: What is the qualification?
Scenario
A dead couple’s spirits are haunted by an insufferable family that has moved into their home and hires an evil spirit to exorcise them. This is Michael Keaton’s own favorite movie..Otho’s when he spray paints the walls of the house, the shoes change from the fire engine red elf looking shoes to white sneakers as he walks through the bathroom and then they change back to red elf shoes when he enters the next room. Beetlejuice: Ah. Well… I went to Juilliard… I graduated from Harvard Business School. I travel quite widely.
Do you think I’m qualified?
I lived through the black plague and had a pretty good time during it. I’VE SEEN THE EXORCOR APPROXIMATELY ONE HUNDRED AND SIXTY-SEVEN TIMES, AND IT’S GETTING MORE FUNNY EVERY TIME YOU THINK? The Geffen Company logo is accompanied by an eerie version of the Banana Boat song (sung by the film’s composer Danny Elfman). This version of the film is about 2 minutes shorter than the theatrical release, has a few extra scenes and is missing some others, is in black and white, and has a timecode at the bottom. This version has 4 major differences: Alternate Scene: The scene where Adam tried to leave the house after he and his wife died is different. Instead of a desert, he sees an empty darkness filled with spinning teeth. Additional Scenes: A scene has been added where Lydia develops the photos she took of Adam and Barbra.

Then, when her mother yells at her and accuses her of cutting into her sheets, Lydia runs upstairs and tries to convince her father that the pictures are real. There’s more to the scene where the adults search the attic for ghosts, as we saw a desert monster try to eat Adam and Barbra while they’re hanging from the attic window. Finally, there is a 2 minute extra scene where we see Lydia riding her bike home from school and her parents talking to Jane on the phone telling her they don’t want to sell the house. Lydia’s dance scene is shorter in this version, and there is no scene with Beetlejuice in the waiting room. The film ends with the last exterior shot of the house.

It may take two or three viewings to warm to “Beetlejuice.” It has a quirky, cheeky sensibility and a rhythm that’s alternately easy, lazy, and frenetic. A charming couple in New England die and return to their beloved home as ghosts determined to get rid of the terrifying new tenants. Perhaps Alec Baldwin’s most benign and engaging performance ever; Geena Davis, Winona Ryder and Sylvia Sidney are also very attractive. The new New York couple who take over the house (Jeffrey Jones and Catherine O’Hara) aren’t as well written or thought out as the other characters and some of their confused, dry cartoon characters. Of course, there’s Michael Keaton, who is wildly comical as Betelgeuse. I remember hearing comments back in 1988 that Keaton wasn’t close enough to make the picture worthwhile, but that’s only if you’re watching the film for the quick quips and visuals.
Betelgeuse is used as a horny, vulgar punch line
Keaton is really great, but he’s also great, and I felt like there was just enough of him to satisfy – it’s not really his story anyway, it belongs to Baldwin and Davis. Director Tim Burton is very careful not to overload the film. he’s surprisingly careful in constructing this story, making magic within a questionable scenario: a comic fantasy about dead people that ultimately celebrates life. ***from 1/2 ****
