Beetlejuice!!! I can't believe my parents let me watch this as a kid lol (omg the sandsnakes!). And I loved it and watched it many times on VHS and I think it's still my favorite Burton movie.

Zombieland is seriously one of my favorite movies. I can't get enough of it. ♥

Black Sheep! I'm so glad that you encouraged me to watch that film, because it was freaking hilarious. I loved how in certain scenes they would have actual sheep (as opposed to the animatronic ones) digging around in the "dead" bodies. You just know that they stuck something tasty in there for them to munch on. XD

It's been far too long since I've seen both Ghostbusters and Beetlejuice. Stay Puft Marshmallow Man! That scene cracked me up when I was a kid.

The only film on the list I haven't seen is Dead and Breakfast. I shall have to check that one out. :D

Ty ty ty, Angie! I've only seen 3/5 films. I'll try to track down Black Sheep and Dead & Breakfast!

Okay, so I came here for the Ghostbusters review but I had to wait to read that one because DEAD AND BREAKFAST HECK YEAH. The scene where the kid goes to make himself a sandwich and then someone else turns the light on and there's blood all over the place and a dead body RIGHT NEXT to him and he's just sitting there munching on the sandwich all, "What??" Cracks me up every time.

I think you are the only person on my friends-list who has seen both that movie and Black Sheep. :-D

The guy's splatstick running-in-place and stuttering reaction are just priceless: "Bluberry, I was eatin' bluberry, blueberries..."

I have incredibly varied and weird tastes, what can I say. ;^D

That fall was genius. :-D

((and it was pie that he was getting and not a sandwich, wasn't it? Shame on me. Clearly I need to watch it again. And again, and again.)) *S*

And as for the movie I came here to read about-- I watched Ghostbusters *endlessly* when I was a kid, and then went about ten years without watching it, and just recently caught it again . . . still absolutely amazing. So many of the movies that I liked when I was younger, I go back and say, "Well-- okay, I was ten." This one is just pitch-perfect all the way through.

It truly is one of those films that you can watch an unending number of times and it's still just as funny and amazing as that first time.
