Bill Murray enjoyed box office success in 1984 with the release of Ghostbusters, but another film he starred in at the time never made it to theaters.
Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer’s Nothing Lasts Forever, directed by Saturday Night Live short film director Tom Schiller, featured Bill Murray and Dan Aykroyd but was never released, despite an estimated $3 million budget. According to Telegraph UK, the film was intended for a September release to capitalize on the success of Ghostbusters and Gremlins, but MGM postponed it and then canned it altogether.
The movie’s description via IMDB:
An artist fails a test and is required to direct traffic in New York City’s Holland Tunnel. He winds up falling in love with a beautiful woman, who takes him to the moon on a Lunar Cruiser.
The film has surfaced online in its entirety for the first time. Check out Nothing Lasts Forever below, via YouTube:
