Dads reaction is probably a more exaggerated version of my reaction.

I let out a sensible chuckle. I had no idea there was a movie. I just said “Ha ha ha, girl look like doll!”

And thats as far as the joke went for me. But I guess the dad found it way funnier than I did.

Or maybe he was being tickled. By a ghost. A ghost tickler! Like the kind that jerked off Ray in Ghostbusters.

Thats right. In a PG movie, a character got a handjob. Between this, and Marty McFlys mom being horny for her son, the 80s were a different time. I would know. I was there, high on cocaine. Also I was born in '83. Sooooo…like 5 years old.
