2 must’ve been not so veiled cause I watched that shit on a loop as a kid. It was taped on a VHS with an actual horror movie about a cosmetic plant misshapenning I had to fast forward through. And I was never spooked by it. I could see if I saw 1 earlier having the same sentiment though.
Especially steeped in “religious warfare”. heh. But as an adult, it is so silly. But I guess also when I saw it for the second time, enough time had passed for SFX to improve so it also feels a bit campy on top of it all :)
As a fundamentalist Southern Baptist, Ghostbusters terrified me.
I saw it again in my early 20s and was like - this scared me??? WTF?
It’s a comedy stretched over the bones of a horror movie.
Makes sense a kid might get spooked.
