If you ever asked yourself "Who are these Ghostbusters cosplayers and why do they love this movie so much?", this surprisingly fun, positive and moving documentary explores the fandom, friendships and personal stories of the cosplayers/devotees of the classic 80s movies 'Ghostbusters' and 'Ghostbusters II' and the new reboot 'Ghostbusters (2016)'. This film is not 'Trekkies' which had attempted to make fun or laugh with the audience at the fans of the Star Trek franchise. A great tribute to the fans who commit their time, money and schedules to make people feel great in their communities. Great personal, heartwarming interviews with the fans from around the world and features interviews from the celebrities and creators of the original films. A great companion piece on Netflix to watch with the original movies and to watch before the new Ghostbusters reboot.

The team behind Ghostheads definitely put a lot of their own personal time and effort into this. They really wanted to show exactly what being involved in a fandom can be all about. Knowing one of the producers from years past and his enthusiasm and passion for Ghostbusters has really shown in this documentary. Let it be known that he does not make this a self serving documentary at all, even for the amount of dedication he has to this franchise, these individuals, and this fandom. If you sit back and take this documentary for what it really is, it can show you just how anyone, from any background can get involved and create a community for themselves to foster good ideas, to help people, and let anyone be who they want to be. We are all different, and that's OK. It is communities like these that can provide us support in times we might need it the most.

From the trailer and info dropped about this film I thought I was going to get an interesting look at how Ghostbusters fandom started, how it has evolved over the years, what it is now, where it's going...Instead, it was more of a few sob stories featuring 3 or 4 people who all, coincidentally, happen to like Ghostbusters. There was a little bit of history and relevance in there. But it seems like if they had to trim another 20 minutes off the run time, those interesting bits would be on the chopping block.This film should change it's title to something like: ∙Touched by Dan Aykroyd ∙How to Cope with Cosplay ∙Khaki Flightsuit Diaries ∙Drama and Your Inner SpenglerMaybe one day will we get a true Ghostheads movie.
