Inventive and Fun take on the Afterlife. RELEASED IN 1988 and directed by Tim Burton, “Beetlejuice” chronicles the story of a couple (Alec Baldwin & Geena Davis) who accidently perish after moving to a quaint Connecticut town. They find themselves sentenced to “haunting” their former house where they try to scare the new wannabe swank couple out (Jeffrey Jones & Catherine O'Hara), but they find that their Goth daughter is more curious than scared (Winona Ryder).

Thin on story but the practical effects are good and Michael Keaton is a lot of fun even if he doesn't fully arrive on screen until the 40-minute mark.

Good movie! Admittedly I was a little surprised how little happens across the opening hour or so, I checked the run time out of curiosity at around the 70 minute mark and was surprised that I only had 20 minutes left. To be fair, that does at least show the film doesn't drag at all. It's entertaining enough, I just thought more was coming. Michael Keaton is the star of the film no doubt, very amusing stuff from him as the titular character. I only knew he was in this as I saw him in the tr…
