I'm curious to see this one! I have a feeling I might like it, especially if I don't expect it to be as good as the first movie. (For a gruesome gore satire, "2000 Maniacs" was pretty entertaining and reeeeally reeeeeally weird!)

Have you seen 2000 Maniacs Ruben? How do think they compare? Anybody seen both?

[rubenmania]

No I havent seen the 1st one....How old is it?

[The Mothman]

i believe its an H. G. Lewis film right? in that case, its from the late 60's, ruben.

You might even call the first movie a "gore classic," I remember seeing it in the late 80's, rented it, and really it is quite something. There is definitely a warped sense of humor at work in this film.

The sequel could never be as good, so I'm expecting an average trip into familiar territory.
