I�ve read the word "bejesus" in a critic about a new film and I couldn�t find out its meaning. Can anyone help me? |

"Bejesus" is a mild blasphemy. It means "By jesus".
It is often used like this. "I saw a Stephen King horror movie; it scared the bejesus out of me."
It means the movie really scared me. |
