I was freaked out as hell by this movie as a little kid when I saw it in the theater. As an adult, I see it as one of the most marvelously creative and original films I have ever seen-it is a pure trip into Burton's dark, twisted imagination. And Keaton's performance was so enthusiastic that you can't help but enjoy it.
I feel like every person who is and was ever in marching band loses their shit over this opening. I especially love when the bass brass comes in for the attack and the "looneytunes" clarinets just start running up and down the scale. What a fantastically ominous march.
It was released in 1988 Beetlejuice is the best film of the 1980s and it's been a classic for all his years reference best songs and it's cool it's great
I was just in East Corinth, Vermont yesterday. Wow, that's a small, dead town. This film really added charm to it and made this town another character in the film.
Such a good arrangement, the Contrabassoon sends shivers down my spine and the counterpoint throughout is just damn awesome. No one uses so many instruments like Danny, the guy's a genius.
Fun fact, Tim Burton called on Danny for most of his films. He had a preferred actor, actress, and composer. Johnny Depp, the woman who played Bellatrix, and Danny Elfman
I don't know why, but I get the feeling that the deepest corners of Tim Burton's mind play Danny Elfman's theme songs on a loop. Beetlejuice, Batman, Nightmare, Corpse Bride... I just have to hear the first few bars of film score to know Elfman wrote the music. It's not hard to see why the Burton-Elfman-Depp trio exists; they're three of the greatest and strangest minds in all of cinema.
Y'know, the funny thing about Micheal Keaton is that, while watching him in the Batman movies, I could STILL see Beetlejuice in his face. I wouldn't have been surprised if he suddenly switched to his Beetlejuice voice during either movie. Oh, and BEETLEJUICE! *waits for something to happen*
did you play this piece from "Music for a Dark Theatre"? thats all of Danny Elfmans work combined. cuz my highschool did that at my sisters graduation. it was awesome!!!
@exposed97 well, the original concept had beetlejuice as a murdering psychopath ghost rather than the clown he is. Some major rewriting was done to make him more humorous. I'm glad they did.
And their STILL talking about doing a sequel lol! Whatever. I love these opening credits. Great music coupled with cool tracking shots of the town and then the spider crawling on the model home. Great stuff. :)

wish i saw it in the theaters back in 1988
Great film and well done for the past all the 1980s
This opening always gave me chills.
Andrew Pytko but still the same time, it’s really cool.

I watched this movie all the time as a kid. Oh the memories.

The only thing wrong with this score is that.... It ends
Greatest intro song ever...thanks Danny!
I love how creepy and cool it sounds at 0:14

Nathaniel Stamper lol all towns are like that in Vermont
I thought this took place in CT. Looks like CT to me, but then agsin all northesrtern towns look alike.

One of the greatest pieces of music
1:33
To myself: "Of course Danny Elfman composed this song."
Chowdaire Right?
I literally said that. I was like "This music is insanely awesome. Oh Danny Elfman? Yea of course, thats why."
Fun fact, Tim Burton called on Danny for most of his films. He had a preferred actor, actress, and composer. Johnny Depp, the woman who played Bellatrix, and Danny Elfman
yeah
Love this theme song! It's nice and creepy and fits the movie so well!
Beetlejuice (Original Motion Picture Score) Danny Elfman
Daylight come and me wan go HOOOMEE

For those who do not know, the first day o was danny Elfman singing it.
He has a nice voice ❤🎉
The music faster is better than the original!
So delightful so delightful
this soundtrack= the most beautiful thing ive ever heard

Ah, such an original movie and soundtrack!
And even though I usually hate sequels, I abashedly look forward to Beetlejuice 2.
One of my all time favorites!!!!
Classic.

Taffer20, it's called the Beetlejuice theme song and it's written by Danny Elfman.
This music is so evil, and yet so catchy.
Evil??
@exposed97 well, the original concept had beetlejuice as a murdering psychopath ghost rather than the clown he is. Some major rewriting was done to make him more humorous. I'm glad they did.
Happy anniversary to Beatles for 100 years
The music with the Geffen Logo is really epic for some reason.
ELFMAN + BURTON = GREAT MOVIE
The reason you and martinstatic remember that bit it's because it's been used in many trailers including the Casper movie.
A moving theme. Tugs at the heartstrings. :..(
EVEN in a higher pitch it's STILL epic! 😳☠️🎃😱🐍👻😌
I love how it sounds at 0:31 - 0:35
I watched this movie since I was like 5 and I still love it.
This movie was a trip!
This is a Classic Movie I love it.
And their STILL talking about doing a sequel lol! Whatever. I love these opening credits. Great music coupled with cool tracking shots of the town and then the spider crawling on the model home. Great stuff. :)
Beeteljuc beeteljuc beeteljuc!!!!!!!!!!!!pow its shoda
@SaftAusKeine
Totally. He's unique, even his critics have to give him that.
Who’s here because they played this music as Julia Louis-Dreyfus and Will Farrell walked out to present at the 2020 Oscars?
I love Beetlejuice! his is so funny!
Pls make ten hour of this
Anyone bop to this while cleaning your room? Just me?
It's not by Tim Burton...it is composed by Danny Elfman... I do think it is just referred to as the Beetlejuice Theme
Who did Alec Baldwin play? I saw a guy that kinda looked like him but it was the guy who played the Mayor in The Nightmare Before Christmas.
It has no name really. Its just the 'Beetlejuice Theme'
Whats the name of the song that play after the intro in the background??
Danny Elfman: music god.
fantastic music
my grandmother each this whole movie
I sure hope not. I heard a terrifying rumor that they are gonna remake short circuit. The sky is gonna fall!
slick transition @1:51
Am I thinking of another movie with similar music and camera over the town or is it this movie..
Love, love, love it!!!!
Dear Hollywood, please don't fuck up Beetlejuice by remaking it like you do everything else.
@cesarjimenezanimator
Glenn Shadix? He's in this movie too.
una intro realmente brutal!!!
Can anyone tell me the instraments used in this song?
Thanks
Way better then the terrible sequel.

@SuperWillHatch Yeah, but I already knew that wasn't Alec Baldwin. And I already know who Alec Baldwin is in this movie (he was tough to recognize).
If you enjoy this song you would like Bakom Varje Fura from Finntroll... lokk for it..
@joemac5367 exactly
Alec Baldwin used to be HOT!
He also used to seem like a decent, mentally-stable human being.
PAL format
I like this beginning but it seems sped up to me...my movie runs this beginning to its true self.....something is off here
2:21
The better version! Bluray version ruined the music.
Only thing I can tolerate Alec Baldwin in.
0:51 Get it? Cause he's in jail!
Doctor .the remake and
No
