The trailer for Paul Feig’s female-led reinterpretation of the 1984 hit “Ghostbusters” finally dropped today.

The reboot — starring Kristen Wiig, Melissa McCarthy, Kate McKinnon, and Leslie Jones as the eponymous Ghostbusters crew — is set to hit theaters on July 15.

“30 years ago four scientists saved New York,” the tagline begins. “This summer a new team will answer the call.”

In a series of flash cuts, we see the new crew speed around Manhattan in an only slightly updated hearse, punch CGI ghosts, and weather a good deal of ectoplasm.

Watch the trailer below:
