We are the Freaks Not Them

I am a huge fan of the late Annie Ross. She played Granny Ruth in the sequel and third film. The story picks up where it left off. The twins are brought to Granny Ruth's palatial Staten Island home with her granddaughter, Susan (Heather Rattray), who seems normal physically. The home is filled with deformed humans or freaks. They're quite an array of genetic abnormalities and physical features. Duane and Belial have found a home where they are accepted and well cared for. Annie Ross is terrific as Granny Ruth where I wished she acted more. Heather Rattray Is very good as Susan. The special effects are somewhat outdated compared to today. It's entertaining though. Granny Ruth Is someone who cares about the so called freaks too. Annie Ross gave a terrific performance here.

Well, at least Duane and Belial are back together...

This movie was a direct sequel and continuation of the 1982 "Basket Case" movie. However, I can't claim to be much of a fan of the first movie, but I had the chance to get to sit down and watch all three movies, so I did.

"Basket Case 2" was a step in the wrong direction for the series. Why? Well, because it went from being semi-adequate in the first movie with it being just Duane and Belial, to featuring an entire freakish array of creatures in this sequel. So why is that a bad thing? Well, simply because the creature designs were just too much, didn't even pass as being believable in any sense what so ever. It just has to be seen to give it any justice, because those designs are hard to describe.

Storywise then "Basket Case 2" was adequate, although I can't really say that I overly enjoyed the collection of freaks much, it just added a very silly comedy element to the movie. The story is about Duane and Belial coming to seek refuse with Granny Ruth, after having escape hospitalization, where they join with a group of freakishly deformed creatures. But news of their whereabouts and the possibility of exposing the freaks safe haven is looming around the corner.

Kevin Van Hentenryck is back in the role as Duane, and does what he does, like it or not.

I found "Basket Case 2" to be treading a slippery slope and it just took a turn for the worse and went in the wrong direction. I managed to stick with it to the end just because I wanted to see how it ended.

"Basket Case 2" scores a less than mediocre four out of ten stars from me.
