RIP Harold Ramis: Writer of Caddyshack, Animal House And Ghostbusters
By Ty Duffy
Legendary filmmaker Harold Ramis died at 69. His run from 1978 to 1993 as a writer, director and actor includes Animal House, Caddyshack, Stripes, Ghostbusters and Groundhog Day to name a few. His work touched pretty much everyone who enjoys laughing. Here’s a great New Yorker profile on him from 2004. On a personal note, my first foray into writing was making Ghostbusters books for my mom as a four-year-old.
It’s hard to decide on a movie, much less a scene for a fitting Ramis send off. So here are a few of our favorites.
