Animal House 2 would have been a huge mistake too. National Lampoon is usually pretty bad in terms of milking something dry, (see the Vacation sequels and the needless Dorm Daze sequels,) but they had it right here. Another sequel to add to the crap pile, Naked Gun 33 1/3. What was the point? |

And I agree that teenage slasher flicks are dire but Driller Killer was so dull it was practically an arthouse film. Was Scary Movie any good in the first instance? |

Very few of them ever match the original work because their not sequels there just more of the same except everything is telegraphed because you've seen the original
the list is endless star wars pre-quels oceans 12 blues brothers 2000 dumb and dumberer legally blonde:2 revenge of the nerds 2 porkies the next day halloween 3,4,5,6,7 friday the 13th...pick a number nightmare on elm st...pick a number a better question would be what sequels have been better than the originals? Mad Max 2 was better than Mad Max 1 imho but the 2 following sequels were awful God help who ever is making Mad Max 5 The Naked Gun series(3 films)were all pretty even and the quality of the writing certainly pissed all over the Police Academy franchise which i think ran to about 9 films which by the end were pure torture to watch For the love of whats good to all your writers out there Come up with something original Should be ban on sequels past number 3...any writer found with said script in hand will .................................suitable punishment to be advised Last edited by buttsie; November 28th, 2009 at 06:16 PM.. |

Police Academy
The first film was absolutely dire, but as a concept it was passable, but what the hell were they thinking when they went on to make more!!!
In my humble opinion, there has been only one film sequel that was worthy of any merit & that film was The Godfather 2, which was as good if not better than GF 1: but they couldn't leave that alone. Had to spoil it by making the poor Godfather 3.

What were they thinking?
Cheap budgets...almost guaranteed profits this from the wiki slashers page is as good a take on why certain franchises will probably never die "Remake and Reboot In 1998, the Halloween series was revived, playing off the success of the Scream franchise. The new film, Halloween H20: 20 Years Later, was conceived as a direct sequel to 1981's Halloween II, and would lead to one further sequel, Halloween: Resurrection. Another revival came in 2003 when a remake of The Texas Chainsaw Massacre was released. The Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Beginning popularized the prequel. The success of theTCM remake would soon lead to a slew of other slasher remakes, including Toolbox Murders (2004), House Of Wax, When A Stranger Calls, Black Christmas, The Hitcher, the "reimagining" of John Carpenter's Halloween, Prom Night, My Bloody Valentine 3D, Friday the 13th reboot, The Last House On The Left, and Sorority Row. A Nightmare on Elm Street (2010) remake is currently in development. A remake of Child's Play and Hellraiser are also in development." You only need look at the returns for the Halloween franchise to see why they keep making the same films over and over...the public simply cant stay away |

Any Hellraiser that doesn't have Clive Barker's name in the credits other than "created by" isn't worth your time or money.
