Beetle Juice
A “burlesque version of The Exorcist” or the first truly “Burtonian” feature film introduced the thirty-year-old director as a master of funny and creepy weird characters. Among these is a dead bio-exorcist with nefarious intentions who is hired by a naive ghost couple to evict a pesky living family from their home.
