The Maitland's have their dream Connecticut home. The only people is they are dead and haunting their former abode instead of living in it. Then the Deetz's move in. The Deetz's are snobs, full of notions and start changing everything the Maitland's loved about their house. So they decide to do something about it. And it all starts during a dinner party. With the Banana Boat Song.
Brilliant. Just brilliant. The Maitland's attempt to scare away the Deetz's using the music of Harry Belafonte gives us a perfect pairing of sound and vision and the cast sells it completely from Catherine O'Hara and her opening salvo to the climactic prawn cocktail attack.
