With the franchise enjoying new life with modern audiences, Screen Rant‘s Pitch Meeting series is looking back at Ghostbusters. The 1984 sci-fi comedy revolved around a group of parapsychologists who become superstars in New York City through their ghost-catching business, only to find themselves pitted against a world-ending threat. Led by Bill Murray, Dan Aykroyd and Harold Ramis, the latter of whom also wrote the movie together, Ghostbusters was a critical and commercial hit, becoming the second-highest-grossing movie of its release year and spawning a franchise of sequels, animated shows and a reboot.
