Movies: Ghostbusters
The following is a movie I've watched and reviewed. Contrary to popular belief, I'm not selling DVDs. This is not a list of movies that tell you "the truth about UFOs". Simply said, I like movies. Each review is as simple and non technical as possible.

Description: At New York Public Library, an old, rigid librarian is walking in the underground archives, among books and books, when she finds herself in the middle of a haunting: books levitate and change place. She is shocked. Ray Stanz, Egon Spengler and Peter Venkman are three parapsychologists working for a New York University. Venkman is a funny playboy, Spengler a scientist and Stanz maybe the most normal guy. While Peter works at Uni on ESP with two subjects (a blonde and a real gone guy), Ray and Ego investigate at the local library. It seems for once they've found a genuine case. Back to University, discussing the possibility to catch ghosts, they find out the chancellor has decided to cancel every research about parapsychology. Stanz, Spengler and Venkman are fired from University. This way, they decide to start an activity on their own, as ghostbusters.
I was 8 when I saw it. My mom had to come with me, along with a buddy and his mother: man, were we scared. My buddy was hiding under the chair. Another funny memory I have is the one about Slimer: we thought he ate cigars (instead of wurstels)! Ghostbusters is a movie that about the paranormal that has fun around parapsychology. Bill Murray and Rick Moranis play a key role in making the movie funny. Moranis, especially, is ideal when playing the role of the ugly unlucky accountant ("Ok, who brought the dog?").
The soundtrack is made by the famous Ghostbusters theme by Ray Parker Jr., plus a few '80s hits.
