What happens

Bill & Ted's Bogus Journey is a 1991 American science fiction comedy film, and the feature directorial debut of Pete Hewitt. It is the second film in the Bill & Ted franchise, and a sequel to Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure (1989). Keanu Reeves, Alex Winter and George Carlin reprise their roles. The film, which partially spoofs The Seventh Seal, received mixed reviews from critics and grossed slightly less than its predecessor, but has since gained a cult following. The film's original working title was Bill & Ted Go to Hell, and the film's soundtrack featured the song "Go to Hell" by Megadeth, which Dave Mustaine wrote for the film. The third movie in the franchise, Bill & Ted Face the Music, was released 29 years later in August 2020, with Reeves, Winter, William Sadler, Amy Stoch and Hal Landon Jr. reprising their roles.
