Beetlejuice Beetlejuice Beetle... ASS! Man, talk about not even trying... what a poor excuse for a Beetlejuice game we got. This is the kind of NES title we bought and after about 5 minutes playing it realised we'd made a horrible mistake but were too poor, lazy or stubborn to do something about it so we just sat there and tried our best to finish a game we resented from the start for being nothing like the movie and being barely playable to begin with. Hey, remember that scene in Beetlejuice when he comes across a giant shark-infested bathtub? Right? And remember those upside down umbrellas shooting laser beams and how Beetlejuice really got hurt every time he would touch a fiery torch? Of course you don't. That's some LJN bullshit right there. Now I'm not saying that movie-based video games should follow the original films to the letter but making up random shit just to make a speedy game release less of a hassle is just not good enough.
