Our suggestions
Beetlejuice is back! After an unexpected family tragedy, three generations of the Deetz family return home to Winter River. Still haunted by Beetlejuice, Lydia's life is turned upside down when her rebellious teenage daughter, Astrid, discovers the mysterious model of the town in the attic and the portal to the Afterlife is accidentally opened. With trouble brewing in both realms, it's only a matter of time until someone says Beetlejuice's name three times and the mischievous demon returns to unleash his very own brand of mayhem.
"Beetlejuice Beetlejuice is the long-awaited sequel that hit theaters more than 35 years after the original. The story continues with the Deetz family, but a lot has changed. For starters, Lydia (Winona Ryder) has grown up and now talks about hauntings on TV. The father (Jeffrey Jones) has passed away, the mother (Catherine O'Hara) is now an experimental artist, and there's a new member: the granddaughter/daughter Astrid (Jenna Ortega). With this new dynamic, filmmaker Tim Burton brings his style back to the forefront—this is the most Tim Burton-esque film since Frankenweenie in 2012. Michael Keaton is excellent once again as the demon who haunts the Deetz family, and now the world of the dead is explored more: both in terms of dynamics and new characters. It's hard not to enjoy Willem Dafoe's exaggerated police officer or the beloved Bob, for example. It's a harmless film that gets a little tangled up toward the end, unsure of which narrative to follow, but it entertains with its honesty: expect to laugh, have fun, and feel a good dose of nostalgia."
