What are you talking about? They made a cartoon out of it. How could I forget that and Little Shop of Horrors?! Oh right, because my ---smurf--- of an ex stole them from me.

Michael Keaton says some very vulgar things. He drops the F bomb once or twice IIRC. Of course, when I saw it as a kid most of what he said never registered. Watching it as an adult (as with most 80's movies), I couldn't believe I saw these movies as a very young child.

Ginsu Victim:
I don't recall the F word in Beetlejuice at all.

F**k is said by Beetlejuice.

If you are having a public showing of a film for kids, you best play it safe and avoid that.

Bette Midler, for one.

Avoid it....because of one F word?

That site annoyed me. "Talk to your kids afterword. Ask them why they think Lydia was sad"

My parents never discussed any of that crap with me. I was smart enough to understand it's just entertainment.

BTW, don't bypass the auto-censor. Either say it and let it get censored, or just say "F bomb" or "F word".
