Alright, alright, let me tell you about this “A Haunted House 2” movie. Don’t expect no fancy talk from me, I’m just gonna tell it like it is, you know? Like how we talk back home when we gossipin’ about the neighbors.
So, this movie, it’s supposed to be scary, like those ghost movies the youngsters watch. But honestly? It’s more silly than spooky. It’s a spoof, they call it. Means it’s makin’ fun of other scary movies, like that “Paranormal Activity” and that “Sinister” one. You know, the ones with the jump scares and the creepy dolls.
The fella in it, Marlon Wayans, he’s a funny guy. He’s always runnin’ around, screamin’ and makin’ faces. And there’s this doll, a real creepy lookin’ thing. But it ain’t scary, not really. It’s more like, you laugh at how silly it looks. They try to be scary sometimes, with the shadows and the noises, but it just doesn’t work. You end up chucklin’ more than shiverin’.
Now, they say this movie is “R-rated.” That means it ain’t for the little kids, you hear? It’s got some bad words and some, well, you know… “adult situations.” Like, people doin’ things they shouldn’t be doin’ on screen. Not that I watch that stuff, mind you. I’m just tellin’ you what they put in the movie. They got fart jokes too. Lots of ’em, more than the first movie, some folks say. I don’t know why they think that’s funny, but there you have it.
- They make fun of a bunch of scary movies.
- Marlon Wayans is the main guy, and he’s a goofball.
- There’s a creepy doll, but it’s more funny than scary.
- It’s not for kids, got some bad words and “adult stuff.”
- Lots of fart jokes, apparently.
The story? Well, it’s kinda all over the place. This fella, Marlon’s character, he’s got a new girlfriend and they move into a new house. And guess what? The house is haunted! But not like, real scary haunted. It’s more like, silly haunted. Things move around, doors slam, and there’s that creepy doll again. And then there’s all these other characters, like the psychic and the priest. They’re all supposed to be helpin’, but they’re mostly just there for laughs.
Honestly, I didn’t understand half of it. They were talkin’ so fast and doin’ all these crazy things. But I guess that’s the point, right? It’s not supposed to make sense. It’s supposed to make you laugh. And I did laugh a few times, I gotta admit. But mostly, I was just sittin’ there, scratchin’ my head, wonderin’ what in the world was goin’ on. They even got grandmothers and kids watchin’ this stuff, can you believe it? Even my old teacher, Sister Mary, wouldn’t approve, God rest her soul.
So, would I recommend it? Well, that depends. If you liked the first “A Haunted House” movie, then yeah, you’ll probably like this one too. It’s more of the same. If you’re lookin’ for a real scary movie, this ain’t it. But if you want somethin’ silly and goofy, somethin’ to turn your brain off for a while, then give it a shot. Just don’t expect too much, you hear? It ain’t Shakespeare, that’s for sure.
Overall, it’s a movie that tries to be both funny and scary, but it doesn’t quite succeed at either. It’s got a few laughs, but it’s not laugh-out-loud hilarious. And it’s got a few spooky moments, but it’s not gonna keep you up at night. It is what it is, a silly movie made for a few cheap chuckles and maybe to poke some fun at them fancy horror flicks. Just don’t go in expectin’ some kinda masterpiece, and you might just enjoy it.
