The Beetlejuice Spoilers for “Beetlejuice”! Let’s examine that amazing, imaginative cameo

Spoiler alert! We’re discussing major plot points and the ending of “Beetlejuice Beetlejuice” currently in theaters so if you haven’t seen it, beware.

You know Baby Yoda. Now meet Baby Beetlejuice.

Enter the new sequel, “Beetlejuice Beetlejuice,” wherein a maniacal infant version is unleashed in its mischievous concept as director Tim Burton revisits that macabre world he created with such hilarious nuance in that iconic 1988 horror-comedy.

Of course, Beetlejuice is back and so is Lydia Deetz, Winona Ryder’s teen goth girl whom Beetlejuice haunted back in the day.

He’s still pursuing her decades later, and she even signs the paperwork for their wedding in return for his assistance: Taken to the Afterlife, her daughter Astrid (Jenna Ortega) is duped into selling her soul to the evil ghost kid Jeremy (Arthur Conti).

As he is being sought after by his resentful ex-wife Delores (Monica Bellucci) and Afterlife top cop Wolf Jackson (Willem Dafoe), Beetlejuice’s problems overlap with theirs.

Let’s discuss the film’s exciting finale, fascinating cameos, and—yes—Baby Beetlejuice.

What transpires in “Beetlejuice Beetlejuice”‘s conclusion?

Lydia travels through the Afterlife with Beetlejuice to locate her daughter, and Astrid escapes her predicament with the help of the “ghost with the most” and her cherished deceased father (Santiago Cabrera), a piranha-clad civil officer in the afterlife.

However, Lydia must marry Beetlejuice in the real world because she saved Astrid, so she ends up to the chapel where she is meant to wed her obnoxious manager Rory (Justin Theroux).

When Delores appears, Rory reveals himself to be a gold-digging jerk, and everyone starts dancing in a crazy sequence set to “MacArthur Park.”

A sandworm intervenes to save the day and devours Rory and Delores as the realms of the living and the dead collide. Astrid discovers a way to legally annul her mother’s marriage contract to Beetlejuice, which causes Beetlejuice to burst like a balloon and likely return to the Afterlife.

Over the years, Danny DeVito has worked with Burton frequently, starring as the Penguin in films such as “Dumbo,” “Big Fish,” and “Batman Returns.”

In the opening scene of the “Beetlejuice” sequel, he plays a brief part as a zombie janitor in the Afterlife who is sucked out of his soul by Delores.

Yet the most interesting of the subsidiary personalities is a face that’s familiar-a head, in fact-that isn’t there. Jeffrey Jones played Lydia’s bird-watching father Charles Deetz in the original “Beetlejuice,”

Burton gets creative in the sequel and brings back the character sans the actor who played him-and who is now a convicted sex offender.

Charles dies in a combination plane crash/shark-eating incident, and his death serves as the plot point that reunites Lydia, Astrid and Lydia’s stepmom Delia following some time of emotional distance between them.

As Delia mourns in her very artsy way, Charles-headless and with a gurgly voice that sounds sort of like Jones-ends up in the Afterlife. They cross paths but don’t notice each other after Delia dies courtesy of an accidental snake bite, but the odd couple ends up with a happy ending as they get on a soul train to heaven together.

Is there a post-credits scene in ‘Beetlejuice Beetlejuice’?

As mentioned, the movie doesn’t have any sequences set during or after the credits. This is hardly shocking because Tim Burton rarely produces those.

Nope! However, the concluding sequence lays the groundwork for a potential third movie. Following Astrid’s rescue, a time-hopping montage features her and Lydia traveling, with the daughter discovering love overseas and eventually getting married.

Astrid is giving birth in a hospital when Baby Beetlejuice appears. This animated prick was previously revealed as one of Beetlejuice’s bizarre antics when he pretended to be a psychiatrist for Lydia and Rory.
