Thirty-six years ago, the original Beetlejuice kicked the door down with its fantastical design, oddball charm, dark humor, and one hell of a performance by Michael Keaton, who played the title character. Since then, we have had a cartoon and Broadway musical based upon everyone’s favorite demon. Over the course of the near forty-year gap between the first one and the new film Beetlejuice Beetlejuice, there have been talks about a sequel, but no one ever took it seriously. Apparently, when signing on to Stranger Things, Winona Ryder’s contract specifically said that if the film did go forth with a sequel, that she would be granted the time off, just in case it did happen. Well, now that the new film has released, this maybe one of the reasons why the new season of her hit Netflix show is taking so long. So, was it worth the wait?
