''WesternAnimation/DaffyDucksQuackbusters'' is a 1988 CompilationMovie starring DaffyDuck and other classic ''LooneyTunes'' characters. This film combines newly-animated footage linked with classic WarnerBros cartoons.

Here, Daffy Duck is a salesman who accepts a job to fulfill millionaire J.B. Cubish's wish to make him laugh one more time before he passes on. Daffy succeeds and when Cubish kicks the bucket, Daffy earns all his money from his will as long as he uses it for goodwill. But Daffy, well...being Daffy, plots to spend the money fir himself, as so he's haunted by Cubish's ghost, who says that his money will gradually disappear if Daffy appears to use it dishonestly. As a result, Daffy decides to open a ghost exterminating business to get rid of ghosts like Cubish and hires BugsBunny and PorkyPig to help him.

'''Cartoons:''' "Night of the Living Duck", "Daffy Dilly", "The Prize Pest", "Water, Water, Every Hare", "Hyde and Go Tweet", "Claws for Alarm", "The Duxorcist", "Transylvania 6-5000", "The Abominable Snow Rabbit", "Punch Trunk" and "Jumpin' Jupiter".

This film is notable for being one of MelBlanc's last performances in a ''Looney Tunes'' project.

* CompilationMovie: This movie combines classic Warner Bros. cartoons to create an original story. It is kind of jarring to hear the by then aged voice of MelBlanc suddenly transition to his more expressive performances in the classics.
** Two of the shorts, "The Duxorcist" and "Night of the Living Duck", were made within a year of the film (and the latter was made ''for'' the film).

* HumiliationConga: After Daffy gets humiliated on the air about the tiny elephant story, he plans to blame Porky for everything. This proves to be the final straw for Cubish, who takes Daffy's remaining money (and leaves behind a sign ribbing it in). He then gets his possessions repossessed and the entire apartment building is demolished (with him still in it!). And apparently, Cubish's curse is still on him, as a dollar he earns instantly vanishes once he gets it.
** To make matters worse, Daffy earned the money legitimately, fulfilling Cubish's LastRequest to have a good laugh before he died (at the expense of Daffy's dignity). The conditions that come with it weren't revealed until ''after'' Daffy had spent who knows how long working for him without complaint, and now he has to live the rest of his life under the heel of a sadistic ghost. Cubish is a grade A {{Jerkass}}.

* NonSingingVoice: In "Night of the Living Duck", Daffy sings with the voice of Mel Torme.
* SettingUpdate: The scene from "Daffy Dilly" where Daffy hears of Cubish from the radio is replaced with new footage showing the report on a television screen (with the original audio playing over it).

* TheLastOfTheseIsNotLikeTheOthers: "Spooks spooked, goblins gobbled, UFOs K.O.ed, aliens alienated, vampires evaporated, and monsters remonstrated."
