Who're you gonna call when you need ghostbusters?...

Decades ahead of "Ghostbusters", this Mickey Mouse cartoon was an extra feature on the ICHABOD AND MR.TOAD feature from Disney, about a quartet of ghosts in a spooky old house bored out of their wits with nobody to scare. A newspaper ad advertising the services of ghostbusters Mickey, Donald and Goofy, catches their attention and lo and behold, they've got the trio arriving at the mansion ready to go to work.

The fun begins as soon as they enter the house and from then on it's strictly a series of sight gags as the ghost hunters are scared out of their wits at the pranks dreamed up by the lively quartet. Funniest segment has Goofy doing a mirror routine with a ghost likeness who follows his every move and gesture. The payoff is the finale where an accidental mishap scares the ghosts away and turns the whole thing into a mission accomplished for the naive ghostbusters.

Nice animation, good background art and some clever plotting make this one a sure fire delight for young and old Disney fans.

A true Disney classic

This one features Donald, Mickey and Goofy in one of the more famous and memorable shorts. The trio come to a haunted house, as they are ghost exterminators—but the ghosts have other plans themselves! They plan on scaring the three and putting an end to their business. While this looks very possible, a little mixup at the end involving flour turns the day in favor of our heroes.

This is a gorgeously animated cartoon—with some of the very best color animation you'll find in a Disney short—with vibrant colors and amazingly beautiful backgrounds. It's simply one of the best looking shorts Disney made. As for the story, it's wildly creative, full of nice gags and fun. What's not to like about this film?!

Creative yes, funny not really

"Lonesome Ghosts" is an almost 80-year-old Walt Disney cartoon. It does not happen too often that Mickey, Donald and Goofy appear in the same film, but here they do and it's nice to see them together. Sadly, after the first scene at the office (and apart from the ending),they sort-of get their own very short film each of them within these 8 minutes. The three are called to a spooky place where a bunch of ghosts are truly board because they have nobody to fear. How luck for them that our Disney trio works as ghost hunters right now and here they come. They get owned by the ghosts pretty harshly, but wait for who has the last laugh. This film has Walt Disney, Clarence Nash, Pinto Colvig and Billy Bletcher as voice actors, some of the finest and most talented people back in the day which certainly elevates the material. It was smartly written and it's a very fast and creative short film. Unfortunately, however, I have to say that I found the action here just not as entertaining as most of their other movies (and why does Goofy not know how he looks like in the mirror scene???). That's why I don't recommend giving this a watch. It certainly could have been a lot funnier.
