The fizzy drink brand has brought out a special 'Beetlejuice' Fanta inspired by the classic 1988 movie - but not everyone is convinced it was necessary.

Fanta brand manager Hannah Lauri - who works at the Coca-Cola Company - has branded the new Afterlife Zero Sugar drink as "unmissable".

However, one fan on Reddit wrote: "I tried this and thought it was absolutely awful."

Someone else agreed: "You're 100 percent right. One of the worst sodas I ever tried. And I bought two because I usually love apple flavour drinks."

While a third fumed: "It tasted like how an apple-scented candle smells. Waxy, medicine-ee, and just plain bad lol."

Other people were impressed, with a different customer saying: "I like it. It reminds me of big red, but with a slight spice flavour."

While another Reddit user wrote: "Was having a conversation about Fanta the other day with a buddy and I ended up looking up the Fanta brand and read about this new flavour.

"It sounded rly interesting, but questionable. Really wanted to try it."
