At the time, it seemed like a one-off oddity; now it seems like a Burton blueprint: surreal sensibility (check), nutty energy (check) and an acute feel for the pangs of the outsider (check).

Definitively a classic and great performance by all actors in the major roles. Especially Keaton.

Tonally, Beetlejuice resembles some of the other witty horror films of the era, like the Evil Dead and Nightmare On Elm Street series, but the fascination with model-building and heroic outsiders is pure Burton.

Absolut comedy horror classic. Brilliant cast and engaging story. Michael Keaton especially is impressive.

En riktig klassiker som alla måste ha sett innan de dog. Tim Burton har bara gjort en dålig film och det är Nightmare Before Christmas.
