An interesting effort is coming your way before long, and it’s pulling together a cast that will make it a kind of who’s who of underappreciated actors. Ghost Team, directed by Oliver Irving, has announced its cast, which includes Jon Heder, David Krumholtz, and many more.
Heder hasn’t managed to find material that resonated with audiences since Napoleon Dynamite, at least, not to the extent he deserves, and Krumholtz is almost the poster boy for not getting the recognition that you’d expect. Unfortunately, both actors often play characters that may not seem that difficult, and/or are something of a sidekick.
The new film, about a team of paranormal investigators who find themselves in over their heads, also stars Melonie Diaz, Paul W. Downs, Justin Long, and the woefully overlooked Amy Sedaris.
Though the film can’t mention its own indie status enough, meaning the budget is extremely tight,...

The official Ghostbusters franchise is back in a big way next year thanks to Paul Feig and his new cast, but there are others who want to snatch a piece of the spook-tracking pie, albeit without the budget or the proton packs. Justin Long, Jon Heder, David Krumholtz and more are all signed on for the cast of indie comedy Ghost Team. Oliver Irving has just kicked off production on the film, working from a script by Peter Warren. Long, Heder and Krumholtz are joined in the cast by Melonie Diaz, Paul W. Downs, Tom Schiller and the always reliable Amy Sedaris for a story that finds a team of ghost hunters embarking on a fresh investigation into paranormal activity. Except this time, it might be a little closer to home and possibly more than they can handle.While this bunch might not have the sort of high-tech gear that the usual Ghostbusters carry,...
