Description
We examine the ghost with the most with special guest star JENNA ORTEGA lookalike Lilly-Rose…
In this episode of Just That Film Podcast, we return to the Afterlife for Beetlejuice Beetlejuice (2024), Tim Burton’s long-awaited sequel to one of the most beloved supernatural comedies of all time.
Michael Keaton returns as the outrageously chaotic Beetlejuice, joined by Winona Ryder as Lydia Deetz and Catherine O’Hara as Delia Deetz, alongside newcomers Jenna Ortega, Justin Theroux, Monica Bellucci, Willem Dafoe, and Arthur Conti. More than 35 years after the original, the Ghost with the Most is back with another wildly imaginative adventure filled with gothic humour, bizarre creatures, and Burton’s unmistakable visual style.
We discuss Michael Keaton’s triumphant return, Jenna Ortega’s addition to the franchise, Danny Elfman’s score, Tim Burton’s direction, the film’s practical effects, and how it balances nostalgia with fresh ideas. We also compare it with the 1988 classic and ask whether this long-awaited sequel was worth the wait.
Does Beetlejuice Beetlejuice recapture the magic of the original, or does the first film still reign supreme?
