Black Comedy: Beetlejuice (1988)

Beetlejuice


"Adam and Barbara are a normal couple...who happen to be dead. They have given their precious time to decorate the house and make it their own, but unfortunately a family is moving in, and not quietly. Adam and Barbara try to scare them out, but ends up becoming the main attraction to the money making family. They call upon Beetlejuice to help, but Beetlejuice has more in mind than just helping"  By IMDB








This is the Trailer to the film Beetlejuice which is a black comedy, this film in particular isn't related to the type of film that we are going to produce but we were looking at it to see what features different types of black comedies contain. From the trailer we were provided with information that all black comedies contain a situation which in today's society is'n amusing and is made funny. For example this film is about ghosts who hire a bio exorcist to try to scare away the humans who have moved into there house. In this films case this isn't something that would usually happen in todays society but its a situation that is made funny. From watching this trailer our group has grasped the concept of what black comedy is and the things that are used to make them amusing.
