Went and saw 'Ghostbusters' last friday night (8th) with Bill Murray and Dan
Akroid.  FANTASTIC!!!  In my opinion this is absolutely THE most original plot
idea I have ever seen.  It's been many years since I've ever been a repeat 
customer to a movie, but I'm going to be one to this flick.  There are so many
times that the audience is laughing so hard that they end up missing so much of
the machine-gun fast wit of Bill Murray.

The story-line concerns an outbreak of 'spook-sightings' and ghostly occurrancesin New York City.  Akroid and Murray (and another actor who's name I don't re-
member) are para-psychologists at a university, doing research into e.s.p., ab-
normal occurances, etc.  The three of them pool what money they have and go 
into business for themselves when this ghostly outbreak occurs.  The companys
name is 'Ghostbusters'.

Well, the sightings go from minor to bad and they discover some interesting
things concerning a clients place of residence and the story builds to a big
finale (Now it's Miller time!).  

Bill Murrays' wit will keep you rolling.  Just when things look totaly funny,
there's a quick grab to the throat, and just when you think that doom is impen-
ding on our heros, Murray tosses out some of that 'blitzed out partier' humor
that made him so famous on SNL,  Caddy Shack, and Meatballs.  If you enjoyed
those movies, you'll love Ghostbusters.  Easily one of the funniest movies I 
have seen in many years.
