Bevan Bell's trailer, released on YouTube, is one of a number of fan re-edits of the Ghostbusters trailer, and one of a few that's gone viral online, getting over 600,000 views on YouTube and about a 20-to-one ratio of positive to negative reactions on the site, whereas the official trailer has fans divided.
