River Donaghey grew up in a cult. Or at least that’s what some people called it. His parents called it a “personal-growth seminar group.” Its leader called it “one big happy family.” But there was a dark side to the world River grew up in. One he never heard about as a kid. In the 1970s and 80s, a self-help company called Lifespring took America by storm.

In this episode, we (sand)worm into the fascinating world of "Beetlejuice," the iconic 1988 film that turned the haunted house trope on its head. Join us as we explore the origins, behind-the-scenes trivia, and lasting impact of this darkly comedic masterpiece.
"Beetlejuice" emerged as a reverse narrative to the popular horror film "Poltergeist," where instead of a ghostly entity terrorizing a family, it's the human family causing chaos among the deceased. The movie, directed by Tim Burton and featuring Michael Keaton's memorable performance as the mischievous Betelgeuse, became a cult classic and a box office success. (Sucks Yes!)
We delve into the film's production and fun facts, including Tim Burton's initial struggles to convince the cast to embrace the quirky and bizarre nature of the story. Did you know that the title character, despite his lasting impact, has only about 14.5 minutes of screen time?
From the film's unique visual style inspired by B movie special effects, "Beetlejuice" remains a timeless blend of horror, comedy, and "dirty old man". We also discuss the proposed sequel, "Beetlejuice Goes Hawaiian," which never materialized but had fans buzzing with curiosity.
Join us as we unravel the mysteries, fun facts, and enduring legacy of "Beetlejuice," a film that continues to enchant audiences across generations.
This week we introduced you to our friends from Live Laugh Larceny: A True Petty Crime Podcast!
