Rumors of a third Ghostbusters movie have been floating around for years, but now it appears as close to becoming a reality as ever. That’s because co-writer and co-star Harold Ramis recently divulged plans to shoot the film in the summer of 2010 and release it in 2011 — at least a year earlier than previous estimates. He adds that, given the 25 year span from the first movie, the film will feature “some new young Ghostbusters” in addition to the old guard (Ramis, Bill Murray, Dan Aykroyd, Ernie Hudson).

It’s quality, not quantity this week, with only a few new DVD releases that nonetheless include major films Paranormal Activity, Jennifer’s Body and A Perfect Getaway, plus the “should’ve been a major release” Carriers.

(Note: some sites have claimed for months that the long-delayed Renee Zellweger vehicle Case 39 is opening on Friday, but I have yet to find any evidence of it showing at any US theaters this week.)

New This Week: Paranormal Activity, Jennifer’s Body, A Perfect Getaway originally appeared on About.com Horror & Suspense on Tuesday, December 29th, 2009 at 01:54:09.
