Beetlejuice

After watching Edward Scissorhands i decided to rummage through my dvd collection to see if i have any other Tim Burton movies. And i came across Beetlejuice! I hadnt seen it in sooo long and realised that his movies a lot of fun. Its not on the same level as Edward Scissorhands, but it still brings that gostly, creepy feel to the film. Michael Keaton is brilliant and seems funny to see someone who was once batman playing a character like this.

As the film goes on, you see more and more american - fied environments. The one that really stands out is the model that the main character makes and beetlejuice ends up living in. It is exactly like the colder-sac in Edward Scissorhands. If you have never seen it, then check it out.
