Beetlejuice

"Beetlejuice" will undoubtedly be difficult to surpass certainly in terms of pure visual imagination which incorporates some sets skewered at desperately crazy angles and outrageously cluttered administrative areas and waiting rooms where you can literally sit in monotonous silence for months at a time while listening to muzak. Tim Burton excels marvellously behind the cameras to deliver what is probably one of the most quirky films to come along in recent decades. His unique visuals strive to achieve an almost Georges Melies quality to them as Burton places all manner of incredible visual marvels on the screen and they are given an added dimension with generous splashes of garish colour all over the place. This film is unquestionably an amusing and appealing piece of entertainment and it is difficult to see how it could possibly be bettered and anyone would be certifiably insane to even try.
