I dont know which I liked better...there's a russian ghostbuster or that he puts vodka on his pancakes! A few days ago I did a review for the wonderful fan film Freddy vs Ghostbusters. I just today learned of a feature length sequel...Return of the Ghostbusters.
I have to admit...I absolutely LOVED it. It took its time and the jokes were so well placed i was laughing my head off through the whole thing. I guess the whole thing is of a SyFy Pictures original quality...as far as the looks go. Everything else is pure gold. The one-liners are great, the acting is improved, the special effects are better, the story is bigger, and there are more and more movie references to keep all us nerds happy!
It's not a horror movie at all...but there are ghosts so I guess somebody might be scared. I did like the story again. I dont know about anybody else, but just hearing the ghostbusters theme chime in with some paranormal ass kicking just gets me going. I can't get enough of it. I even liked Ghostbusters 2, which some people would argue as being just horrible, but I liked it. Probably cuz I love the Ghostbusters so much.
There was a lot of creative ingenuity behind all this too. Some new technology helps add to the story. Instead of just a proton pack they now have a neutron-pack with a wrist mounted gun. I also liked the roof-mounted Proton gun on top of the Ghostbusters vehicle.
It's all great. Please check it out. Its available for free streaming online and for free download as well. Here is the official homepage. From there you can see all the cool extras and there is even a comic book linking the events of Freddy vs Ghostbusters to the beginning of Return of the Ghostbusters.
I love it when people that make movies remember who their audience is.

BAD MOVIE REVIEW: Freddy vs. Ghostbusters (2004) FAN FILM
THIS IS A FAN FILM. NO REAL FLASHY NICE BIG BUDGET MOVIE EXISTS.
That being said...I really enjoyed it. And I would like to share my thought with all of you fine folks here of the internet. I was cruising through the internet one day when I came across this work of art. Shortly after I found a link where I can download it for free so I gave it a shot. I'm happy I did.
In a world that is full of serious movies that come off silly and silly movies that are just too dumb, comes this baby. With a running time of around 30 minutes, they pack in enough decent stuff that you really don't care that its a fan film. The effects aren't that horrible and the acting is horrid, but that just adds to the fun. They have plenty of great one-liners and movie references to please any movie fan. I enjoyed the Matrix one...my name is NEAL! hahaha The make up effects on Freddy were done great too. He doesn't come anywhere near the greatness of Robert Englund, but the voice and laugh aren't half bad.
This is a movie from the fans for the fans. Actually compared to a Hollywood story...this is one that a true fan can enjoy. It's goofy of course, but when watching it you have to expect that. It adds to the overall fun of it. The dialogue was pretty good in my opinion. Hell even the credits were fun to read.
I say give it a watch. The ending was genius (after the credits). You can find a copy of the film here along with it's feature length sequel "Return of the Ghostbusters." Which is also free. It specifically said at the end it was for no financial gain....simply a movie for all of us. Thank you, I hope more videos like this make it to the light of day.
