Halloween movie recommendations: Horror films perfect for a broader audience

It’s more funny than scary, but Ivan Reitman’s 1984 horror comedy about three unemployed parapsychology professors who start up a ghost-hunting business is a genre classic. Along with Bill Murray (in one of his most memorable roles), it co-stars Dan Aykroyd, Harold Ramis, Sigourney Weaver and the criminally underappreciated Rick Moranis. While nowhere near as great as the first one, 1989’s “Ghostbusters II” is also worth seeing — especially if the long-rumored “Ghostbusters III” ever happens.
