Full Moon: Deliverance From Decent Horror Movies, 3 May 2003
2/10
Author: capkronos (capkronos00@hotmail.com) from Ohio, USA

Cops Logan Alexander and Debbie Rochon escort five black juvenile delinquents cross country and end up stranded out in the sticks when their van breaks down. After a deadly run-in with a racist, white trash bitch with a shotgun (played by the director), the survivors take refuge in the house of a blind voodoo priestess. One of the teens senselessly uses a spell to call up Killjoy, who finally shows up about midway through this bore in a subpar make-up job and bigger, greasier 'fro that looks like it could slide off his head at any moment. He then proceeds to kill off the stupid characters while spouting some of the worst one-liners heard since Hee Haw was canceled.

The acting from the "teens" is terrible, the dialogue even worse, the FX stink and it looks a lot cheaper than the first film. Although I enjoyed him in his earlier Troma films, Trent Haaga (trying to imitate Jim Carrey here) is awful and no match for the hyperactive overemoting of Angel Vargas in KILLJOY 1 (which at least had a few dumb laughs).

Yet another nail in the coffin for Full Moon studios, whose reputation as a fun direct-to-vid franchise has completely vanished since the TRANCERS/PUPPET MASTER days.

Tears of a clown, 18 May 2003

*SPOILER ALERT* *SPOILER ALERT*

This one was odd because I was actually interested in the movie up until the moment Killjoy showed up. Once the demonic clown was in the picture, the movie didn't know what to do with him and limped along until the end. Wayward teens head to the woods and get stranded. Through a series of events, Killjoy is summoned and proceeds to do a lot of goofy, uninteresting things.

The main problem with this movie, and the whole series, is that Killjoy is not funny. He is annoying and his kills are lame. I never could figure out exactly what his powers are. He seems to be able to do just about anything. He is the master of all matter.

So he shows up, does his stuff and then they don't know how to get rid of him. The ending is ultra weak and the movie comes to a screeching halt. The clown made me cry.

this movie really is a Killjoy.., 18 January 2005

Author: James_Storm34 from United Kingdom

I really don't know why I agreed to watch this movie, but like a complete fool I did and for that I deserve to be shot! I had seen the original Killjoy, well I say I have seen it.... I started watching it but found it that bad that I ended up watching it in 4x speed to get it over with and get rid of the annoying dialogue, but I said I would watch it and I did even if it was in 4x speed.

To cut a long story short Killjoy 2 kicks off where Killjoy left off. By this i don't mean the plot, I mean the complete and total bag of dirt known as acting and cheapness. I have nothing against low budget movies, in fact I kinda enjoy them, they are something different from Mega budget blockbusters, but this film is just terrible! The acting is diabolical and the script... well i think you could of given Stevie Wonder a pen and paper, and he would of produced something much better! This movie is just annoying, not to mention the annoying laugh the clown has which is so obviously dubbed! I didn't make it through this movie anyway, about three quarters of the way through it was time to turn it off and throw it through the window. It may of been a rip off to buy as a DVD but as a frisbee it was a mega bargain!

Please for the love of mankind itself DO NOT watch this muck, it is possibly the worst thing I have ever seen and considering some of the muck I've seen thats saying a lot!

My rating on this movie would be.... Nailgun to the head/10

Killjoy 2 is the same as killjoy 1. Bad acting, bad characters, annoying clown, bad lines, you name it. Honestly, I'm not all that surprised that more people haven't seen this movie. The only reason I watched Killjoy 2 is because I wanted to think that the filmmakers learned from their mistakes. They didn't. This movie is just as bad, if not worse, than the first one. That clown.... that goddamn clown.... I hate him! I hate him so much! And I don't hate him because he is a good villain... I hate him because he is annoying beyond belief! I hope that the filmmakers realized after trying and failing again that this movie is unrepairable. The last thing we need is a Killjoy 3.

