The original Beetlejuice movie was a huge box-office success. The story revolved around the spirits of a deceased couple who are harassed by an unbearable family that has moved into their home, hiring a malicious spirit of the same name (played by Keaton) to drive them out. The movie did wonders for Warner Bros as it won an Academy Award for Best Makeup the following year. The sequel will hit theatres on September 6, 2024.
