This week Paul & Amy break down the 1988 dark fantasy comedy horror film Beetlejuice starring Michael Keaton, Winona Ryder, Alec Baldwin, Geena Davis and Katherine O'Hara. They talk about what a swing it is for Tim Burton's second film, who he originally wanted to play Beetlejuice, how the film depicts death and so much more.

Next week...Batman Returns! Beetlejuice is available to rent or stream on multiple platforms but don't forget to check your local library or apps like Hoopla and Kanopy!
