Beetlejuice (Michael Keaton) looking shocked in Beetlejuice Beetlejuice
There's something magical about Beetlejuice. Revisiting it for the first time in years made me wonder why my sister and I had it in such regular rotation throughout our childhood – turns out, it was all us. My parents' opinions on it ranged from lightly positive to fairly negative , but we couldn't get enough of it. And that makes sense to me. Beetlejuice is more than just creatively odd. It's whimsical enough to feel safe, but also sexual enough to feel dangerous.
Beetlejuice 2 Is A Legacy Sequel In All The Right Ways And I Hope Hollywood is paying attention Today's audiences are used to seeing once-beloved properties dug up and filled with hot air until their awkward, uncanny movements slightly resemble life, and Beetlejuice Beetlejuice is certainly guilty of cashing in on the nostalgia bubble before it pops. But going back to the well doesn't have to be a soulless exercise. Familiarity is an opportunity, when approached like one.
Familiar dynamics return, also distorted. Lydia's daughter, Astrid , loves the macabre, but she's not truly a loner. She'd probably be well-liked by her peers if it wasn't for being branded by her mother's celebrity. She detests Rory , her would-be step-father, but as the central couple, Rory and Lydia have none of the love of either the Maitlands or the Deetzes. .
But the Beetlejuice Beetlejuice cast is its lifeblood, and everyone was clearly feeding on whatever energy Burton was putting out on set. Faced with a much faster pace, the ensemble work in unison to keep the ball up comedically, and they fill their performances with as much weird characterization as the design approach demands.
