i think i'm right in saying that the exorcist was brilliant then the sequel was shite then the third installment was brilliant. what about an american werewolf in paris?

You're right, part 2 of the"Exorcist"really sucked!

It's "Curse of the Cat People", not "Return"

And I completly agree, its not that great.

Another one would be Dracula's Daughter...it was decent enough, but not even in the same league as the original.

did you like batman begins B ?

It was pretty cool. I prefer the first Michael Keaton Batman movie though. Keaton was perfect casting in my opinion & Jack Nicholson as The Joker would have to be one of my favorite film villains ever. I also enjoyed the campiness of the old school Adam West Batman movie. Soooooo corny.

That one gets alot of shit, but I thought it was pretty decent. Not quite on par with the first one, which is one of my favourites, but still a very entertaining horror flick. Ray Wise is awesome, and I loved the ending.

Chinese Ghost Story 2.

The first CGS is a masterpiece, the second film is half-interesting but just never comes together with a proper emotional center. Tries to introduce big effects sequences and just ends up looking weak.

My ever unpopular vote for this, Friday the 13th part 2. Mrs. Vorhees was the killer in 1! I like Jason...well, through like #4, after that suckfest and Jason Goes to New York, someone should be shot for that...but the mother was a brilliant idea then it's the supernatural, undying son. Also Halloween 3 (does not have anything to do with the Halloween franchise except the name for the green stuff). Both Matrix sequels.

"A Nightmare on Elm Street" series has gone through a very weird development. As said before, the second part is the worst compared to the other sequels (though "Freddy's Dead" wasn't much better), again the third one is considered the best right after the original and usually NOES fans appear to enjoy the fourth and the fifth one too.

My favorite is "The Exorcist", I think. Lets be honest, "Exorcist II: Heretic" is such a pile of steaming junk that it would make anyone throw up during the first few minutes... Yet Renny Harlin's "The Beginning" (2004) was pretty okay at least compared to the second part. The original is greatest of course. ;)

And, i think 4 out of 15 is too many. I think horror fims should have a maximum of 3, preferably 2.

the exorcist is one of the few franchises where the original is followed by a really poor sequal then that's followed by a great sequal. its the only movie that comes close to the top in both the best sequal/worst sequal categories. if the previous two hadn't existed part3 would be thought of as a great.

I agree....I saw it for the first time a few weeks ago, and while I think it had some problems, I like the direction it took; it had lots of energy, and those involved seem to realize they couldn't just make part 1 again, and tried something different. But at the same time, I can definitely understand why some hate it.

And Exorcist 3 is a fine sequel, I really liked it, and I almost didn't give it a chance based on my low opinion of part 2 (which I still haven't been able to finish by the way, too disappointing).

Blade 2 is not as good as the original but not horrible. The story isnt great but the action rocks. And then there is the third which brings in a dodgy dracula type person which is not the best move!

demonboy

06-09-2007, 11:00 AM

All of the blade movies are worth watching. The first is still the best, but none of them are bad.

As far as the worst sequel, Wishmaster 3 hands down. I loved the first two Wishmaster movies, mainly because of Andrew Divoff as the Djinn. As soon as they replaced him starting with the third movie, that was the end of the series for me.

Blade 2 was the best of the trilogy, IMO. It brought a new look to the vampire story that has been told so many times, over and over. Del Toro did an excellent job with the movie and the characters were far more intriguing then the ones in the first and third.

And speaking of Blade 3, what a horrible way to end such a great saga. How many times has the whole ultimate dracula thing been done before?? To many times. I can only hope that they will come back with another one, but I would bet my left nut that will not happen.....

I didn't read the whole thread so this may have been discussed already, but in my opinion, the absolute WORST sequel to a mindblowingly unique and fantastic film was The Matrix Reloaded. There's not even another sequel I can consider in it's place.... They ruined Morpheus in this movie. In The Matrix, he was one of the coolest characters in cinema history & in the sequel, he was some helpless goon yelling at a bunch of people like a fucktard in a big cave. Man, just thinking about it is getting me worked up so I guess that's all I'm really gonna say on it...

I don't think Reloaded is the absolute worst sequel ever, though I agree it is up there, because the first one was just so good, and there was so much potential for the next two to be every bit as good; but both fell flat, neither did justice to the story they set up so well in the first one. It seemed like they just didn't know where to go with it. I consider both among the most disappointing sequels, if not among the worst.
