‘Ghostbusters’ will be shown at Corbet Theatre
Historic Fox Theatre Restorations will be screening the next film in its 2016 Film Series, the 1984 action/adventure/comedy “Ghostbusters,” at 2 p.m. and 7 p.m. today, at Centralia College’s Corbet Theatre.
Three odd-ball scientists get kicked out of their cushy positions at a university in New York City where they studied the occult. They then decide to set up shop in an old firehouse and become Ghostbusters, trapping pesky ghosts, spirits, haunts and poltergeists for money. They wise-crack their way through the city, and stumble upon a gateway to another dimension, one which will release untold evil upon the city. The Ghostbusters are called on to save the Big Apple. The film is rated PG.
Admission for the movie is $10 per person, $8 for members, and $25 per family (three to four persons).
Presale tickets are available locally at Book ‘n’ Brush in Chehalis, Holley’s Place, HUBBUB, Santa Lucia Coffee and PostNet in Centralia, and online at http://www.brownpapertickets.com/event/2589620.
Sponsor of this movie is the Centralia Ballet Academy.
For more information, contact the Fox Theatre at (360) 623-1103. All proceeds from the event benefit the restoration of the Historic Fox Theatre.
