I saw Feast I and laughed and laughed with the on-going freeze-frame commentary. It was fresh and new and intelligent. Oh- and it had buckets of blood!!
Feast II is Bad because they AIMED for Bad. They AIMED for Bad because they want this movie to become a Cult Item. Because they're AIMING for Cult Status, they should be denied.
They failed. It lacks the Backhanded intelligent humor of the First Movie and just went for raw Yuk-yuks. The Monsters are now in plain view-- without the cover of darkness, they lose aura of terror. They just became red, toothy and predictable.
The characters lacked the Staged Set-up tableau of the Lonely Desert Diner/Bar to now be placed in a two bit town-- with everyone else already dead. The one logical center Set piece they could have used was the County Jail-- but the script closed that spot off as a pointless aside with one character inside doing nothing. I mean, even the Sheriff died for nothing.
Oh don't get me wrong. . .there's plenty of Splat. But even the Baby toss was predictable and derivative.
If there's a Feast III, I won't be looking.
