I watched this movie all the time when I was younger. I had been looking for the DVD in my local Target for some time. Finally, they had a copy on the shelf. This movie is as great as I remember it being. Michael Keaton steals every scene he is in.

Before making Batman, director Tim Burton and star Michael Keaton teamed up for this popular black comedy about a young couple (Geena Davis and Alec Baldwin) whose premature death leads them to a series of wildly bizarre afterlife exploits. As ghosts in their own New England home, they're faced with the challenge of scaring off the pretentious new owners (Catherine O'Hara and Jeffrey Jones), whose daughter (Winona Ryder) has an affinity for all things morbid. Keaton plays the mischievous Beetlejuice, a freelance "bio-exorcist" who's got an evil agenda behind his plot to help the young undead newlyweds. The film is a perfect vehicle for Burton's visual style and twisted imagination, with clever ideas and gags packed into every scene. Beetlejuice is also a showcase for Keaton, who tackles his title role with maniacal relish and a dark edge of menace. --Jeff Shannon
"One of the most quirky dark comedies I've seen, this one is Keaton at his best. Growing up with this one, I'm not really sure what first attracted me to this one, whether it was the bizarre character of Bettlejuice or what, but I found myself watching this often. I'm not typically as into dark comedy either, but I think this one just hit it all right, even for some one not into this genre. "
