Beetlejuice Beetlejuice

 You know, I just noticed the spelling of the movie was different than what I learned growing up. I learned "Betelgeuse" not "Beetlejuice" but yeah, that's pretty funny. So was this movie. This 2nd installment finds Lydia, played by "Stranger Things" very own Winona Ryder all grown up and living the dream as a very popular supernational TV talk show host with a daughter, played by "Wednesday" herself, Jenna Ortega. Delia, played by Catherine O'Hara, tries to be the glue to her stepdaughter and grand stepdaughter and of course, reap the benefits of Lydia's popularity. But dreams start plaguing Lydia and the passing of her husband, Charles, conjures up a lot of things. One of those "things" is Beetlejuice. Beetlejuice has his own problems and wants to get out of a contract that he has with Dolores, played by Monica Bellucci. Beetlejuice needs Lydia, Lydia needs Beetlejuice and Astrid wants to see her father again. So much goin
