The #VeniceFilmFestival buzzed with excitement as #TimBurton's highly anticipated sequel, "Beetlejuice Beetlejuice," made its world premiere. Fans of the 1988 classic and new audiences alike packed the Palazzo del Cinema, eager to see if the ghost with the most could still deliver the goods. Spoiler alert: he can.

Michael Keaton, reprising his role as the mischievous bio-exorcist, was met with cheers as he walked the red carpet. Alongside him were Winona Ryder, back as the now-adult Lydia Deetz, and #JennaOrtega, playing Lydia's daughter, who finds herself tangled up in her own supernatural misadventures.

After the morning screening, the press conference was abuzz with questions about how Burton managed to recapture the unique mix of dark humor and quirky horror that made the original a cult favorite. Burton, in his usual understated style, credited the "amazing team" of cast and crew for bringing his vision to life. "It's all about embracing the weirdness," he said, a comment that could easily sum up the film itself.

Michael Keaton’s return as Beetlejuice was the highlight for many. His energy was described as "infectious" by one attendee, with the actor clearly relishing his return to one of his most iconic roles. Winona Ryder, too, was praised for her portrayal of a more mature Lydia, still haunted by her past encounters with the netherworld.

Newcomer Jenna Ortega was a standout, with Burton calling her a "perfect fit" for the role. Her character adds a fresh perspective, balancing the nostalgia with a contemporary twist. Willem Dafoe and Monica Bellucci also impressed in their roles, adding depth and a bit of menace to the supernatural proceedings.

The reaction from the audience and critics was overwhelmingly positive. The film’s blend of practical effects and modern technology brought Burton’s bizarre world to life in a way that felt both familiar and fresh. The humor—sharp, irreverent, and a little twisted—had the audience laughing throughout.

As the festival continues, it is clear that "Beetlejuice Beetlejuice" has struck a chord. Not just a trip down memory lane, this sequel breathed new life into an old favorite, proving that some spirits never fade—they just get funnier with age.
