He's guaranteed to put some life in your afterlife

I find it hard to believe there are people who haven't seen this movie. Winner of an Oscar and 6 other awards, this is THE ghost movie from director Tim Burton about two recently deceased people call upon the great Michael Keaton who plays an disrespectful, unlawful, and most of all funny "Bio-Exorcist". Upon recently realizing they're no longer with the living, Adam and Barbara are facing a serious problem; New tennants taking over the house they've lived in and loved for years. Knowing they both can not share the house with co-existance, the couple try anything to get rid of the family.

Throw in the music of Danny Elfman AND Michael Keaton at what might possibly be his finest (definitely his most memorable role!).....and you have one of the best movies out there. Okay---this movie ALSO has Alec Baldwin, Geena Davis, Winona Ryder, Sylvia Sidney, Jeffrey Jones, Catherine O'Hara (and Robert Goulet!), among others. This movie came out in 1988, and Alec Baldwin is so young, it's hard to believe it's him in this film:) I have loved this movie since the first time I saw it, and my enjoyment and appreciation of this movie definitely has not decreased over time. The cast grouping is perfect. Michael Keaton's character (Beetlejuice, of course) isn't even the most bizarre character in the entire movie. The dinner part...Read more
