Full Moon...why have you done this to us?
If you haven't seen the original Killjoy, then meatbags, you need to watch
it. It's a great movie. Angel Vargas (Killjoy) is the greatest evil clown ever
to walk the face of this planet, and all should bow down to his clown powers and
prowess. C and myself decided that, since Killjoy was such a great movie, we
should watch Killjoy 2, and revel in the light of Angel Vargas's amazing skill.
We ran into a snag, though. Angel Vargas wasn't playing Killjoy in the second
movie.
This was sacrelige.
Angel Vargas...replaced?!? How dare Full Moon do this?! Who could they
possibly find a better actor than Angel Vargas?!
Some white guy named Trent Haaga.
You see, the reason why Killjoy was such a good clown in the first Killjoy,
was because he fit the setting. It's obvious that under all that make-up,
there's a guy who's street. The setting changed, but the characters were all
still inner-city youth. So, to fit the setting, we should have a street
character.
Instead, we get an unfunny white guy in a clown costume.
Although this movie is only 77 minutes, Killjoy doesn't even show up for the
first half-hour/forty-five minutes of the movie. All that time, we're treated to
some decent acting on behalf of the inner city youth, and a couple of older
police officers, a hillbilly chick, and a voodoo chick. Not bad acting all
around, but goddammit, WHERE THE FUCK WAS ANGEL VARGAS?!?!
Full Moon owes us for this one. Avoid this movie and watch the original
Killjoy. You'll thank me for it.
