This month's
Food 'n Flix pick is the kooky 1988 Tim Burton flick,
Beetlejuice! It's a perfect choice for Halloween month, which also happens to be the
Fandom Foodies #Burtoween event, hosted by Carrie at
Witchy Kitchen. Beetlejuice was released when I was in 7th grade and was my introduction to the dark and magical world of Tim Burton. I mean, aside from Pee Wee's Big Adventure, which I never even realized was TB until recently.
If, for some odd reason, you're not familiar with Beetlejuice, it's the story of Adam and Barbara Maitland, a young couple who dies after their car goes off of a bridge not too far from their home. At first, they don't realize that they've died, since they wind up back in their beloved home. That is, until they realize that nobody else can see them and they stumble upon the
Handbook for the Recently Deceased in their attic.
