I’m not a huge fan of the horror genre. Gushing blood and
axes just aren’t my idea of entertainment. A Nightmare on Elm Street is clever
and The Shining is brilliant, but long. But the only horror movie I can truly
say I adore is Ghostbusters.
Okay, now,
stay with me, here. When Ghostbusters was released in 1984, it was advertised
as a comedy/horror movie. Really, it was. Perhaps the “horror” elements weren’t
that scary, but I remember jumping a couple times when I watched in the
theatre. The first time. Now we think of
it as a family comedy classic, but it wasn’t originally intended that way. Perhaps it isn’t the best horror film, but it
is a great film.
Remember, “Ray, when someone asks you if you are a god, say
YES”. You gotta love it.
