Such a fall in quality from the first film. The plot is almost an exact copy of the first (even the Jimmy Carr lookalike Slappy is back), but without any originality, much less comedy and just no spark.
Jack Black does make an appearance, but he might as well not have, his role was totally pointless.

I didn't realise Jack Black was actually in this, may have made me consider watching but sounds like it may be worth giving it a miss!

He pretty much phoned it in to be honest. It’s fine as a film but far from as good as the first one.

Oh dear
A very dry, dead pan black comedy indie film. I thought it was going to be a thriller. Despite the cast this falls very flat. It's very predictable and not funny. The dialogue came across as if everyone was pretending to be a robot for some reason? One to skip.

Extremely dark, black comedy based on a true story
That scene woodchipper scene will haunt me for life.

Truth is definitely stranger than fiction. This extremely dark 'comedy' is now infamous in gallows humour. Without revealing everything, a woman is kidnapped by a psychotic conman and his slightly weedy partner for ransom. Her husband is in charge of gaining this ransom from his father-in-law, only for things to go very, very wrong.


It's a classic cult film, not for everyone. But if you loved 'In Bruges', this will be right up your street.

Informative
Great research
Empathic toward victims/victims' families
Crime and Comedy
Two American comedians who examine the horrendous things that sometimes happen when people in small towns snap and commit murder. A hilariously funny show, which is respectful to the victims and their families, while laughing at murderers, incompetent law enforcement, and small town behaviour.
True crime and comedy can go together, and laughter and black humour are a good coping mechanism when dealing with horrific circumstances, and these two walk the tightrope between irreverence and insensitivity very well.
