The only movie in this series that is worth watching is the first one. I have not seen the second one. Believe it or not, I had a dream one night in which I was being chased by a gun-wielding Santa Claus!
After Billy's parents were killed in the first one, that scene ends with baby Ricky crying and nothing else. Whatever did happen to the sicko in the Santa suit who killed them? Was he shot dead by the police or did he get sent to a mental institution like Billy's grandpa?
A better plot for this movie would have to be the now-grown Ricky staying in a mental institution, unaware that the guy living in the room next to his is the guy who killed his parents. In other words, the Santa killer escapes, and when Ricky reads about his killing spree, he snaps big-time, puts on a Santa suit ala his late brother and engages in a gore-happy showdown with the Santa killer at the end. That would have been far more interesting than watching all that flashback footage!
This movie was lame, mostly rehash of part 1. It was Hilarious though, I'm surprised Andrew didn't mention Eric Freemans (Rickys) hilarious acting skills.
To the 'filmmakers' responsible for this...NAUGHTY! We should PUNISH you!!!
Actually I should thank them, my best friend and I checked this out and had a little MST3K party at its expense. When my jaw wasn't hanging from the insane amount of flashback material Ricky related about his brother's spree, I was laughing at the silliness of the new wraparound story. A classic bad movie, but one that is just a tad too painful for frequent exposure to.
This film was a very lame "tale of torture" for me and my wife Rebecca. This (worst!!!) piece of crap is only for some f***** school kids, not for me and every person above 25yrs.And believe me, it's much more horrible and terrible watching my wife cooking!!!!!!
I have seen this movie and feel that i must raise some issues
1 Why was half the movie all flashbacks of one? if any horror movie fan saw the orignal then seeing the old footage is more fun then the rest of the film
2 I'm surprised that the lady who's boyfriend killed was not sickened by his rather gruesome death(blood,guts and brains everywhere and he would smell lovely and she breathing in this gunk and not being affeted by it
3 There should have been a lot more blood or even guts on the umbrella that ricky impaled the a***ole with even before the rain(not even any blood mouth or even a wet duck sould as he drowned on his blood)
4 Why the freedy kruger wishcracks? billy never did them and he only punished naughty people his brother has no restrant and only carrys on like a freddy wannabe
5 And if so why don't they put Eric in a decent films(He has notbeen in any more films and if he has E-mail me
The reason why the movie had flashback footage is because the director/editor and the writer were given the first film and told to recut it because it was going to be re-released. They wanted to make a new movie out of it, though, thats why they used the flashback footage. They also wanted to poke fun at the first film, its all on the directors commentary for Part 2 on the DVD.
When they make a sequil to a realy bad movie its beyond explanation i wonder if their not trying to regain the money lost on their first?
The "Garbage Day" scene is the only part of this movie worth watching. To this day I can't put out my garbage without laughing (or wearing a bullet proof vest).
Not the most inspired slasher film of all time, but jawdroppingly hilarious entertainment! Granted, way too much footage from the previous entry, but it just makes me wish to God that filmmakers could've used more of their own footage. You can laugh at Eric Freeman all you want. He made this movie for me and it would be unwatchable without him. He's so committed (the wildly dancing eyebrows!) and over-the-top at every moment that he completely won me over. The strangulation of the girlfriend, Eric's stunning array of dazed facial expressions, the demented howls of "Punish!", the beyond-gratuitous shooting spree-- it all just left me staring at the screen in absolute disbelief. The shootout segment is so burned into my subconscious that even now when the garbage truck pulls up outside my building to empty the dumpsters, the savage cry of "Garbage Day!" immediately calls out in my mind.
I'm surprised that Eric Freeman's eyebrows weren't mentioned as a character. If you watch the movie, you discover that his eyebrows do more acting than any other character on film.
Also, I find it awesome that strokes melt people's faces. That's rad.
when i was lilttle i'd say he was my hero haha
"Garbage Day!" I laughed until I cried the first time I saw that bit! Thanks badmovies.org for giving me an introduction to this film. Its also good to see that despite being retired, Mother Superior gets about her home in full nun uniform, thats devotion! I also enjoyed Ricky's transformation from a young Jim Carrey lookalike into his adult form of Eric Freeman. Whats with the hairdo on the stuntman when the car goes careening past...seamless! I bought Part 1 and 2 in a "Double the Carnage" pack, but now Im thinking "One and a third times the carnage" is more appropriate.
did anyone else think eric freeman was tottally hot?
i love the sex scene between eric freeman and that girl
WAT A FAKE SEX SCENE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I thought it was a good movie. It depicts what made him so mad. Of course if I lost my brother I would go crazy as well; but if he was a murderer then he got what was coming!
I honestly can say I love this film! I believe that Eric Freeman starred in various TV series and you can do the research for it. Eric also won me over just the fact that no matter what people say. The Garbage Day! Incident made that movie awesome!
Overall I liked SNDN 2. Because you saw the original through his eyes and it is always good to have a persepective from another person. I definitely will continue to watch it just for the Garbage Day scene.
That's all I have to say. Oh by the way, The third one sucked!
This sequel sucked so much, even my dad thought so.
The acting, gore, flashbacks, music, everything sucked.
I only liked a few dumb scenes because they made me laugh.
At least the first was serious and smart.
If the acting would be serious, the plot would be good, and if the flashbacks of the originals' ending started at the begginning of this flick it would be a good sequel.
I give this trash :bouncegiggle: :hatred: out of :smile: :smile: :smile: :smile: :smile:
GARBAGE DAY!!!!!! Actually the only worth scene in the whole movie, you can't beat that crazy ass laugh after he shoots the guy who is taking out the trash. I still laugh when I remember that moment.
you forgot the rest of the quote...
GARBAGE DAY!!!
What...no!!!...
hahahahahahaha...
:bouncegiggle:
The film was originally meant to simply be a recut version of the 1st one because the 1st one got so much negative press. The director and producer wanted more and made the build around story as they progressed. So if it weren't for them we wouldn't have gotten any Ricky being hilariously acted by Eric Freeman.
