Tim Burton at his best

Rating: Null/10 (12 August 2016)

Spoilers may follow
The movie started out as a horror film that became a hilarious comedy about a couple of yuppies killed in a car accident at their prime.
Now recently dead they skewer the land of the dead as they readjust to being dead.
This is where the movie becomes fascinating for me and other fans of the film. You have to haunt a house for a hundred years, your assigned a case worker and receive a handbook for the recently deceased which shows the world building invested in the script. It really enriches the experience and shows that anything can happen yet still make sense by the rules set up.
Michael Keaton playing the title character only appears for thirteen minutes and still remains a screen presence. He really lightens up the movie once his name is said three times and shows the living how to party.
One of Ryder's first movies as a goth adds a new element to the Maitlands lives by becoming the child they never got to have once her family moves into their old house. They watch over her, protect her and even help her with school work. Its very sweet and tender.
I don't want to spoil the whole movie, but if your in for a fresh imaginative film unlike any other. This is for you.
