[b]Plot[/b]
"Beetlejuice is a 1988 American comedy horror fantasy film directed by Tim Burton, produced by The Geffen Film Company and distributed by Warner Bros. The plot revolves around a recently dead young couple who become ghosts haunting their former home, a quaint and quiet house on a hill overlooking the fictional town of Winter Rivers located in Connecticut. When a family of metropolitan yuppies from New York City move into the house, the ghosts seek the help of an obnoxious, devious and mischievous "bio-exorcist" named Betelgeuse from the underworld in order to scare the new living inhabitants away permanently. Beetlejuice stars Alec Baldwin, Geena Davis, Winona Ryder, Catherine O'Hara, Jeffrey Jones, Sylvia Sidney and Michael Keaton as the titular Betelgeuse (the film's title being a phonetic spelling of the character's name)."

While not being a big fan of Tim Burton, 'Beetlejuice' is one of my all time favourite films.
The Atmosphere, the acting, the music and finally the jokes are all put together so well that it's hard not to love this movie. It's just one of those films I've seen so many times since I was a kid.
If you've never seen it, go out now and buy it!
It's been ages since I last watched this movie... definitely one of the best movies of Burton, along with Ed Wood

Beetlejuice! Beetlejuice! Beetlejuice! BEETLEJUICE!! :v:
I somewhat remember it, wasn't it like that guy named Beetlejuice tried to get someone to say his name by showing them a beetle and some juice or something?
