This week we’re diving into the afterlife with Beetlejuice (1988). We lay out the plans for our 2023 Spooky Season festivities, explore the movie's monumental impact on pop culture, and unpack its unique blend of chills and chuckles. In this episode's free-side, we speculate what Beetlejuice 2 will be like, unearth long-forgotten sequels, and debate which horror legends would square up with Beetlejuice. This episode contains spoilers, beginning at 51:42.
