Scenario
The spirits of a deceased couple are harassed by an unbearable family that has moved into their home, and hired a malicious spirit to drive them out.. This is Michael Keaton’s favorite film of his own.. Otho’s shoes when he is spray-painting the walls in the house change from fire-engine red elf-looking shoes to white trainers as he walks through the bathroom and then they change back to the red elf shoes as he enters the next room.. Adam : What are your qualifications? Beetlejuice: Ah. Well…
I travel quite extensively
I’m a graduate of the Harvard business school. I lived through the Black Plague and had a pretty good time during that. I’ve seen the EXORCIST ABOUT A HUNDRED AND SIXTY-SEVEN TIMES, AND IT KEEPS GETTING FUNNIER EVERY SINGLE TIME I SEE IT… NOT TO MENTION THE FACT THAT YOU’RE TALKING TO A DEAD GUY… NOW WHAT YOU DO THINK? Do you think I’m qualified?
A workprint of the film surfaced with some added/alternate scenes
The Geffen Company logo is accompanied by a ghoulish version of the Banana Boat song (sung by the film’s composer Danny Elfman).. This version of the film runs around 2 minutes shorter than the theater release, has a few extra scenes and is missing some others, is in black and white, and has a time-code on the bottom. This version has 4 major differences: Alternate scene: The scene were Adam attempts to leave the house after he and his wife die is different. Instead of a desert he sees empty darkness filled with rolling cogs. Extra Scenes: There is an added scene were Lydia is developing the pictures she took of Adam and Barbra. Then after her mother yells at her and blames her for cutting holes in her sheets Lydia runs upstairs and tries to convince her dad the pictures are real.
Edited into Terror Toons (2002)
There is more to the scene where the adults search the attic for the ghosts were we see the desert monster trying to eat Adam and Barbra as they hang from the attic window. Finally there is an extra 2 minute scene at the end were 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 dancing scene is shorter in this version, and there is no scene with Beetlejuice in the waiting room. The film ends with a final exterior shot of the house..

It’s a Halloween classic
Attaway & Irving Burgie (as Lord Burgess)]Performed by Harry BelafonteCourtesy of RCA Records. One of my favorite movies of all time. Spooky, funny and very rewatchable. I am waiting for that moment when I forget this movie again and get to rewatch it. Beetlejuice is a creativity booster, and inspirational, in an artistic sense, film. The sets, the wardrobe, the props – everything inspired me as a kid and made me love those dark-romance, Tim Burton motifs.
