A video popped up on youtube of test footage of Slimer from Ghostbusters II
This rare behind the scenes footage shows Robin Shelby (aka Robin Navlyt) rehearsing her actions as “Slimer” for “Ghostbusters 2.” Tim Lawrence is directing ways to approach the action for “Slimer.”
This rehearsal helped choreograph the mechanical puppeteers as well as Robin’s movements as “Slimer.”
This home video is from William Forsche’s (aka Foertsch) personal video collection. This is not your average studio made movie press release. This comes from a time before DVD’s, high def TV, and reality based television shows. This is a rare look of what it was like to be behind the scenes in the summer of 1989 for “Ghostbusters 2.” The camera work is somewhat crude and so is the language at times but it is all very real.
Robin did a lot of hard work as “Slimer” but most of it unfortunately never made it to the final cut of the film.
I’ve always thought of Slimer as a boy ghost. He is/was played by Robin Shelby.
Who knew??
Check out the footage:
