This second trailer is loaded with new footage we haven’t seen before, packed with practical effects and armed with that classic Tim Burton whimsy that made us fall in love with the quirky filmmaker in the first place. We’re thinking Burton is back, and we love to see it.

We had been promised that the upcoming sequel would be relying on old school handcrafted effects as much as possible, and this second trailer makes it clear that Burton is most definitely getting back to his roots with Beetlejuice Beetlejuice. Everything on display here feels like classic Beetlejuice, with Burton employing practical effects and stop motion techniques.

Beetlejuice Beetlejuice is officially rated “PG-13” for “Violent content, macabre and bloody images, strong language, some suggestive material and brief drug use.”

Michael Keaton stars alongside Winona Ryder in this year’s sequel, with the cast also including Jenna Ortega, Catherine O’Hara, Willem Dafoe and Monica Bellucci.

Here’s the official plot synopsis: “After an unexpected family tragedy, three generations of the Deetz family return home to Winter River. Still haunted by Beetlejuice, Lydia’s life is turned upside down when her rebellious teenage daughter, Astrid, discovers the mysterious model of the town in the attic and the portal to the Afterlife is accidentally opened. With trouble brewing in both realms, it’s only a matter of time until someone says Beetlejuice’s name three times and the mischievous demon returns to unleash his very own brand of mayhem.”

The original classic was directed by Tim Burton in 1988 and has become a cult favorite. It starred Alec Baldwin and Geena Davis as ghosts who haunt their old home. When a little girl (Winona Ryder) accidentally unleashes a mischievous ghost (Michael Keaton), the ghosts try to drive the homeowners (Catherine O’Hara and Jeffrey Jones) out of the house.
