Beetlejuice: 20th Anniversary Deluxe Edition

by Mindy Monez October 6, 2008 6:56 PM
You know how every few years Hollywood decides a well-liked movie that's been out on DVD for a while will make even more money if re-packaged and renamed as a "Special" or "Deluxe" edition, even though the new version is not even close to "special" or "deluxe"? Yeah, that's pretty much what we have going on here. If you already own Beetlejuice on DVD or you don't and you see a cheaper one than this available, do not buy this "Deluxe Edition." Let me tell you why.

DVD Releases and Recommendations: April 1, 2008

Recommendation of the Week: Tim Burton's Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street is probably the best movie Burton's done since, arguably, Ed Wood back in 1994. It's worth a buy if: you're a huge fan of either Burton, Stephen Sondheim, or Johnny Depp, who took a break from staying in character as Jack Sparrow and gave a growlingly intense performance. It's worth a rent if Burton interests you, but you didn't like the overt sentimentality of Big Fish... or if you enjoy musicals okay, but wish they were bloodier. If you're a big fan, there's a 2-disc edition, wherein you'll probably get to see Johnny Depp go through the painstaking procedure of getting into full makeup, as well as Helena Bonham Carter rolling out of bed that way.
