![Beetlejuice [Blu-ray] [1988]](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/91-a9lxAS+L.jpg)

The demonic comedy that put acclaimed film director Tim Burton firmly on the map. The Maitlands (Geena Davis and Alec Baldwin) are a happy couple who, when killed in a car crash, return as ghosts to their beloved home to wreak havoc on the ghastly yuppie family who have moved in. Being novices at haunting, their efforts go unnoticed by the house's new inhabitants except Goth daughter Lydia (Winona Ryder), who doesn't mind one bit. At their wit's end, the ghostly couple call on a despicably disgusting demon named 'Beetlejuice' (Michael Keaton) for help. Review: The best version to watch - I love this film ! A long time favourite along with some other well known horror comedy flicks! Despite the 4K having identical extras to the blu ray the rest is a complete overhaul! I'll start with the Atmos effects which add more depth over the DTS surround. Echoes and additional voice at beight add to the scale of scenes and it is a lot of fun. The fly scene will genuinely have you looking over your shoulders and around the room! The next welcome upgrade is grain , it's there but now fine grain allowing the films details to really become noticeable! The biggest upgrade is colour palette, things look so much more nicer! Skin tones no longer look orange pink , while the films wider colour and deeper blacks really add contrast to the picture Colours overall look vibrant and tonal changes along with textures in clothing are much more noticeable. The warm glows on faces during certain scenes adds focus on the character and the film no longer has that slight fuzzy over saturated at times look it had before. The HDR effects are subtle but you notice it when it's needed most and it all adds to what I feel is a worthy upgrade over blu ray! On a side note , adding Dolby vision wouldn't effect this film greatly due to it's fairly dark interior shots as most of the film takes place indoors and as mentioned the new colour grading suits this movie perfectly! Review: Beetlejuice 4K - Beetlejuice is one of Tim Burtons finest movies and still holds up over 30 years later, Funny and likable characters such as Adam and Barbara Maitland, Lydia Deetz and Beetlejuice himself. The stop-motion in this film is impressive by 1988's standards. Especially for the snake and sandworm. Great visuals, great script, great music and in 4K it looks stunning, packed also with special features it’s a must buy for any physical media collector and a bargain at just £20

It's Showtime
A childless couple (Geena Davis and Alec Baldwin) living in big old house have an car accident whilst returning from the village store only discover they are dead! The house is sold to a couple and there "gothic" daughter (Winona Ryder). The now deceased couple want to scare out the new arrivals but nothing is ever that easy, so they call upon a Bio-Exorcist Beetlegeuse (Michael Keaton)But the ghost with the most is maybe a step too far! The Film is good fun and the surreal horror angle is delivered with a typical twisted Tim Burton style. The quality of the blu ray although not on a par with the latest and greatest releases is nevertheless pretty good. It shows no signs of artefacts and Gives an overall improvement in the film, leaving this blu ray as the best version of the film currently available. The Audio Track has had the HD multichannel treatment. There is a distinct lack of extras, not as poor as other some blu ray releases but just a few episodes from the cartoon series the film spawned. The Age of the film means that the Computer Generated Images we have become so used to aren't here but there is a fond nostalgia in me for the Latex special effects and stop animation techniques used. All in all a fun filled 90 minutes and delivered at a good price
