I watched Troll 2 with some friends last night, and it was fun, but I feel I've seen films that are more incoherent, dull or less creative than it. The dialogue and acting is awful, and the effects are clearly very cheap but there's little flashes of competence or imagination in it and an intentional gag or performance that works. Anyway, many yuks were had at the idea it was completely unrelated to the original Troll, and being the pedantic nerd I am who is always a smash at parties, I mentioned that making barely related sequels to popular films isn't entirety uncommon in Italian B-Cinema and I could think of Alien 2: On Earth and Zombi 2 off the top of my head. Asides from those, are there any other obvious ones I'm missing? I'm also interested in blatant misleading retitling for other markets to, like the Spanish film Night of the Seagulls being sold as Return of the Evil Dead, at least in the UK.

EL BROMANCE posted:Make sure to watch Best Worst Movie, which is the documentary about it and it’s resurgence. I think it hits that perfect blend of insanity and competence that makes it a lot of fun. Yeah, we talked about that too. I hunted for it before a good few years ago, but couldn't find it and that was before the streaming explosion. I should try again.

Maxwell Lord posted:Yeah sometimes it's just taking a movie that already exists and calling it a sequel. In an Italian video store I saw Silent Running labelled as "2002: Second Odyssey" and also "Spaceballs 2" which I think was something called Martians Go Home. Interesting - something like the film Lady Terminator would fit the mold too, where a lot of is an original film drawing on Indonesian folklore, but it also just recreated some scenes from The Terminator too.
