Ghostbusters was such a huge film for me as a kid. So sad he's gone. I alway's hoped a third film would have been made lol. RIP Egon
I read the title of this thread as RIP Rolf Harris. Mann it's a long day... Still impressive pictures.
And me. Apart from being fun with particle beam weapons, it had a strong video game appeal (you go around hunting ghosts and blasting/capturing them. The parallels seem obvious!). In fact there was a pretty decent 8-bit computer game made based on the film. This was a time when home computers had just started coming onto the market in the wake of video game consoles. They were the days of the ZX81 and the Spectrum, the Commodore VIC20 and C64; the Atari 400XL and BBC Micro. Awesome times. That film always reminds me of them.
Not bad for something that was written, by one guy, in just over a month [iirc]... think i still have my spectrum copy somehwere...
