Church of Satan Sigil of Baphomet

Bob (MovieBob) Chipman here deftly and exhaustively catalogs the numerous merits of GHOSTBUSTERS, even detailing the context of the 1980s surge of Christian fear of the occult leading to the rising tide of what many call “The Satanic Panic.” This video is 37 minutes in length and well worth your viewing if you are a fan of this film as well as intelligent, articulate film appreciation.

Many Satanists (and secularists) I know have long enjoyed GHOSTBUSTERS for its abundant humor and theme of science overcoming superstition as well as for the Lovecraftian aspects included in its wide-ranging mockery of supernatural horror. If you’ve somehow missed this film or avoided it for its overt pop-culture success, MovieBob may interest you in giving it a look.

I eagerly anticipate future installments in this series based on such an auspicious debut.
