Ghostbusters is a 1984 comedy film directed by Ivan Reitman and written by and starring Harold Ramis, Dan Aykroyd and Rick Moranis. It is about three former parapsychology professors (played by Ramis, Aykroyd and Bill Murray) who form a ghost extermination service called "Ghostbusters". The film had a sequel and two animated series. The Brothers Chaps sometimes slip references to this movie and its spin-offs in Homestar Runner cartoons.
