35mm Screenings!
Michael Keaton, Geena Davis, Catherine O'Hara, Alec Baldwin, and Winona Ryder star in director Tim Burton's comic twist on supernatural horror tales–Beetlejuice. When a couple of nice, young homebody ghosts try to haunt the pretentious humans who have moved into their house, they ask for help from a demonic wraith they cannot control in this comic fantasy that mixes the quick and the dead with a laugh and a fright.
“This is my art, and it is dangerous!” – Delia Deetz, Beetlejuice
From sketch comedy to scene-stealing film roles, Catherine O'Hara has spent decades crafting some of the most delightfully eccentric characters ever to grace the big and small screen. Emerging from the groundbreaking Canadian series SCTV (where she first met Eugene Levy), O’Hara immortalized her off-center sensibility in unforgettable films like Beetlejuice and Best in Show, as well as the Emmy-winning series Schitt's Creek. From voicing Sally in The Nightmare Before Christmas to crossing the country with a polka band to reunite with her son in Home Alone, O’Hara’s singular gift for blending absurdity, vulnerability, and immediate affability creates characters that linger long after the credits roll.
1988, 92 Minutes, USA, Directed by Tim Burton, Rated PG
