SYNOPSIS


In   the   surreal,   wonderfully   cartoon-like   comedy   Beetlejuice, a
childless couple, Barbara and Adam, move to the country only  to  be
killed  in  a  car  accident  while passing over a quaint covered bridge.
Their ghosts  return  to  their  beloved  Victorian  home,  and  find  the
'Handbook  For  The  Recently  Deceased',  which  not only lets them
know they're dead, but comes in handy when they learn that they can continue to live in their house, even though a new  family  --  from  the
land  of  the living -- is moving in. The new owners, fresh from the city,
are quite a strange group themselves, and  include  the  overpowering
hipster  mom  Delia,  her  pompous  SoHo  interior designer Otho, her
meek husband Charles, and  their  morose  teenage  daughter  Lydia,
who  befriends  the  ghostly couple. Though the threesome attempt to
scare Delia from   ruining   the   house   with   redecoration   and   her
unpleasant  personality,  their attempts fail. As a last resort, they call
upon the services   of    the    demented,    terrifying,    but    hilarious
'bioexorcist', Beetlejuice.
