Now its time to look at the very best movie characters from the 80's decade (1980-1989).Not the nicest guy in the world but you got to respect a guy who comes from nothing and is willing to do anything to get to the top by any means necessary and who could forget his many one liners.
If anybody could play a complete nut job on screen it would have to be Jack Nicholson who for him in this movie was just another day at the office.
Possibly no other actor could have pulled this role of any better than the late Lee Ermey as the brutal and at times hilarious Sergeant Hartman.
Though his name is actually Betelgeuse though pronounced Beetlejuice he was a pretty over the top and very entertaining villain surprisingly not played by Johnny Deep who's been in more Tim Burton movies than anyone else brought to life by none other than Michael Keaton who would go on to play Batman.
Robert England brought a certain charm and and special brand charisma that Jackie Earle Haley just couldn't compete with.
One of Eddie Murphy's funniest movie roles.
