Beetlejuice

It’s showtime! This week on Bury Our Bones With Cinema, Ryan Etherington and Jimmy Murphy venture into the bizarre afterlife of Tim Burton’s Beetlejuice.

Ryan dives into the film’s unique blend of gothic whimsy and sharp comedy, while Jimmy brings the laughs faster than you can say “Beetlejuice” three times. Together, they explore everything from the unforgettable stop-motion effects to the darkly hilarious look at life after death. Is Beetlejuice a chaotic genius or just plain chaos? They’ve got you covered. Whether you’re revisiting this strange and unusual masterpiece or meeting the ghost with the most for the first time, this episode will leave you laughing and possibly a little haunted.
