Free outdoor screening of the 1984 comedy film Ghostbusters at Market Square Park as part of the Movies Under the Stars series.
Ghostbusters (1984) is coming to Market Square Park on Thursday, October 8, as part of Movies Under the Stars, Downtown Houston's series of free outdoor screenings. It's the original 1984 version, so you're getting the one that started it all.
If you haven't seen it in a while, the story follows four paranormal investigators who set up shop in New York and arm themselves with proton packs to battle mischievous ghouls. It's a comedy that works as much on the characters as it does on the special effects, and it's the kind of movie that translates well to a big screen outdoors.
The format is pretty straightforward: grab some takeout from one of the restaurants around the park, bring a lawn blanket, and watch the movie under the open sky with the downtown skyline as your backdrop. Since it's an outdoor screening, the weather will play a part, so keep an eye on the forecast before you head out.
