“We are honored to build on our long-standing partnership with Coca-Cola products through our own exclusive Island Punch and a host of offerings that so seamlessly enhance our guest experience,” said Kyler Kokubun, marketing and events manager for Consolidated Theatres. “Following a closer look with our friends at Coca-Cola at some of the most in-demand flavors across our theater locations, we’ve landed on the perfect punch to complement our classic movie concessions and chef-curated offerings. We’re excited to invite guests to enjoy our new flavor, personalize their own creations, and join us for all the BEETLEJUICE BEETLEJUICE thrills.”

Consolidated Theatres will additionally conjure up a spirited movie menu especially for the release of the film, with more details on the mouthwatering lineup materializing soon! From the creative mind of director Tim Burton, and starring Michael Keaton (Beetlejuice), Winona Ryder (Lydia), Catherine O’Hara (Delia) and Jenna Ortega (Astrid), BEETLEJUICE BEETLEJUICE finds Lydia’s life turned upside down when her rebellious teenage daughter, Astrid, discovers a mysterious model of the town of Winter River 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 own brand of mayhem! The film is rated PG-13.
