Feast II: Sloppy Seconds

Feast 2 : Great Sequel
It's obvious by some of the horrible reviews some people just don't get this movie. This movie is realistic in the sense of what would these people really do in a situation like this.The Feast movies make fun of a genre. whatever is popular in horror movies at the time and then say okay how would that really happen?I'll be honest and say the first time I watched this movie i was not impressed, then i watched it again and again and again and noticed every time i re watched it i picked up on things, had more questions and enjoyed the movie a lot more. This is one of those movies that grows on you the more you watch it and your totally hooked.I feel sorry for the reviewers who watched it once and made up thier mind on it. They are really missing out on a great movie, especially one that makes fun of itself and introduces these over the top characters you just dig. After awhile you come to really like these characters, especially Thunder and Bartender and Biker Queen. You can tell the director and the writers are huge horror fans. This is the same team who wrote Saw 4 and 5 and one writer has a brief hilarious run in, in the movie.I don't know about these other hater reviewers but i cannot wait for Feast 3...gotta see how this all wraps up...and can't wait to see Hobo get his. I reccomend before you watch the movie watch the "meet the gulagers" featurette. you'll realize that "the baby" everyone is having a hissy fit about is related to 4 family members in the movie. I think they could have left out "the dream sequence" it didn't really add anything to the movie :)I've come to love this movie MORE than the first movie. Like the first Feast it's full of great one-liners that people will be quoting after watching it and I can't help but laugh everytime I see or hear "the secret" mentioned since seeing this movie lol Honestly? I've worn out my dvd copy and now prefer this movie to the first one. Course I would have thrown the chick off the roof, grabbed the ladder repeatedly used to climmb back up and climbed up on top of the jail with the key instead of using the Catapault, but that's just me. I can't wait for February 17th to see how it all ends and with the writers of Saw 4 and 5, you know it's gonna be one heck of an ending.

Do you like over-the-top, tasteless gorefests?
I was downright mystified by all the negative comments about this sequel, by people who purportedly loved the first Feast movie. I noticed a number of erroneous details to both Feasts 1 & 2, so I have to wonder what exactly they were conscious of. It's true this movie pushes the boundaries further, to sickening effect (the dissection scene is an absolute riot!), but there were plenty of vile things to be found, both of the gross-out and questionable ethics variety, in the first movie. This is a sequel in the truest sense: A continuation of the first story, and MORE (in excess) of what made the first one great. People who were looking for a "scary" movie are clearly looking in the wrong place. This is pure camp. I don't think any installment of this trilogy was meant to scare you (though I guess part 1 had a scary element? I think I'm desensitized). They are all about fun and outrageousness. If you take offense to an immoral used car salesman make a totally futile effort to redeem himself and rescue an innocent baby, AND have it go horribly wrong, then you've wandered into the wrong horror series. I think the Feast trilogy is a modern-day horror classic, albeit kind of overlooked. Director John Gulager and writers Patrick Melton & Marcus Dunstan succeeded in what they set out to do. Make stylish, fun, darkly humorous, boundary-pushing genre flicks that appeal to hardened gorehounds. I'm sure they made these sequels to please themselves as well. Scream Factory or Arrow should definitely pick up the trilogy and do a deluxe Blu-ray edition.

We are not even going to talk about the cat
in this review. Adventuresome person that I am, there are some places even I won't go, and you can add the naked dwarf to that area.I loved the original FEAST so wanted to see FEAST II despite the reviews. While I've noticed an odd mixture of GREAT and AWFUL -- which one seldoms sees, I'm in the "rent it if you really must see it" cuz it just didn't have the fun of the original. I do like to collect series (i.e. SCARY MOVIES I, II, II, IV or several ALIEN movies -- of which the last was bad enough they really should stop.) but I really don't see the need to complete this one. Won't be getting #3. Very disappointed in this one. "Gore Fest" is a term I've noted in other reviews, and it does suit.We find ourselves kind'a carrying on from the last movie with a good character actor and father of the director, Clu Gulager, some bad-a$$ motorcycle babes (yes, I know how sexist that sounds, but when/if you see FEAST II you'll understand), a couple of used car salesmen, and sterotypical dumb blondes. I swear upon all that is holy there is not an I.Q. above 60 in this entire movie, and that unfortunately includes the writers. Stupidity abounds, and not in a funny way.It gets 3 stars because of the bartender and because I love good character actors. He does the job he is (hopefully) paid to do. The acting really isn't that bad here, it's just that the characters do such stupid things over and over. This is mostly a rehash from the first movie, with the characters trapped in a small town instead of a bar, fighting monsters that have come from nowhere. I wish they'd truly had some kind of good explaination in either FEAST or FEAST II as to how something so big and vicious just managed to pop up and start slaughtering the population.As it is, the ending, the gore, the stupidy is all fairly predictable.

2と3を一気見すれば☆5つ(単独なら☆3くらいかな?)
2と3をセットで考えれば良しだと思うのですが、どちらも1と比べると展開がもっさりしていてブラックユーモアのキレが今ひとつですので、2本まとめて2時間位でまとめてくれたらもっと良かったんですけど。1の時の特典の別エンディングを見ると、真昼間に怪物が大手をふって歩き回るという設定は最初は考えてなかったんだと思うのですが、この何とも言えない絵面を見ると正しく正しい続編であると嬉しくはなります。やっぱり続編ならば怪物は最初からうじゃうじゃとしかもオールヌードで堂々と出てきてもらいたいですもんね!またお下劣さも続編らしくやけくそ気味のパワーアップで実に良し。もうわざわざ便器の中に排泄物まで入れているところからもやる気が感じられます。とても同じ監督と思えないテイストの変化も良し。まぁこの変なふりきれ方にはがっかりする人も多いでしょうけどねぇ。ただ3部作にわけてまでの3のラストは、私みたいなモンティパイソン世代には“ふん”てなもんですけど。やっぱり2と3がセットだったらなぁ。

汚すぎ・・・
2と3同時発売という胡散臭さに迷いましたが、脚本が前作と同じということで期待を込めて結局DVDを購入、本日ようやく観ました。 結果、チープ感は否めません。前作に比べてよっぽど低予算なのでしょう、まるでTVムービーのようです。怪物自体は、前作でも造形に優れているとは思いませんでしたが、今回はまんまカブリモノです。 肝心のホラー要素としては、血糊の量は多いですが、残酷描写よりもゲロや虫など生理的に気持ち悪い描写でごまかしている感じです。なぜそこまでゲロを連発させるのか、個人的には全く意味がわかりません。 ただ、よい意味での悪ノリ度はアップしてます。そのノリを受け入れられない人も多数いるでしょうが。

Five Stars
excellent thanks
A**ー
『1』だけで十分
1の面白さを期待すると肩透かしにあいます。とにかく冗長で下品。屁だのゲロだのが好きな人にはいいかもしれませんが、そうでないのならおすすめできません。
