Ghostbusters (1984)
Who does your taxes?
If you don't like this movie, you don't like fun. I loved it as a child, and goddarn it's still good. If only Pee Wee Herman and John Candy were in it as originally planned.One of the only movies I can think of out of hollywood that is just pure fun all around, and it doesn't leave you feeling stupid. Ernie Hudson is especially great as Winston Zedmore. All the best lines are his.
Ghost Fever (1986)
Hemsley and Avalos are the Laurel and Hardy of the late eighties!
I LOVE THIS FILM!! This movie has everything: A breakdancing ghost, Hemsley in a dual role, Luis Avalos in a hot tub with a sexy ghost. The plot is fairly simple. Avalos and Hemsley (Who swears a lot for a PG film) must investigate a mansion haunted by a ghost of a plantation owner who is also a vampire who runs a zombie factory. Made in 1987, feels like 1982, but don't let that discourage you. It gets a little slow when it turns into a boxing film, but the SHOCKING ending will have you wondering if this was ever meant for kids. Rent it. Buy it. request your local Art House theater to show it on your birthday.
Ghost Dad (1990)
The Cos' finest hour.
If you haven't seen this movie see it. Bill Cosby unsuccessfully tries to balance work and family, when he suddenly dies in a horrible car crash. He is then whisked away to HELL, AKA London, England, where a man named Edith trains him in being a ghost. Now Cosby must raise his kids as a Ghost Dad. The movie is insane. Cosby flies through walls, Pops out of a phone to strangle his daughter's boyfriend, declares himself Satan, and goes to his female neighbor's house for a little "afternoon delight". I've seen it 40 times. Why wasn't this masterpiece mentioned when director Poitier received the lifetime achievement award. "Edith is a Girl's Name!"
