The follow-up to a successful genre film is tricky terrain…some get it right, and often things go horribly wrong. AOTKP tackles the first sequel to a number of films, from the obvious to the obscure, picking at the bones of horrific number twos.

I can't believe that Psycho 2 was so universally panned but everyone seemed to like The Fly 2. I'm just the opposite. I thought The Fly 2 sucked rhino balls, but Psycho 2 was decent enough. Some fairly gory moments, decent story. Of course, nowhere near the caliber of the original (which I watched while carving a jack-o-lantern the night before getting married on Halloween), but definitely worth a watch or two.
ReplyDeleteI also thought Phantasm 2 was pretty solid. Can't say much for 3 or 4.
