I Myself Am Strange And Unusual



Beetlejuice
Warner Bros (1988)
Tim Burton's second full-length feature film premiered in theaters 35 years ago today.  The horror comedy earned over 8 million dollars in its opening weekend and ended the year as the 10th highest grossing film of 1988.




Although I've seen parts of this movie many times over the past thirty years, the first time that I ever sat down and watched Beetlejuice from beginning to end was at the Mahoning Drive-In two years ago.  Now that I've seen it, I can't imagine allowing a Halloween season go by without playing it at least once.  It's available to stream with an HBO Max subscription or to rent on YouTube.
