"Not just one of them sequels..."
You heard the soundtrack, played the videogame and bought the soft drink, then you had to ruin everything by watching the movie. Sucks to see a beloved screen character behaving in stupid and inappropriate ways but it double sucks to see it happen again and again. Commentators call this phenomenon "the law of diminishing returns" but everyone else thinks it's just another crappy sequel. Sometimes these efforts are so spectacularly bad and wrong-headed they achieve a sort of grandeur, like in King Kong Lives when our hirsute hero takes his double-D girlfriend to "Honeymoon Ridge" (no euphemism, that's exactly where he takes her) or Howling 2 when Sybil Danning breaks out in fur for a lycanthropic menage a trois. Hilariously bad sequels offer more trashy, schlocky stupid fun than sequels that are just plain bad or directed by Michael Bay. Face it, you're more likely to get Alien 2: On Earth than Aliens so you might as well learn to appreciate a good bad film. You bring the beers, we'll bring the cheesy flicks for this bonkers b-movie extravaganza!
