Quirky – Dark Comedy – Fantasy
A darkly whimsical tale about a recently deceased couple who seek help from an eccentric spirit to help reclaim their home from unexpected new occupants.
One of my absolute favourites gifted to us by the wonderful Tim Burton films! This film has him stamped all over it and I would be surprised if anyone mistook it for the vision of anybody else.
It’s weird, it’s wacky and it’s wonderful. I love it!
An interesting take on what happens in life after death.
Winona Ryder is the perfectly strange and unusual teen.
Michael Keaton is this zany, hilarious, mischievous, iconic character who makes such an impact with only 17 minutes of screen time!
Geena Davis and Alec Baldwin play such a cute loved up couple that you are routing for throughout.
Catherine O’Hara does not disappoint as the eccentric, stereotypical upper class wannabe socialite artist.
Such fabulous casting!
The contrast between the worlds of the living and the dead is a visual feast fr the eyes, as well step into the magical mind of Tim Burton with his illustrations coming to life.
It’s spooky. It’s funny. It will have you cracking up laughing wile enjoying a truly unique narrative and aesthetic of a film.
Would watch again
