Daffy Duck's Quackbusters is an animated comedy built around a new storyline that ties together older Warner Bros. cartoon shorts with freshly made linking scenes. Daffy inherits a fortune from a wealthy man whose laughter he once provoked, but the will requires the money to serve the public good. If Daffy spends it selfishly, the millionaire's ghost will make the wealth vanish. Daffy therefore presents himself as a public benefactor and opens a ghost-hunting service, recruiting Bugs Bunny, Porky Pig and Sylvester to deal with spirits, vampires and other monsters, while he privately looks for a way to free himself of the ghost and keep the inheritance.
The film was released in September 1988 and runs 72 minutes. It is directed by Chuck Jones, Robert McKimson, Friz Freleng, Greg Ford and Terry Lennon, with Steven S. Greene producing. For Jones it is the eleventh of fifteen films in chronological order, following Daffy Duck's Movie: Fantastic Island and preceding Looney Tunes Golden Collection, Vol. 1. For Freleng it is the twelfth of fifteen, with the same titles before and after. The voice cast is led by Mel Blanc as Daffy, Bugs, Porky, Sylvester and other characters, alongside Roy Firestone, B.J. Ward and Mel Tormé, with Julie Bennett and Ben Frommer heard in archive material.
On IMDb it holds 7 out of 10 from around 2,900 votes, while on TMDB it stands at 6.8 from roughly 153 votes, indicating a modest but favorable response from audiences.
