Troy's Top 100 Movies 80's countdown. #82 Beetlejuice

#82 Beetlejuice
Tim Burton was at the top of his game with this one. Beetlejuice stars Michael Keaton as the ghost with the most who is called on to help the Maitlands (Baldwin, Davis) get the new residents out of their house after they died. The movie constantly attacks you visually with Burton's signature creep. With Alec Baldwin and Geena Davis as the Maitlands, a newly deceased couple, they take you on a journey while they try to make sense out of their new reality and try to deal with being dead and the new family that has moved into their home and Beetlejuice who is causing more trouble then he is worth. Beetlejuice takes you on a thrill ride through the mind of a true directing mad man with stunning visuals and over the top characters that blend the strange and unusual with the norm perfectly, much like Tim Burton himself.
