When they back away from the switched on proton back. Pure genius. Also the poor maid, talk about a scene stealer. My mom always laughs so hard at that part.
Can't even tell you how much the entire audience loved this sequence when I saw it at age 12! Practically every shot had the audience laughing! Still as funny now as it was then!
Back then movie theaters were like that more than they are today. My dad saw star wars when it came out in the theater he said the whole place cheered when they blew up the death star.
@@josephprins1258 My grandmother used to stand up and applaud really good movies at the end. At the time, classic Disney movies were the only ones that really got applauses... or deserved them.
I've always loved how this entire scene is just them completely winging it because it's their first job and none of them really know what they're doing or what to expect, lol
My uncle was somewhat of an exterminator, however, he opposed the idea of killing furry little creatures, so he relocated them to a forest. One day, a client refused to pay because he refused to kill them, so he did what they did, he said he’ll release them back in and they paid promptly.
@@silverdays2909 Correction: He didn’t actually put them back in, more like he released them in the backyard or driveway, have them decide where to go. My uncle built a reputation and a lot of people hated him for it, but he’d always win the counter argument with the client’s willingness to kill animals themselves.
When you watch this originally as a kid, as I did, the subtle humor of their outfits, the unlicensed nuclear accelerator strapped to their back, the people's reaction to them and the damage they ultimately cause goes over your head.
I've always been preferential to Egon's mannerisms. Harold Ramis was so funny in this movie. Everyone talks about Murray and Ankroyd because they have the best lines, but Ramis has the subtlest of jokes.
Well Ramis wrote Egon to be awkward, stiff and nerdy. The kind of person you don’t expect to be a hero but at end of the day, could be one. Harold took those characteristics, painted on a frown and BAM, you got Egon Spengler.
There's a certain tradition in American movies where some white guy does something completely idiotic, and an older black woman is the voice of reason. Love it.

Many of the subtleties, like Venkman backing away from Stantz in the elevator, went over your head as a kid; but they still added to the subconscious sense unexpectedness, which made you love it so much…
I love how the hotel dude quickly turns around on the payment issue. The hotel can easily afford the bill. The last thing they want however, is to have to repair the damage and still have the fucking ghost there.
i just noticed how realistic the tongue action of slimer eating, its so realistic, the puppetry was perfect, the attention to detail is why cgi is no match for good movie making

Not only that, but Slimer was also referred to as "The Ghost of John Belushi" an "The Glutenous Ghost of John Belushi". He had died shortly before the film and was originally going to be in it.
I was about 5 or six when I first saw this in the theater and it remains one of the most indelible experiences of my life. I know this is considered a great comedy first and foremost, but I'll never forget how genuinely scary and thrilling it was as well.

I was 11 years old when I saw this in the cinema back in '84... I understood most stuff, but then again, I was a SF nerd.
Same with Egon subtly flashing the price to bill Murray
To be fair, damage can be repaired for a price. The problems a ghost would cause would just continue indefinetly.
When he’s bargaining the price of the services rendered with Eagon throwing hand signals at him also went over my head as a kid.