Hell For My Eyes and Mind: Part 2, 16 September 2003

One day I thought to myself....what is the worst possible thing that could happen today? I answered my self with a simple," Oh, it already happened. I rented Killjoy/Killjoy 2" on DVD. Well, what is there to say? The budget was not large enough to rent a police uniform, the movie cuts out sex scenes and death scenes. There is one funny line that I can remember, and the acting is far worse than the first one. There seems to be no lighting on the "set" (the woods somewhere) and the killer clown known as Killjoy (who makes Leprechaun look like The Exorcist)is less than spectacular. This time, he is not portrayed by Angel Vargas and is completely changed as a character from a crazy irritating clown to a different kind of crazy irritating clown that says "CHILD" a lot. Somewhere between Freddy Krueger and a blade of grass... lies this version of Killjoy. Somewhere between a pile of dirt and a pile of s---t lies Killjoy 2. It's badness is underrated. This movie does not have any redeeming qualities, except the song at the very end over the credits... which at leas provides some enjoyment. Killjoy 2 is not even really a movie, so much as an exercise in tension. Killjoy 1 is at least good enough to be considered as the worst movie I have ever seen. MINOR SPOILER######### Let me describe one of the supernatural kill scenes. A girl is locked in a wood shed of some sort (maybe an outhouse?) when Killjoy peers in through a hole. He has some small chattering teeth (like the ones you can buy at Spencer's Gifts) and he does something with them (maybe winds them up?!). Then he holds them in his hands and says a terrible line (which can't be written on IMDB). From what I gather of this scene (not from what is shown by the movie) the teeth went into the outhouse and killed the girl in some interesting, but unshown way, and then came back to Killjoy. If I were those teeth I would have run. Run far from Killjoy so he could never ever get his hands on me again. Killjoy 2 is hopefully the last Killjoy we will have to endure. Even as a fan of movies others would say are very bad, I think that this "film" could unify the human race and create world peace if it were promised that this film and anything reminding us of it would be destroyed. I give it 2/10 - simply because the creators succeeded at making the pictures move.

Killed all my joy, 14 September 2005

*** This comment may contain spoilers ***

I have never seen the first Killjoy film, and I have also never heard a good thing said about it. So I see Killjoy 2 in the local Blockbusters and pick it up and look at the back. Starring Trent Haaga and Debbie Rochon it boasts. Now being the massive Troma fan that I am there is no way I'm not going to rent this film out, how can it possibly be bad with these two in it? Oh how wrong I was. Even Trent and Debbie cant save this excuse of a film from being as bad as it truly is. Trent quite frankly stinks as Killjoy although this probably is more the fault of the writers giving him some of the worst one-liners in the history of film. Debbie does put a solid performance in but it isn't enough. The kills are terrible as are the gore effects. For example check out when the guy is supposedly impaled on something or other. And just to top it all off the ending is just amongst the worst I have ever seen in movie history. The film doesn't even work on a so bad it's good level. Avoid like the clap.

2/10

Well, better than the first one, 13 January 2002

Author: Jim Manson

not that that counts for a lot.

Overall it's more coherent and a tighter script than the original Killjoy. The acting is better as well. A couple of the actors look like they may actually go on to better things eventually. One looks like a dead ringer for a very young Keenan Ivory Wayans.

The basic plot is 2 juvenile officers and 5 delinquents on the way to boot camp break down in the middle of nowhere. After a couple of not too bad scenes they end up at the house of a voodoo practitioner. Killjoy then ends up on the scene and the killing begins.

Very mild spoiler ( actually just playing it safe, it doesn't really give much away)

The actor that plays Killjoy obviously spent a lot of time watching Caesar Romero on the old Batman show. He does come across somewhat better then the first one and some of the jokes actually manage to be amusing in a "smile" sort of way. The scene where one of the people is desperately reading out of a voodoo book in an attempt to banish Killjoy made me smile when he started with the " How long is this going to take? Yes, Yes Lord of Darkness yada yada" routine.

Actually better than I expected after seeing Killjoy 1 on the double feature DVD release. For mindless entertainment on a slow night it's worth a look.

Not as good as the first but ok, 12 January 2002
Author: bcameron1 from North Carolina

While staying with a mysterious voodoo priestess, a group of delinquents from the ghetto mistakenly conjure up the urban legend known as Killjoy. I had only one problem with this movie. Like a lot of other horror movies it failed to come up with a decent ending. But in good notes, it was well paced and had some neat killings. This movie is nothing special and it won't hurt for you to miss it. I gave it ** stars out of ****

WORTH RENTING, 19 May 2004
10/10
Author: breathlesschester from Los Angeles

My friends and I truly enjoyed this one!! Killjoy has been much improved!! Trent Haaga pops up in the strangest and most unlikely movies sometimes. For the genre and budget this was a darn fine flick. Kudos to the kiddies who made it and their effort. Genre inside genre fun. Much better than the first film. A good example of what can be done with seemingly no money and probably little time and resources. This is a great film for pizza and smokin' out with friends on a lazy or crazy Friday night. There should be more urban horror films made and out there for our guilty pleasures. We also suggest "The Horrible Dr. Bones,""Cryptz," and "The Vault."
