Directed by Tim Burton; starring Jenna Ortega, Michael Keaton, Willem Dafoe, Winona Ryder, and Catherine O’Hara Beetlejuice Beetlejuice is a follow-up to 1988’s comedy/fantasy hit film, Beetlejuice.

The original film was about a rollicking ghost hired to help haunt a house.

Beetlejuice (1988) is one of those movie titles I’m aware of. But, before this post, if I’d been asked to explain what the film is about, all I’d have for you is: ‘Michael Keaton, a black and white striped outfit, crazy green hair and Tim Burton.’ I may even have uttered the words: ‘Sort of like Edward Scissorhands(?)’ which I’m quite certain would be very incorrect.

I know little about the original movie because I’ve probably never seen it. However, I’m interested because the original was clearly well received, plus, Ortega’s involvement is a highlight, as is the peculiarity of ‘the Juice‘ himself.

What’s your history with Beetlejuice? How familiar are you with the original movie and are you curious about this continuation?

Justin Theroux, Burn Gorman, Gianni Calchetti, James Fisher, Juliana Yazbeck, Filipe Cates, Travis Campbell, Leah Perkins, Christopher C. James and Tim Kavanagh also star.
