After 36 years since the great premiere of Beetlejuice, the horror comedy continues to be one of the biggest trends, especially with the arrival of its long-awaited sequel, which will feature multiple actors returning.
Michael Keaton and Winona Ryder are two of them, who previously brought to life the popular mischievous and crude ghost known as the “bio-exorcist”, and Lydia. Released in 1988, it has since become a cult classic.
The movie was characterized by its unique blend of black humor, imaginative visuals and quirky characters, which are typical of the distinctive style of Tim Burton, the director in charge of both installments.
