The Ghostbusters are hired by a woman named Dana Barrett, whose apartment at 55 Central Park West is haunted by a demonic spirit called Zuul, a demigod worshiped in 6000 BC as a servant to Gozer the Gozerian, a Sumerian shape-shifting god. Venkman, who finds Dana attractive, takes a particular interest in the case, competing for her affection with her socially-inept neighbor Louis Tully. As they look into the matter, Dana is possessed by Zuul, which declares itself “The Gatekeeper”. Louis is also discovered to be possessed by a similar demon called Vinz Clortho, “The Keymaster”. Both demons speak of the coming of the destructive god Gozer, and the Ghostbusters decide it would be prudent to keep the two separated from each other. However, the next day, the Ghostbusters office is visited by Walter Peck of the EPA, who arrests the team and orders their ghost containment grid is shut down, unleashing hundreds of ghosts onto New York City. Freed from the Ghostbusters’ protective custody, Louis/Vinz begins making his way toward Dana/Zuul’s apartment as the escaped ghosts create havoc throughout the city. Starring Bill Murray, Sigounrney Weaver, and funny Rick Morranis GhostBusters tells the story of the worlds first fulltime Ghost Hunting team in New York City. Available for rent right now in the Zune Video Marketplace. |
