Beetlejuice Audiences were introduced to the main character, a mischievous ghost who wreaks havoc in the afterlife and the world of the living, but one wild theory suggests that Beetlejuice doesn’t die for most of the movie.Tim Burton has shared his unique take on horror and comedy in films since the 1980s, with the horror comedy being one of his most popular and beloved works Beetlejuicestarring Geena Davis, Alec Baldwin, Winona Ryder and Michael Keaton.
Beetlejuice It follows a young couple, Barbara (Davies) and Adam Maitland (Baldwin), who are involved in an accident on their way back to their country house and die…unbeknownst to them that they are dead. The Maitlands’ house was later bought by the Deeds family, but as the Maitlands were unable to leave the house for the next 125 years, they had to get rid of the Deeds – however, they were married to their daughter Leigh Dia (Ryder) becomes friends. , which makes it harder to kick them out. Desperate for a solution, the Maitlands summon Beetlejuice (Keaton) to get rid of the Deeds, but he causes more trouble for them, Lydia and her parents. Beetlejuice is undoubtedly a corpse as his appearance has decayed, but one theory claims that he is not dead, he is simply trapped in the afterlife.
How Beetlejuice’s Afterlife Works
Beetlejuice Following the idea of life after death, it looks a lot like some of the most annoying parts of the world of the living, albeit with a sinister twist.afterlife in the universe Beetlejuice Known as the “Not World,” it’s an exaggerated and dark version of the world of the living, structured around a complex bureaucracy through which the recently deceased must go. The recently deceased find themselves in a “nowhere” waiting room run by civil servants (from what is shown in the film, these are the ones who committed suicide), where new ghosts meet their afterlife social workers Or make an appointment.
It’s unclear what happens to the other ghosts after their meeting with the caseworker, but in the Maitlands’ case, they were told they couldn’t leave the house for over a century and it was up to them to deal with the Diets, and They were also told that they were warned about summoning Beetlejuice, but they apparently didn’t care.
Theory: Beetle juice is actually alive
Theory published in Reddit Based on how the Netherworld works and how Beetlejuice and his backstory are presented, it’s explained that Beetlejuice doesn’t die until the end of the movie.at the end of Beetlejuice, the protagonist is eaten by sandworms and ends up in a waiting room where he has to wait a long, long time to see his social worker. The author of the theory explained that if Beetlejuice was already dead, being eaten by sandworms wouldn’t be a big deal to him and wouldn’t be sent to the waiting room, so it’s likely that Beetlejuice was still alive at that point.
The author goes on to point out that Adam and Barbara had to dig Beetlejuice out of the grave, and he was stuck there until someone said his name three times. While it’s understood he’s trapped there so he won’t cause trouble everywhere, theories suggest he’s trapped there by the authority of the void world.its interpretation is Beetlejuice The character was once Juno’s assistant, so she could be the one who caused him to be trapped in the afterlife. Well, Beetlejuice is a living person who enters the void (not surprising since humans like Lydia can see and interact with the dead), and considering Juno is in a high position of authority, she might Finding him wandering around and knowing he had to be contained, she kept him with her as an assistant until he got into trouble, so she was responsible for him being trapped in the void.
The author adds that Beetlejuice is not truly trustworthy, as evidenced by his contradictory statements throughout the film. Beetlejuice actually told the Maitlands that they “Talk to a dead man!’, but he also mentions going to the Juilliard School (founded in 1905) and experiencing the Black Death (1348-1350), so he’s not reliable at all, further supporting this theory.
How this theory changed Beetlejuice (and could it?)
If Beetlejuice was alive for most of his movie, that would make him a victim rather than a demented ghost, and the villain/antagonist from the afterlife would be Juno and his companions (and possibly in the process drive him crazy). This theory also sheds new light on Beetlejuice’s attempt to escape the afterlife, as he almost married Lydia, as they were an honest and desperate attempt to return to his world. As interesting as the theory is, it’s unlikely that Beetlejuice was alive before being eaten by sandworms, and his contradictory statements are just part of his personality and a way of showing that he really isn’t to be trusted. As for why he ended up in the waiting room, that could just be part of the “second death” process, but it’ll be interesting to see what happens to Beetlejuice after he meets his social worker.
