Blu-ray Review – Nothing But Trouble

Warner Brothers went hunting for another kooky, crazy horror-esque comedy with 1991's "Nothing but Trouble," hoping to deliver another "Beetlejuice" with its blend of nightmarish imagery and slapstick encounters.

What eventually made its way to theaters is a feature that's certainly out of its mind, with Aykroyd manufacturing a bizarre endeavor that revels in weirdness, offering unsettling extremity with what appears to be the helmer's idea of a live-action cartoon.
