If only time travel were possible, the third Ghostbusters movie could star 1950s comedy greats like Dean Martin, Bob Hope, and Jerry Lewis. Fortunately, one fan has cooked up a trailer for the 1954 Ghostbusters movie that never was.

Noting that the Ghostbusters films owe a great to old horror comedies, from Abbott and Costello flicks to the 1970s children’s series The Ghost Busters, YouTube user whoiseyevan created this faux trailer from over a dozen films and TV shows, recasting Dean Martin as Ray Stantz, Bob Hope as Peter Venkman, and Fred MacMurray as Egon Spengler. And personally, I think the 1975 Ghost Busters theme is a great improvement.
