Product Description The demonic comedy that put acclaimed film director Tim Burton firmly on the map. The Maitlands (Geena Davis and Alec Baldwin) are a happy couple who, when killed in a car crash, return as ghosts to their beloved home to wreak havoc on the ghastly yuppie family who have moved in. Being novices at haunting, their efforts go unnoticed by the house's new inhabitants except Goth daughter Lydia (Winona Ryder), who doesn't mind one bit. At their wit's end, the ghostly couple call on a despicably disgusting demon named 'Beetlejuice' (Michael Keaton) for help. From desertcart.co.uk Before making Batman, director Tim Burton and star Michael Keaton teamed up for this popular black comedy about a young couple (Geena Davis and Alec Baldwin) whose premature death leads them to a series of wildly bizarre afterlife exploits. As ghosts in their own New England home, they're faced with the challenge of scaring off the pretentious new owners (Catherine O'Hara and Jeffrey Jones), whose daughter (Winona Ryder) has an affinity for all things morbid. Keaton plays the mischievous Beetlejuice, a freelance "bio-exorcist" who's got an evil agenda behind his plot to help the young undead newlyweds. The film is a perfect vehicle for Burton's visual style and twisted imagination, with clever ideas and gags packed into every scene. Beetlejuice is also a showcase for Keaton, who tackles his title role with maniacal relish and a dark edge of menace.--Jeff Shannon Review: Good watch - Good film with the original cast Review: Just what was needed. - Really impressed with the film.

Not as great as I'd hoped
The film was good in places with funny touches, but not as good as the original. The acting was good from Michael Keaton and Winona Ryder, but Catherine O'Hara had lost the edge and energy she brought to the role in the original film. The performances could have been bigger from all the cast. The plot was ok in the second half, but slow and not very original or inventive in the first half. Wasn't feeling the pathos or emotional connection with the characters so didn't care about them r their fate as much as the Maitlands, which is what kept the stakes raised in the first film. It was good to be back in the Beetlejuice world, but after 36 years since I expected more. They had a huge budget and A LOT of time to develop this movie and write the script, so it really could have been better. Bit gutter really as I LOVED the first film and had been really looking forward to this sequel. Tim Burton seems to have generally lost his frenetic edge, his spin off Wednesday on Netflix was another example of a classic not having the same energy and exciting we saw from tis director i the 80s and 90s.

MUST WATCH!
Beetlejuice Beetlejuice" is a super fun trip back to a spooky, kooky world we loved! Michael Keaton is back as Beetlejuice, and he's just as wild and funny as before. It's great to see Winona Ryder as Lydia again too. This time, Lydia has a daughter named Astrid, played by Jenna Ortega, and she gets pulled into all the ghostly craziness. The movie feels a lot like the first one, with cool, weird visuals and a silly, spooky story. It’s not trying to be too serious, just a good time with some familiar faces and some new scares. If you liked the first "Beetlejuice," you'll probably have a blast with this one. It’s like visiting old friends, but with more slime and ghosts! It’s a funny, spooky ride that’s easy to enjoy.

Good movie to chill and relax to at the weekend
If like me you enjoyed the original Beatlejuice movie. This sequel wont disapoint. It has the humour of the first movie and good pacing. A solid movie to enjoy.

昔、劇場で鑑賞したが懐かしくて購入。 今観てもやっぱり面白い作品だと再認識した。 都市伝説の一つに、ある名前を三回唱えるとある事が起きるという話しを何かの雑誌で読んだが、「この作品から影響受けているのではないか」などと、考えたりもした。 (都市伝説という言葉はこの作品が劇場公開された時期にはまだなかったハズ)
