An Honest Trailer for Beetlejuice

Why would Screen Junkies go back 36 years to do an Honest Trailer for Beetlejuice? Because the sequel is finally going to hit theaters this weekend. Beetlejuice Beetlejuice premiered at the 81st Venice International Film Festival on August 28th, and so far has garnered "generally favorable" reviews from critics. That could mean anything, since the original received mixed reviews and became a beloved cultural touchstone. Still, it's hard for any sequel to measure up to the original. The 1988 horror-comedy was ultra bizarre, but that was the point. This Honest Trailer will remind you of what Beetlejuice is all about and give you an anchor for comparison when you see the sequel this weekend.
