This one features interactive lights, smoke effects, and extra greeblies to make it his own personal version of the iconic prop.

A Horror Movie Written By Bots

They made a bot watch over 400,000 hours of horror movies (but not really), and this is what it came up with. In case you don't get how this bit works, everything is intentionally written to sound like it has been created by bots in the worst way possible, and the animation makes it even better.
Tim Burton Wanted Sammy Davis Jr. For Beetlejuice
Finally, Team Coco posted a throwback clip from "Late Night with Conan O'Brien" when director Tim Burton stopped by while on the publicity tour for "Sleepy Hollow."
