Openair Cinema will be recalling the Ghostbusters at the Kowhai Festival free movie night on October 27.
The 1984 hit film will play at the Shoesmith Domain from 8pm onwards, with food and coffee available from 7pm.
Event organiser Urs Bauer says watching a film outdoors on the biggest screen in New Zealand is
a special feeling.
“It’s a really community orientated evening, and if you don’t like the movie then you can just lay back and watch the stars,” Urs says.
The film was chosen by the festival committee, after Urs gave them a number of Halloween related options.
“The real discussion was whether we would play the original or the remake.
“I ran a poll on the Warkworth Facebook page and there was an overwhelming response from those in favour of the original film.”
Urs says the weather often reflects the turnout at the event, which has been running since 2003. If it’s not raining, he is expecting to see up to 600 people attend.
