A young couple dies in a ridiculous accident and return to their home as ghost. They find out that their house is sold to a new family and they do everything they can to get rid of them. In the end, they call for the help of a "bio-exorcist" but they forgot to think about the consequences...
The second actual film of Tim Burton is an entertaining horror/black comedy with tons of enthusiastic innuendos about the after life and what follows. Burton presents his own humorous version of after-life matters and compares the organizing of the issues of the dead with those of a public service. Some interesting stop-motion techniques were used here and so, the film gets a more comic-y side to it. If your sense of humor isn't dark and twisted you may not enjoy this as much. In any other case, dig in!
Michael Keaton of course steals the show as the demonic possession-er that aims to help the dead spook the living. Geena Davis and Alec Baldwin are actually entertaining as the newly-dead goofy couple who just don't seem to adapt to the dead lifestyle so good. Winona Ryder is a classic addition since this is a Burton and Glenn Shadix, Catherine O'Hara and Jeffrey Jones drop in to give their little weird piece of black comedy!
Must watch this : on a random rainy November weekday when you are exhausted from work. Order some cheap Chinese food and enjoy this one half asleep half unconscious!
