Ghostbusters Terror Dog Replica: "Who doesn’t love Ghostbusters? Not only does the film perfectly combine humor with horror, but it hosts some of movie history’s most memorable and groundbreaking practical FX. A 1984 Academy Award Nominee for Best Visual Effects, Ghostbusters‘ team used puppetry and primitive motion-blur (lens modification with vaseline) to deliver its scares, peppered with the charming real-creature clumsiness that gives the movie its heart.
And now, Sideshow and Chronicle Collectibles are proud to present the ultimate licensed Ghostbusters Terror Dog Replica. Rotocast in resin and hand-painted like the actual filming puppet. This version, the Legacy Series Edition — limited to 250, includes a signed plaque and custom plaque holder. Horns for both the Keymaster and Gatekeeper are included with each Terror Dog.
Cast from the original FX mold — the mold that birthed the rubber puppets used in the film — the prototype was restored by Kristina Lucas Francis and approved by the original sculptor, Randall William Cook. In fact, the accompanying name plaques will bear Cook’s original autographs. The Terror Dog stands on its own four feet and requires no base. He will easily fit in with your favorite models and prop replicas, or tower above the smaller Ghostbusters action figures that you’ve collected over the years.

Tamika hails from North Beach, Maryland, a tiny town inches from the Chesapeake Bay.She knew she wanted to be an actor after reciting a soliloquy by Sojourner Truth in front of her entire fifth grade class. Since then, she's appeared in over 20 film and television projects. In addition to acting, Tamika is the Indie Spotlight manager for Daily Dead, where she brings readers news on independent horror projects every weekend.
The first horror film Tamika watched was Child's Play. Being eight years old at the time, she remembers being so scared when Chucky came to life that she projectile vomited. It's tough for her to choose only one movie as her favorite horror film, so she picked two: Nosferatu and The Stepford Wives (1975).
