sequals that do not connect to the first movie.

House 2 i was expecting it to continue from House 1, instead you get a story about a mummy/cowboy grandpa, with a  jewel. Still House 2 is fun but house 1 is a little better.

Chud 2 This movie has nothing to do with the first CHUD at all besides the first five minutes maybe. Its more of a comedy than scary movie.

Halloween: 3 season of the witch This has nothing to do with michael myers at all. Still though its a great movie but the first time I saw it, I was totally shocked and waiting for myers to start killing. Cool concept though of halloween masks that turn kids faces into insects.

I always crack up at the part when the one guy whips the cabinet open, points at the pterosaur (or whatever it is) inside and declares, "Look at that.  It's a prehistoric bird!"  The movie is entertaining, but man is it silly.  Of course, that is part of the reason it and the first one worked.

the electrician bit is great when the guy hands them his card "electrician and adventurer" and he says "go on ahead, ill fight them my son has a little league game later".

Anaconda 2 - new continent, new batch of expendable meat, lots more snakes.

[ME!]

I've never seen it, but does Urban Legends 2 have anything to do with the first one?

[Shadow]

Not that I recall...and the third one has even less to do with either of them.

I didn't feel that Starwars: Attack of the Clones connected with Starwars: The Phantom Menace.

None of the Matrix films connected.

My favorite is Sorority House Massacre 2, which has flashback scenes to Slumber Party Massacre;  a different franchise altogether.  And then there's Hard to Die, which is basically a sequel to Slumber Party Massacre 2, and contains some of the same actresses, and they show the same flashbacks from Slumber Party Massacre.  But these are the same people who just saw those flashbacks in the previous movie - you'd think they'd remember.

The third Final Destination film has no relation to the other films in the series. Apart from a special feature on the DVD where you can read a newspaper article that blows past the characters in the film, which tells us of the fate of the people from part 2.

Anyone remember the H.O.T.S. franchise of cheerleader-based "comedies"? Part 3 was made ten years before parts 1 and 2, was clearly bought for next-to-nothing by the producers and has, should that sort of thing be your cup of tea, full-frontal nudity from a pre-fame David Hasselhoff.

Citizen Toxie had nothing to do with Toxic Avenger 2 and 3 (although they mention that in the beginning 'next came two rotten sequals, sorry about that; here's the real sequal)

[Bill C.]

I'm surprised...make that stunned...that the very first post didn't even mention Highlander 2.

How about Evil Dead 2?  At the beginning of the movie I was thinking "why the hell do they want to go back to that cabin after what happened the first time?" lol  Then you realize that the first movie never happened.  I liked the second one better than the first despite the lack of continuity!

Troll 2 - I don't know if that film connected with anything in the known universe.
Pumpkinhead 2 - I was always a bit confused about the witch in the second one.  Was she the same witch as in the first one?  That and didn't the rules of Pumpkinhead's engagement seem different?
Return Of The Living Dead 2 - In a funny way actually.  The returns from the first make commentary in the film about how "they've been through" it all before.

Prom Night 2 & 4

Responding to "ME!", Urban Legend 2 had nothing to do with the first, but did involve a short, unexplained, return at the end by the villainess
