Beetlejuice Beetlejuice Review: Tim Burton’s Return To The Afterlife Is A Hysterical And Heartfelt Return To Form

Film News

Any time a movie like Beetlejuice Beetlejuice is announced, fans of the original are usually the first to ask a question familiar to anyone who’s worked on a legacyquel: “Why?” With several decades passing since director Tim Burton’s horror-comedy blockbuster struck it big, the many false starts of this return trip to the afterlife have only upped the ante of anticipation. Now that the hour is finally upon us, I can gladly say that those of you who never said die on a Beetlejuice sequel will not be disappointed, as Burton and company’s love and respect for the 1988 original is shown off in every fiber of this tale. It’s a great example of understanding why that movie worked and how to bring it back for a new generation to behold.

There’s a refreshing lack of overthinking when it comes to how Beetlejuice Beetlejuice picks up the torch. Lydia Deetz (Winona Ryder) is hosting her own TV show focused on (what else) ghost hunting. An enterprising boyfriend/producer (Justin Theroux) encourages her, and she has a daughter, Astrid (Jenna Ortega) who thinks she’s a fraud… and it ends up being the worst time in the world for a death in the family to send our strange and unusual protagonist back home.
