Was that Italian that Beetle Juice was speaking when he showed that movie?
shareSÌ!
shareWhy?
shareThe joke was supposed to be that the flashback was done in the style of an old Italian horror film.
shareAnd the great Monica Belluucci is Italian!
shareWell yeah that too but if Tim Burton was still with Helena Bonham Carter, she'd have played that part and it would've probably still been the same.
It was an homage to the Italian Gothic Horror Black Sunday by Mario Bava that Burton's a big fan of and wanted to remake at one point.
