Plot summary
In this feature-length film combining footage from classic Warner Brothers cartoon shorts with newly animated bridging sequences, Daffy Duck, after having induced laughter in an ailing millionaire and forestalled the millionaire's death for a time (as chronicled in Daffy Dilly (1948), is the beneficiary for the deceased millionaire's assets. But the millionaire's will clearly stipulates that Daffy must use the money for the common good, by providing a service, and should Daffy think of pursuing selfish aims, the millionaire's ghost will "repossess" his millions by making them disappear from Earthly existence. Under the pretense of community service, Daffy opens an exorcism agency and employs Porky Pig, Sylvester Cat, and Bugs Bunny to track and eliminate ghosts, ghouls, and other monsters, while Daffy secretly schemes to use his learned "ghost-busting" talents to rid himself of the millionaire's nagging spirit.

"The Warner Archive Collection Blu-ray release of ‘Daffy Duck’s Quackbusters’ includes both the standard and ‘Matinee Version’ of the feature, with the matinee version featuring the cartoon ‘Night of the Living Duck’ prior to the feature." That said i downloaded both 1080p "cuts" and they are the same content. the one NOT labeled "matinee" still has the ‘Night of the Living Duck’ short. the only difference is the one labeled "Matinee" has chapter in its file. The other does not.
