Tim Burton is the father of Spooky™, I'm sure we can all agree. I remember being a little kid watching Edward Scissorhands for the first time and falling in love with the uncanniness of it all. Of course, Tim Burton's other movie hits such as Beetlejuice, the recently released sequel Beetlejuice Beetlejuice, Corpse Bride, and The Nightmare Before Christmas are all equally amazing.

Though, I'd be lying if I didn't say that the man with the scissors for hands has a special place in my heart. Nothing truly kicks off Spooktober like a Tim Burton film does, so we hope you're considering kicking back and relaxing after work today with a spooky movie from Halloween's favorite writer/director. If you're having trouble getting into the spooky spirit, it's only a matter of time before all popular streaming services recommend you films created by the Burt-meister. Films like Alice in Wonderland and Charlie and the Chocolate Factory might be your best bet if you're not a Halloween fanatic, but either way, Tim Burton is a cinematic mastermind.
