    Beetlejuice

    £325.00

    “See The Ghost With The Most”

    An original 1988 UK Quad movie poster from the bizarre Tim Burton dark horror comedy “Beetlejuice”. Designed by B.D.Fox Independent with Carl Ramsey finished artwork this is a really great looking film poster; incredible lifelike imagery with the green titles and cast credits finished with a luminous ink – it really is effective, adding a spooky vibe to the design. “Beetlejuice” is a wacky, twisted and wild, typical Tim Burton comedy in which recently deceased young couple Adam (Alec Baldwin) and Barbara (Geena Davis) seek help from crazed spirit Betelgeuse – a.k.a. Beetlejuice (Michael Keaton) – when they are unable to put up with the family that’s newly moved into their house. Presented in original ROLLED (as issued) high grade condition with colours that pop from the paper this super clean example represents a fantastic piece of cinema memorabilia for one of the best loved movies from the 1980s.

    Trivia: The skeleton head on top of Betelgeuse’s Merry-Go-Round is one of the first appearances of Jack Skellington, a skeleton figure which Tim Burton had been drawing since 1982, and would ultimately be used as the main character of The Nightmare Before Christmas (1993), which Burton co-wrote and produced.

    “Jack Skellington, king of Halloween Town, discovers Christmas Town, but his attempts to bring Christmas to his home causes confusion.”

    Tim Burton seems like the only being on the planet who could come with characters such as the ones found in “The Nightmare Before Christmas” The feature is literally a tale likely to be found in a child’s dreams It creates a world of its own, inhabiting unforgettable characters, events that should be shared with generations This film is a visual masterpiece; a movie that deserves its reputation as a timeless “Burtonesque” classic. This original 1993 British quad poster designed by Nels Israelson perfectly captures all of Burton’s stylish elements – I particularly like the use of the bright orange day glow ink in the title. Outstanding artwork and design for this rather unusual Disney production . This superb rolled (as issued) example looks beautiful and displays to marvellous effect, representing a a fantastic piece of original movie memorabilia for an innovative and popular film maker.

    Trivia: Jack’s doorbell is a nod to a similar contraption in the Addams Family original TV series.

    Trivia: Lock, Shock, and Barrel’s names, as a whole, are derived from wordplay of the phrase “Lock, stock, and barrel,” a phrase meaning ‘everything’, which, in turn, was derived from the components of a musket.
