The Gist: Having hung-up their proton blasters some years earlier, the Ghostbusters are conveniently shacked up together in a New York rest home. Unhappily for them, there’s no sleepy retirement to be had as their new home is crawling with spooks. Cue a Bubba-Ho-Tep style caper as the chaps struggle with a haunted stair-lift, a possessed bingo master and some chronically bland food.

Pros: Plenty of opportunity for Bill to roll out the hip-replacement gags. Bruce Campbell as a ghost? Yes please.

Cons: Unlikely to attract the next generation of fans. Still, that’s the studio’s problem. We couldn’t give a stuff about it, so long as Bill, Dan and Harold are all present and correct.
