“Extreme Ghostbusters: The Complete Series” Finally Hits DVD This Month!
The 1990s answer to the classic ’80s series “The Real Ghostbusters,” “Extreme Ghostbusters” came along in 1997, the animated series airing from September 1 to December 8, 1997.
At long last, the complete 40-episode run of “Extreme Ghostbusters” is getting an official DVD release here in the United States, with Sony releasing the set on March 19, 2024!
Check out the box art below and read on for more information.
“Extreme Ghostbusters” ran for just one season, with the voice cast including Billy West, Rino Romano, Tara Strong, Alfonso Ribeiro, Jason Marsden, and Maurice LaMarche.
“Years after the events of The Real Ghostbusters, the original Ghostbusters crew have all moved on to different careers – except for Egon Spengler. After a prolonged quiet period, Egon is now a college professor on the paranormal and the sole caretaker of the firehouse – and Slimer.
“When supernatural activity suddenly resurges across New York and once again threatens the city, he recruits the help of four college students to form an all-new Ghostbusters team.”
The ’90s animated series has long been impossible to find on physical media, with episodes released on VHS in the States and DVD outside the U.S., but never the complete series.
You can pre-order “Extreme Ghostbusters: The Complete Series” now.

‘Hollywood Dreams & Nightmares: The Robert Englund Story’ Slashes into VHS from Lunchmeat!
The SCREAMBOX Original documentary Hollywood Dreams & Nightmares: The Robert Englund Story is now streaming on SCREAMBOX, and it’s next coming to VHS!
A limited edition of only 50 copies worldwide, the VHS copies of the Englund documentary will go up for grabs on Saturday, April 27 at 12pm EST on Lunchmeat’s official website.
Josh Schafer of Lunchmeat explains, “With so many of Englund’s works being seen and familiarized on videotape, it only felt right to offer fans and collectors the opportunity to experience this fantastic doc on VHS. We all know the Freddy movies just feel different on videocassette, and we wanted to bring that feel to this film for those who want it.”
“Since first donning a tattered fedora and a glove of eviscerating blades in 1984, Robert Englund has become a beloved horror icon. His portrayal of Freddy Krueger is without doubt a moment as visceral to the horror genre as Chaney’s werewolf or Karloff’s groundbreaking realization of Frankenstein’s monster. However, few realize the depths of Englund’s true power as a character actor away from the latex mask and iconic red and green sweater.
“A classically trained actor and director, Robert Englund has become one of the most revolutionary horror icons of our generation.. This unique and intimate portrait captures the man behind the glove and features interviews with Englund and his wife Nancy, Lin Shaye, Eli Roth, Tony Todd, Heather Langenkamp, and more.
“This is the quintessential documentary on the man who didn’t just bring Freddy Krueger to horrific and historic life on-screen and beyond, but has created a fantastic career as an elite actor and entertainer.”
Selling for $30, the VHS is presented in native widescreen format & duplicated in NTSC, housed in full-color slipcase and pressed on black videocassettes with silver foil face and side labels.
The VHS release is presented in partnership with Cineverse, Bloody Disgusting, and Screambox, in association with Dead Mouse Productions and Cult Screenings U.K.
