GHOSTBUSTERS Is Back In Cinema's Next Month!!

One of my favourite experiences in a movie theatre last year, even better than attending Cannes or seeing Inception, was easily the remastered wide release of Back to the Future. What a rare joy it was to see a film you know every moment so intimately projected so large to room full of strangers, all laughing together at the right time, sharing the experience of watching our beloved characters in these magical situations as if it was the first time we'd ever seen the film. After all movies weren't made to be consumed in our homes and for my generation who were either just being born OR perhaps like me weren't even born yet, these modern day revivals are our only chance to experience these classic films the way they were initially intended... as a social experience. After the successful release of Back to the Future last year, Park Circus are bringing the other big 80's family fantasy/adventure film Ghostbusters back to multiplexes, a movie I actually prefer over Back to the Future. Certainly when I became accustomed to both movies it was Ghostbusters that got more replay value. Appropriately Ghostbusters is coming back to theatres this Halloween and well if you want to make sure these guys finally complete their trilogy with a third movie then the best way to do it is see this film again and make Columbia Pictures take note of how much we all love this franchise. Here's the press release and oh if you need to be convinced to see this movie when it returns to theatres next month, read our 50 Reasons Why It's The Greatest Film of All Time, the first of those articles we did three years ago.

In an all-new Digital Cinema Presentation, 80's cult classic GHOSTBUSTERS is back to save the world this Halloween. Directed by Ivan Reitman and starring Bill Murray, Dan Aykroyd and Sigourney Weaver, the film is about a trio of university parapsychologists in New York, who lose their research grant and decide to open their own business, 'Ghostbusters'. They are soon summoned to investigate strange happenings in a Central Park West flat and discover that all of Manhattan is being besieged by other worldly demons. But will they manage to capture all the ghosts and save the Big Apple in time? As well as boasting an impressive cast list, this much-loved sci-fi comedy is remembered for its selection of imaginative ghost effects - in particular 'Slimer' and the 'Stay-Puft Marshmallow Man'. On its original release in 1984, the film was a hit with both audiences and critics. It won a BAFTA Award (Best Original Song) for Ray Parker Jr.'s theme tune and was also nominated for two Academy Awards (Best Effects - Visual Effects, Best Music - Original Song). GHOSTBUSTERS will be back in cinemas worldwide this October.
