Continuing our look at crappy horror films brings us to Killjoy 2: Deliverance from Evil.
For the uninitiated, Killjoy is a demonic clown that murders mortals while qupiing. Imagine if Freddy Kruger was an urban drag queen and you'll be in the right neighborhood. Killjoy is also a Full Moon franchise.
The first movie was unremarkable, aside from Killjoy who was a delight. Killjoy 2 however switches actors, locals, and has an $8 budget. Let the shit flow.
This movie follows several 20-30 year old 'youth' offenders who are being bused to a community service site. They are not wearing uniforms. The officers are not dressed like cops. The van isn't branded. The offenders all vary in level of offense, some not even being explained. Basically, it's bullshitty well before Killjoy shows up.
The bus breaks down, the cast wanders around, one guy is shot. They find a voodoo witch who tries to save the shootee's life, and his partner (both in crime and sexually, I'm sure) decides to call up Killjoy to save him. Killjoy, who is literally known only for killing people. FINALLY, Killjoy flounces onscreen, kills the cast off with no special effects, and gets down to the final girl. Said final girl has spent the movie crying and doing nothing by the way.
And then, it happens.
We get the one funny joke.
The final girl starts reading from a mystic book, and Killjoy starts mouthing along, sits, and starts screaming "Boring!"
Then the girl throws candle wax on him and he dies.
I can't really describe all the shit here. The terrible readings. The nonsense motivations. The baffling end credits rap. Killjoy 2 must be seen and enjoyed. Go to. Find a copy. Spread the word!

Trent Haaga, you beautiful man.

Truly an ending worth Killjoy 2.
