In the cinema, the re-write of Dan Aykroyd's original 1982 science fiction comedy script for "Ghostbusters" by Harold Ramis replaced the futuristic setting for the present day. This effectively enabled the film to be made, and introduced to the mainstream the idea of fantastical events taking place in New York City. Two years later, "Gremlins" brought another batch of supernatural beings into our everyday world. At the same time another low-budget supernatural comedy success, "Teen Wolf" was popular enough to generate a television show, an animated cartoon, and a cinema sequel. Before its run was finished, another general-audience teen comedy with supernatural elements, "Buffy the Vampire Slayer", was in production.
