Tim Burton, the Mastermind Pt. 2: Beetlejuice

Beetlejuice! Beetlejuice! Beetlejuice!!!
Tim Burton didn't write this fantastically entertaining story, but he did direct it into a major motion picture. This movie is the best! What a fantastic use of irony. There's this couple...They live the most normal of normal lives you could. Just simple, they have a plain little house, a plain little car, and a plain little scale model of the town in the attic.
Little did they know that given some upcoming events, they will soon have a creepy nasty little man by the name of Beetlejuice living in their tiny model town.
Alec Baldwin and Geena Davis do a wonderful job at attempting to scare the crap out of their new tennants but aren't really too successful at first...at least, not until they get the help of Beetlejuice that is. Michael Keaton is a genius. And I love Winona Ryder I think even more than in Edward Scissorhands.
What a I love about this movie the most is the fact that there's this plain little couple with their plain little lives which they do live to their fullest extent, and once their done, that's when the real insanity begins. Come on, handbook for the deceased? the after life waiting room? the guy with the shrunken head? It definitely is yet another masterpiece from our beloved Tim Burton.
A+
