ORIGIN: Betelgeuse was an independent poltergeist specializing in "bio-exorcism"—the art of banishing the living occupants of a house. He can only be resurrected by manually traveling to a small scale model of the town of Winter River and being exhumed from his grave. If hired by his employers, he can be summoned instantly by reciting his name three times in a row. Betelgeuse's birth and death dates are unknown, but it is known from context that he died long ago and has been enjoying his afterlife for what has likely been centuries.
DESCRIPTION: A pale, thin man with unruly greenish hair, darkened eye sockets, and rotten teeth. He wears various outfits, though his most characteristic consists of black and white striped trousers paired with a blazer over a white shirt with a black tie and blackened boots. He possesses a wild, filthy, opportunistic, and indecent personality.
WEAPONS: Supernatural powers.
FAMOUS QUOTES:
- Ah. Well... I attended Juilliard... I graduated from Harvard Business School. I travel quite a bit. I lived through the Black Death and had a pretty good time during that period. I'VE SEEN «THE EXORCIST» ABOUT ONE HUNDRED AND SIXTY-SEVEN TIMES, AND EVERY TIME I SEE IT, IT GETS FUNNIER... NOT TO MENTION THE FACT THAT YOU'RE TALKING TO A DEAD GUY... NOW, WHAT DO YOU THINK? Do you think I'm qualified?

Película destacable de Tim Burton con un Michael Keaton único en su encarnación de Beetlejuice. Considero que este personaje icónico es el Torrente de los fantasmas, el cual inspira rechazo y simpatía a la vez.
La trama (unos muertos que contratan a un inefable fantasma para asustar a los vivos) está bien resuelta e interpretada por un buen elenco.
Mención especial para la banda sonora y sobre todo para la escena divertidísima con "The banana boat song", de Harry Belafonte.
Michael Keaton interpretó un personaje icónico; divertido y gamberro.
La unión Keaton-Burton, fue el comienzo de una prometedora carrera para ambos.
Siempre quedé con ganas de una continuación, aunque pudimos disfrutar de una serie animada, pero nada que ver.
