A true classic. One of Burton's best.

Rating: 10/10 (20 October 2001)

"Beetlejuice" is a very original film, one that truly showcased Burton's potential as a stylistic director. Michael Keaton kinda steals the show as the one-liner encyclopedia Beetlegeuse. The supporting cast is excellent as well, including Catherine O'Hara as the New Yorker wife who "must express herself" in a house that, to her, could use a little blowtorch. Alec Baldwin and Geena Davis are worthy protagonists and are actually quite funny. This movie delivers the goods on an amazing level. Whether it's the humorous and novel story, the hilarious cast's efforts, the wonderful music, true Burton-esque set design, or the fact that there has never been a movie quite like this, you always get a kick out of it!
10/10
