Beetlejuice! Tim Burton Owns Us. (80s Horror Memories Ep. 43)

[@spiceupyourafterlife]

I personally think this is Tim Burton's best movie.

[@Ravuun]

Two movies shaped who I became during my adolescence. The Lost Boys and Beetlejuice.

[@dimebagdave77]

Throw in a little Dazed and Confused and I'm with ya👍

[@mixboy79]

Excellent choices

[@jdea5524]

Same

[@tdsollog]

Oh yes.

[@mixboy79]

@@dimebagdave77 love that one too

[@ministerofdarkness]

This movie stands the test of time and does not need a sequel.

[@c.ladimore1237]

the "dontcha hate it when that happens?" is SO random & hilarious & will be a meme forever b/c of that. a meme invented before memes

[@shallendor]

Beetlejuice is such a great movie with such a great cast!

[@johnnydeadd]

Original copy in the VHS side, and the first disc of the animated series box set in the DVD side as I type. 🤘🏻😁

[@DNOstalgia]

One of my all time favourite movies! Beetlejuice Beetlejuice is my most anticipated movie of the year! Cannot wait. I watch Beetlejuice every year, at least!

[@wstine79]

Beetlejuice was a favorite of mine growing up. The house and afterlife sets, the ghoulish make up, the characters, and humor were perfect.

[@JoseMorales-lw5nt]

I proudly wear my HANDBOOK FOR THE RECENTLY DECEASED enamel pin from time to time while working the swing shift as a cashier at Wendy's. It's always fun to see which customers catch the reference as I take their order. Even had a youngster grin at me once and said... SAY HIS NAME THREE TIMES!❤

[@coomtothebroom778]

Beetlejuice is one of those movies I could watch repeatedly, it’s just so much fun. It keeps getting funnier EVERY SINGLE TIME I SEE IT! Thanks for the great analysis on one of my favorite flicks. 😎👍🍿

[@TonyBoomgaarden]

I love Beetljuice, as well. But, you know what I find ironic about this movie. Beetljuice is hardly in his own movie. Let's hope he gets more screen time this go around. But, then again, maybe 🤔 that was the magic of the first one. The right amount of Beetlejuice . Still, I'd like to see more of him.

[@jamesmorant1406]

Love this movie it was my childhood. I hope the sequel doesn't mess it up

[@bucky716]

So excited for the new movie that last summer I took a short detour on a road trip to drive through where they were filming. Was cool to see the house built up on the hill, the hardware store, girls school, etc

[@itsmainelyyou5541]

I really don't think there should be a sequel. This is a masterpiece. It's still relevant to culture. I raised my children on this film. Leave it as is.

[@DaddyOfTheSugarVariety]

I heard Michael Keaton said he would only return to the Beetlejuice role if the effects were practical & not CGI, because it's more fun making movies that way.

[@chinchillaka]

Love Beetlejuice. Such a classic film. Looking forward to the sequel. Did anyone notice Beetlejuice is spelt differently when Keaton dances in the graveyard?

[@TANKTREAD]

Amazing Danny Elfman score, of course his score for "Batman" put him on the map.

[@eborgann]

Ummm.. Oingo Boingo? He had years of work before Batman. Pee-Wee has one of the most memorable scores for a movie out there.

[@TANKTREAD]

​@@eborgannYes, I am aware of Oingo Boingo. I am talking about when he started scoring films. Yes, "Pee Wee's Big Adventure"(which is one of my favorites in my vast library of Elfman scores, along with "Edward Scissorhands", "Night Breed", "Darkman", "Batman Returns" and of course "Beetlejuice") was his first Tim Burton film. When he scored "Batman" that's when the door opportunity in the realm of film blew wide open.

[@HorrorCritical]

Beetlejuice is a fun movie that I can watch over and over again. I just hope that the upcoming sequel will be good at least

[@jeremybowers3181]

Discovered this AFTER watching Batman as a kid and it became my favorite Burton movie surpassing ol Bats. Pure gold errrr Green.

[@mixboy79]

I love Beetlejuice. It's still one of my favorites, as a kid this was my everything. I even had the soundtrack.

[@geeshep4836]

Oh The Nostalgia I Remember A Videotape My Uncle Had Of All The Movies That He Recorded Including Beetlejuice, Ghostbusters, Batteries Not Included And The Fly 2.

[@blacktower7777]

I just let my 10 year old daughter watch Beetlejuice for the first time 3 days ago. She has watched it 6 times in a row so far. Last night she watched the dinner possession scene 5 times before letting the movie continue. This is a timeless classic and treasure.

