Basket Case 2 (1990) *** [Belial Double Feature Pt. 1]

A different beast than its predecessor (review), trading the NYC grime for a vividly colored rural setting, Frank Henenlotter's Basket Case 2 (1990) is a really kooky sequel, filled to the brim with freaky, fleshy prosthetics. Though I prefer the original, BC2 takes the series in a fun direction. The movie ups the budget, ups the comedy, the filmmaking is better, the acting is better, and it holds up well on repeat viewings.

Recommended for fans of Society (1989), Freaked (1993), and Freaks (1932) (review).
