40 years ago, no one had ever seen anything quite like Ghostbusters. A movie populated with hilarious and charming heroes and genuinely scary ghosts. A story that made you laugh one minute and scream the next. A big-budget comedy festooned with elaborate special effects. Despite the unconventional concept, director Ivan Reitman and co-writer/co-star Harold Ramis refashioned Dan Aykroyd's original story treatment of interdimensional ghost hunters into a contemporary comedy set in New York City. Bill Murray and Ernie Hudson eventually filled out the titular quartet, alongside rising stars Sigourney Weaver and Rick Moranis, with improvising galore and guffaws aplenty.

Backed by a clever marketing campaign and accompanied by Ray Parker Jr's unforgettable theme song, the movie was a critical and box office smash when it opened in early June 1984. It was an instant sensation, one that spun off into animated series, comic books, video games, mountains of merchandise, as well as multiple sequels.

Grab your proton packs, jump into the Ecto-1, and Stay Puft as AC and his awesome panel of guests (Ashley Lamers, Daniel Millhouse, Mackenzie Parker) celebrate four decades of (Who You Gonna Call?) Ghostbusters!!!
