Lots of Easter eggs and nostalgic references. My favorite was Phoebe, with a bowl of popcorn, watching the commercial from the original 1984 film. Honorable mention goes to the tiny Stay-Puft marshmallow men cooking each other and of course, making S’Mores.
The film will release exclusively in theaters on November 11, 2021.
Ghostbusters: Afterlife revolves around descendants of the late Dr. Egon Spengler – played by the beloved Harold Ramis – who discover his hidden lab at family farm they’ve inherited. Oddly enough, as they poke around, ghosts and other paranormal apparitions begin to appear. “He came out here for a reason,” whispers Phoebe, Spengler’s granddaughter, explaining why her grandfather moved to the middle of nowhere.

Who ya gonna call?
Well… this was everything a trailer should be. A heartfelt mix of action, comedy, and nostalgia that brings faint hope for moviegoers that something “fun” is coming to theaters.
