Abducted II - The Reunion (1994)

[Wence]

Ever seen a horny wood gnome in sort of a silly-fur-costume, looking like a mad bum, behaving extremely embarassing and wearing a (no joke) FERRET-DIADEM ?

Then you should watch one of the most funny canadian b-movies - ABDUCTED 2!

Story:
While on camping three girls get attacked by a north-american form of Tarzan (a poor nerd gets killed). Then he forces the girls to go with him to his secret hole in the forest.
One girl escapes and, instead of calling police, dresses her up like Rambo (with the intention to free her friends).
She manages to free one of them, while the third becomes interested on the forest-freak (he´s a real man!, he kows what he wants! etc).
In a final showdown - a karate/boxing/wrestling-showdown between the gnome and the Rambo-Woman (plus a shoot-out with arriving poachers) - the gnome gets killed. [One of the poachers is the wood gnomes father (they tried to combine this crappy plot with a father-son-conflict!]

What really made me laugh:
- the behaviour of the forestman
- his clothing (again: FERRET-DIADEM!!!)
- the absolutely exaggerated dialogues (especially what the gnome is saying - you won´t believe all the crap)
- Rambo-Woman

It´s not a (very) violent film, so one can just sit back and have big fun!

Has anyone seen it?

I own this movie, but haven't seen it yet.  The reason I picked it up is because it has one of my favorite back cover blurbs of all time.  Here it is:

"Maria removes her blouse, slowly, carefully.  In the glow of campfire, in the presence of her two best friends, her body feels relaxed, safe.  But, in the woods, behind the trees, eyes are watching her... wanting... waiting for the right moment to take her.

Welcome to Harmony Lake -- where the scenery is beautiful and the vacations are hell.  Three beatuiful women venture deep into the wilderness to hold a yearly reunion.  But an idyllic camping trip turns into a terrifying fight for their lives... where the unseen is their worst enemy... where the unknown is there only chance.

Move by move, trap by trap , they have to summon all their survival skills to stay one step ahead of the murderous Vern from the original ABDUCTED.  Their final confrontation, on a jagged cliff, leads to a harrowing hand-to-hand duel -- revealing an explosive secret that can destroy them all!"

That first paragraph makes me laugh everytime I see it.

I'm fairly sure I saw parts of this a few times on TV, but all I remember was seeing Dan Haggerty (and his hair plugs since he was appearing in an infomerical about them around the same time) and Jan-Michael Vincent (who I should find sad and pathetic but I'm entertained by his drunken misbegotten life) in career freefall. That and realizing that I had never heard of the first film.

One review on www.imdb.com reports about "awesome chase scenes" and recommends ABDUCTED Part I
- seems that even the first Abducted-Movie hat a certain unwilling fun-factor.

But I must admit that I haven´t seen the first movie, too.

Here on german TV this film was and will never be casted (this I know for sure).
