Storyline
Five years after the events of the first film, the Ghostbusters have been plagued by lawsuits and court orders, and their once-lucrative business is bankrupt. However, when Dana begins to have ghost problems again, the boys come out of retirement only to be promptly arrested. The Ghostbusters discover that New York is once again headed for supernatural doom, with a river of ectoplasmic slime bubbling beneath the city and an ancient sorcerer attempting to possess Dana's baby and be born anew. Can the Ghostbusters quell the negative emotions feeding the otherworldly threat and stop the world from being slimed? Written by David Thiel <d-thiel@uiuc.edu>

Trivia
Several pieces of material from the trailers did not appear in the film: - Egon uses a PKE meter to read a piece of floating crystal. - When someone says the Titanic just arrived, Venkman replies "Better late than never." In the film, this is said by Cheech Marin. See more »Goofs
Revealing mistakes: Towards the end of the movie, Dana crawls out on the ledge to get Oscar and the traffic below is seen traveling at very high speeds. See more »Crazy Credits
There is a brief scene in the end credits of the Ghostbusters being honored at an apparently restored Statue of Liberty. See more »Soundtracks
