10 Bizarre Scenes Cut From Famous Movies
10. 'Busters By Day, Hobos By Night (Ghostbusters)
The humour in Ghostbusters can be absurd at times, but it all makes sense for what this movie is trying to be. A giant evil marshmallow man rampaging through New York City may be ridiculous, sure, but in a supernatural comedy that's all about hunting ghosts? It works like a charm.
On the other hand, a ridiculous scene that doesn't quite work is the film's deleted hobo sequence, which is so random, so strange, that it's easy to see why it was cut.
The scene features stars Bill Murray and Dan Aykroyd playing totally different characters, separate from their main roles in the film. Here, they're portraying an unusual pair of homeless dudes, walking through the park and talking in strange voices.
The scene has no relation to the story of the movie - it really is just a couple of hobos chatting about random nonsense. And because it's easy to spot Murray and Aykroyd under their costumes, the scene would've only caused confusion (as in, "why have the Ghostbusters suddenly turned into bums?!") if it was left in the film.