[@skate4life2001]

I was a kid when my parents took me to see Pee Wee’s. My uncle had already seen it and told my mom there was a scary scene. Because of that, when the truck scene happens my mom covered my eyes. That was ONE of the first times in my life a movie scared me. I wish she would have just let me watch, because it wouldn’t have been near as traumatic as what my young mind thought up. To this day I can’t bring myself to watch the scene. I have no clue what she looks like, and I’m too scarred to check it out. Thanks Uncle Carey and mom

[@christopherwaldrop5293]

In spite of his relatively small role Glenn Shadix delighted me so much when I saw Beetlejuice as a kid and when I finally got to meet him several years later he was as nice and funny as I always thought he would be. He will be missed in the sequel.

[@Vaporvice84]

I know not too many people saw it, or if they did many didn't like it, but I liked "Pee Wee's Big Holiday". It had much more charm that is reminiscent of the original than other legacy sequels we can all think of. So I'm optimistic for "Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice".

[@mikebragg9591]

Another enjoyable and great video Tyler, keep up the good work, I look forward to these every week, I watch during my lunch break

[@JustinRigsbee]

"Beetlejuice" - saw it three times in the theater as a middle-school kid! Absolutely loved it! Between this, "Lucas," and "Heathers" - I had (have) a decades long crush on Winona Ryder! Loved the Danny Elfman score to this one as well. Looking forward to the (long overdue) sequel later this year! Episode 43 and counting! Keep 'em coming guys! Looking forward to next week's entry ("How sweet! Fresh meat!"). Cheers!!!

[@havakelly6244]

Woo I was bridal Lydia two years ago for Halloween.

[@80sguy11]

Bad Dreams is such an underrated film

[@midago7332]

A few sequels coming up that hold my attention, but this one is my most anticipated

[@harrykalb1187]

Appeeciate the mention of Welcome Home, Roxy Carmichael. That one gets forgotten.

[@wstine79]

Such a good movie. So much fun and so charming.

[@tdsollog]

I hope the sequel is done well

[@THEchiQ]

I was in the sixth form, which is the second to last year of high school, and loved it. I’m very keen to see the sequel,

[@blakethorn1953]

I love Beetlejuice; but the more and more I watch it the more I find myself hating Beetlejuice and loving the rest of the "Afterlife" world and the rest of the cast.

[@thecunninlynguist]

Enjoyed the flick growing up....I always loved the afterlife scenes...or the creature creations when Baldwin and Davis turn into monsters....but overall I kinda liked the slightly related but not really cartoon more than the movie 😂

[@FixerUK]

Must say that after watching Wednesday, Jenna Ortaga is perfect for a part in a sequel.

[@nvm9040]

Tim Burton knows horror without giving out horror straight out but using imagery and colors to illustrate his world The animated series is also good because it’s like a follow-up to the original movie

[@TheDamianvain17]

I saw the musical on Broadway and it was damn impressive with all the new things they've added to it while also keeping some of the originality to it. I also watched the cartoons when they came on. Honestly, there isn't enough Beetlejuice Beetlejuice Beetlejuice!

[@CaesarJayL]

Thats funny I love Night Shift still got the paperback DVD.

[@MDFMKisKMFDM]

I feel sooooo lucky to have gotten to see this film when it was first released back in 88 in the cinema not once but it resonated with me in such entirety I saw it 6 times!!!!!! (to a 12 year old gay goth kid this was everything)...... I felt like i'd finally found something that was me...... if i had a wish (apart from the usual world peace etc) i wish i could have the experience of seeing Beetlejuice in the cinema for the first time all over again

[@animalsrcute5762]

I love the movie. But I love love love love love the cartoon 💗‼️ I was even gifted the box set of the cartoon 💗❤❤

[@ayucleonardo5638]

🖤

[@jennifersaylor6907]

Don't forget the soundtrack.

[@Steve_8341]

This is the last remaining worthwhile thing to watch on Joblo Horror unfortunately. They cut Tyler’s show, John’s show, hell even the Manson brothers got booted.

[@ItsaKindOfMagic86]

In Queensland Australia, where Warner Bros Movie World amusement park is, they once had a Gremlins ride. You're ushered in a small theatre to watch some history documentary about Warner Bros studios and then a park assistant comes running in screaming that the gremlins have taken over, and we get in the ride "a car on a track" and we're taken through multiple sets that the gremlins are doing what they do best, causing havoc and wrecking film archives and offices of the studio. And its BEETLEJUICE who makes a cameo in the ride that electricutes the gremlins, the gremlin threat is dealt with. At the exit of the ride you're greeted by a singing Gizmo sitting atop of a Police Academy cop car 😄t'was a fun childhood experience for me, a fan of both films.

[@dimebagdave77]

🤘JOBLO🤘

[@ItsaKindOfMagic86]

It was either this or Gremlins that was my soft introduction to the horror genre, though they can both be considered dark comedy. 😉

[@BilTucker]

I went to see this movie with my sister and grandmother. My grandmother didn't know what to make of it.

