‘Ghostbusters’: The Full Franchise Recap
The Ghostbusters is now a franchise with a history that stretches back four decades, across movies, TV shows, and most importantly, children’s fruit-flavored beverages. (Ecto Cooler, we’ll never forget you.) If you missed any of that history, and you want to get caught up in a hurry before seeing the new Ghostbusters in theaters, we’re here to help.
In ScreenCrush’s latest franchise recap video, we take a look at Ghostbusters, from the first film, into The Real Ghostbusters, and then through Ghostbusters II, Paul Feig’s Ghostbusters, and then Ghostbusters: Afterlife and the new Ghostbusters: Frozen Empire. We’ll break down the lives of Peter Venkman, Ray Stanz, Egon Spengler, Winston Zeddemore, Abby Yates, Erin Golbert, and more.
Plus, we’ll explain how Dan Aykroyd has a surprising family history with ghosts, and how that helped inform the creation of the franchise. Recapping busting, it makes us feel good, you see. Watch the whole video below:
