Basket Case 2 1990  R, 89 min.
Genre: Horror / Thriller
Director: Frank Henenlotter
Cast: Kevin Van Hentenryck, Annie Ross, Kathryn Meisle, Heather Rattray, Jason Evers, Ted Sorel, Matt Mitler, Beverly Bonner, Leonard Jackson
Duane (Kevin Van Hentenryck) and his mutant twin brother are back, having survived certain death at the end of the previous film. As is often the case, this one just doesn't click like the original. They take refuge in a house of freaks with a reporter hot on their trail. Weird, but it will appeal to some.

Genre: Adventure
Director: William Witney
