbusters fan—or if you're discovering this classic for the first time—I hope you'll enjoy this retrospective.
Who's your favorite Ghostbuster?
