Who ya gonna call?

The Joes go ghost busting as Cobra uses cartoon voodoo hocus pocus to summon three warrior spirits to aid them. Said spirits aren't evil, but are merely held under Cobra's control via a personal item from each of them. The question for the Joes becomes, how do you kill something that is already dead?

This is a premise with some pretty solid potential, but the execution here is kind of lacking. The ambition never rises above connecting the dots in the most pedestrian way possible. It's like one of those people who takes pride in doing something with the least amount of effort possible, even if the result is barely serviceable.
