A single mom and her two kids move to the small town of Summerville after being evicted from their home. There they move into their late grandfather’s old creepy house and are surprised by what they find. While exploring their new home, one of the kids stumbles upon an old ghost trap. They soon discover that their family has a very interesting past. After 30 years of no ghost sightings, strange occurrences begin to unfold. Now these kids will have to dust off the old proton packs to save humanity.

This film is full of nostalgia that all the OG Ghostbusters will love, and is a fitting intro to ghostbusting for any newbies meeting the Ghostbusters for the first time. This was such an enjoyable film and brought back lots of memories from watching Ghostbusters as a kid. Another great blast from the past.

Marvel Studios’ Eternals

Marvel Studios’ Eternals

By Erin

Eternals is one of Marvel Studios’ most ambitious films to date. Eternals is on all major digital platforms now and will arrive on 4K Ultra HD, Blu-ray and DVD on February 15th! Marvel fans can enjoy never-before-seen bonus material including four deleted scenes and a gag reel. Eternals can also be viewed on Disney+.

The scope of the story is epic, spanning over 7,000 years on Earth and in space. Director Chloé Zhao employs a naturalistic style of location-based filmmaking, so she wanted the filming to take place at practical locations, as much as was feasibly possible. As a result, the film’s locations included multiple environments in London and the countryside U.K., as well as several different sites in the Canary Islands. This all makes for a very epic journey through time and space with a group of immortal heroes. Marvel fans can look forward to a great time falling in love with these wonderful characters, learn new MCU mythologies and explore some of the existential questions humanity has pondered since the dawn of time with Eternals.
