According to Short, Beetlejuice's timeless visuals can be boiled down to what he describes as 'lightning in a bottle': the perfect combination of budget restraints, dedication to practical effects, and stellar team members that resulted in a one-of-a-kind creative environment.
Beetlejuice is back in the spotlight thanks to Warner Bros. Pictures' release of Beetlejuice Beetlejuice, the sequel to the original film, which is currently doing numbers at the box office.
Nearly all of the most iconic scenes from the original film involve some feat of practical effects, which remarkably still hold up nearly 40 years later.
Short won an Oscar for Best Makeup on Beetlejuice, which showcases the artistry and the painstaking effort that went into creating memorable and iconic moments in the film.
