Then again, so does the movie itself, with a story that one can easily envision as coming from 1989 (there are definite echoes of "Ghostbusters II" in its finale).
Oscar Nominee Jason Reitman ( Thank You For Smoking , Juno , Up In The Air ), son of legendary director and producer Ivan Reitman ( Animal House , Stripes , Ghostbusters , Ghostbusters II ), has carried the torch from his father quite far in this industry.
In a similar manner to Ghostbusters II , negative energy and fear take the form of something very dangerous, which in turn creates mass panic and destruction.
Still, it seems as though a decent chunk of the Gods of Egypt budget went toward Butler’s skin bronzer—money that would have been better spent on the cheap-looking special effects, which appear to be culled from Ghostbusters II.
