To escape from the Netherworld, Beetlejuice needs to get married to a living woman, and Goth teen Lydia is his chosen betrothed, something she is not too happy about.
After foiling resident ghosts Adam and Barbara's attempts to save Lydia, by saying Beetlejuice's name three times [which will banish him back to where he belongs], the Ghost With The Most seems certain to succeed with completing the wedding ceremony, as he finally finds the ring in his pocket.
But just then, Barbara manages to return to the house with backup: The Sandworm: a massive snakelike monster with a penchant for ghosts, and Beetlejuice is right in line to be its next meal. Beetlejuice has just enough time to shield himself in horror, as something far scarier than himself devours him and sends back into the netherworld.
As Beetlejuice is already dead, where else would he go but back to limbo? And judging from the ticket number he got stuck with, he's going to be there for awhile (provided he doesn't steal from anyone carrying tickets with lower numbers).
Off-topic but seems we just missed the devil on this forum! (check the number of posts)
Devoured, anyone?
"Cheating Death"? Although to be fair he was dead at the end.
SHou;dn't Barbara be listed as the killer? After all, tshe was riding the sandworm.
Pyro, you also forgot to mention where Barbara got the sandworm from.
"Beetlejuice" Was the name he "got" from a game of charades, it was really spelled Betelgeuse.
Erm IMDB list his name as Beetlejuice, and that is where we go to consult contentious issues.
Trivia: Betelgeuse is actually a star in the Orion constellation
Just look at the sign in his commercial and the business cards! Is there a rule about him not being able to spell his own name too
Monster & Animal anybody
Cheating death means chheated on his death means he wasn't dead he didn't die.
How about unique, cause I've never seen a film where an oversized worm with a fin and alien-like mouth was riden through a ceiling!
Sorry about the mood, though I have more to say.
1} It was funny when that witch docter shrunk his head.
2} I don't see why Lydia couldn't say Betelgeuse, Betelgeuse, Betelgeuse
3} They should have said Betelgeuse ALOT faster instead of going Betelgeuse...........Betelgeuse...........
4} The ticket achine thingy would not have said 3, cause there are people dying all the time.
I'm sorry for the negatives everyone, but I thought I should just point them out.
