Synopsis:
The dreadful manifestation of the evil sixteenth-century tyrant, Vigo the Carpathian, threatens to plunge the entire city into darkness unless the selfless Ghostbusters take action. Can they stop New York from being sucked down into the 10th level of hell - again? Five deleted, alternate and extended scenes have been masterfully reintegrated into the movie. adding four more minutes of footage to the repetitive sequel we all know and tolerate.
Intentions:
To put back some of the deleted scenes with a few good jokes and to let the movie breath a little more.
Change List:
The deleted scenes included on the BR are some of the best restored scenes for a bonus feature I've ever seen, almost no damage or dirt with minor grain and it's all in HD with the colours being pretty good. Only one scene needed major work, the others were pretty simple. The Louis and Slimer scene is a standout due to the unfinished VFX and SFX, I've done my best to fix it as good as I can. SFX was rebuilt with a new score taken from elsewhere in the movie, proton pack start up and cool down sound added. The 90% done comp of Slime was cleaned up to an acceptable standard, the yellowing was restored to green and a missing effect shot was taken from the credit sequence with the text removed and a Slimer growl borrowed from the first film,
Additional Notes:
- added Dana asking the boys why these terrible things always happen to her, with Egon trying to scientifically reason it - added Dana saying its all her fault Pete and the guys are in court, with Peter saying he'll land on his feet, like a cat - added Louis trying to catch Slimer with a spare proton pack and almost hitting Jen - added alternate version of Ray, Egon and Winston asking Pete to join them in the sewer, this time its in his apartment and not the street - added an extended dialogue scene with the boys in Lady Liberty discussing the statue, falling out and traffic directions.