[@vzxlid]

Somehow I had zero clue that the husband is Alex Baldwin?? He looked so different, but I loved the Geena Davis and Winona Ryder so much in this. I even googled the cast my last time rewatching and never picked up on that.

[@DeliveryServiceFan06]

Paul Reubens need more love.

[@80sguy11]

Btw nice baseball reference

[@gypsydildopunks7083]

I wish that guy from Layer Cake was in more movies or shows. Maybe I'm not watching the Good Stuff.

[@gypsydildopunks7083]

From my work in high end construction, the ultra wealthy weirdos always have an Otho or some kind of spiritual guru. Bizarre baby.

[@necrosunderground]

I've never gotten over my crush on Winona because of this movie and Edward Scissorhands. And I still throw out random quotes from it, just to screw with my coworkers, who obviously have not seen The Exorcist about a hundred and sixty-seven times

[@butterfacemcgillicutty]

Bell-a-fon-TAY

[@nicemarmot.5353]

Tim Bur-in

[@DirtTrailGuy]

You can say his name, it’s ok. Jeffery Jones. He was a great character and hasn’t killed anyone.

[@billyrattlesticks6949]

This is easily one of my favourite films ever made, I've seen it so many times and never get bored of it, it's bursting with charm and quirkiness, I adore it. I'm really really NOT looking forward to the sequel though, I'm hoping it captures the same vibe the same tone and despite some of the actors from the first film having since passed away or, ahem, something else (cough cough Jeffrey Jones cough cough), the same level of performances that the first one had, I just can't shake the feeling it's going to be woke as hell and ruin the first films legacy. Woke propaganda has no place in this movies world and yet nearly everything that comes out this last few years is riddled with it, mostly due to the films detriment. Prove me wrong Tim Burton...PLEASE prove me wrong....Just give us the sequel we deserve and have waited so long for.

[@edwardsanchez3708]

My dog Comet is in the hospital. I don't know how or where to ask for help. Can anyone who reads this please pray for him whatever your religion is. He, is the only constant gift/companion I have had in the last 11 years of my life in this chaotic world

[@themachine8277]

Laughed when you talked about the all star cast and left out that creep Jeffrey Jones.

[@BrettK-e3k]

Beetlejuice was a comedy

[@FNHot]

As long as the new one isnt woke, im totally on board. That is, no race / gender swapped characters, no mandatory fat black lesbian that's the smartest person on the planet that makes all the white characters, especially the men, look like idiots. Just tell a good story, in the same world, without pushing a DEI message, and we're golden.

[@matthewa2531]

Does anybody else remember the Chuck e cheese Beetlejuice spoof poster. Beaglejuice

[@zeedeejay242]

Saw in the theater... for 15 minutes, I started quoting him for the rest "as far as now" of my life... I hope Hollywierd doesn't corrupt this movie with wokeness... hope hope hope...

[@anthonyconigliaro9521]

I must admit that I am not excited about a sequel to a classic, perfect movie. However, Michael Keaton is not known for going for the easy cash grab, otherwise Beetlejuice 2 would have happened years ago. I honestly think that they must have shown Burton, Rider and Keaton an amazing script. I do not have high hopes, but I am not going to start throwing rocks.

[@ItsaKindOfMagic86]

I hear ya, Tyler. Tim better stick with the practical effects with the new one. I havent enjoyed his work for a while. The last two Burton films I did enjoy was Sleepy Hollow and A Nightmare Before Christmas. Everything else got saturated in CGI and too much colors. Burton's OG style is gothic and quirky. He needs to return to form.

[@MartyMcFly88]

He is using practical effects for the sequel

[@damonmcrea1275]

ouch, guess they had to leave Alec Baldwin outta the remake to be sure that no cast members were actually sent to the afterlife ...............

[@iHaveTheDocuments]

Jokes weren't off colored. They were a product of the time.

[@mr.stinker9335]

Right. People need to stop joining the cult of killing comedy.

[@travisjackson3076]

God I hope the sequel isn't trash and just another cash grab. Theres so much potential.

[@nicemarmot.5353]

Not at all looking forward to a sequel to this classic. A bit late don’t you think? And when is the last time Burton made anything good?

[@mr.stinker9335]

Jokes. They are just jokes.

[@simonwoodthrillerwriter]

Not a fan of Beetlejuice or Tim Burton's work. Visually, his films can't be beaten but story-wise and enjoyment factor, never do it for me. Big Fish is the only film of his I liked.

[@mikeobier7913]

If we get the old Tim back it will be great. No doubt in my mind. If we get the Tim we’ve had for far too long now it’s going to be a CG dumpster fire. Please Tim come back to your creativity and senses.

At the risk of being annoying myself, it always bugs the shit out of me when established KZbinrs mispronounce "macabre."
