Um Morto Muito Louco 2

Bernie is still dead, and is now needed to provide a key signature in St. Thomas. Larry and Richard are more than happy to escort their former boss. The scenery is great, the music pleasant, and the humor runs at a surprising rate!

I ordered a large pizza tonight from a well known pizza place (that will remain nameless to save its reputation) that was offering a free DVD with the pizza. So, from the limited selection, I decided on Weekend At Bernie's 2.

The DVD came in a paper sleeve. Not even a plastic jewel case. After watching it I realized that the movie didn't even deserve the sleeve. THAT'S how bad this movie is.

The premise is stupid, the dialogue is bad, and not even the slap-stick humor performed on a corpse was even smirk invoking. Others have said that the only laugh they got from this movie was when Bernie was dancing. Stand in front of the mirror and dance around like a complete moron. Do you make yourself laugh? Then you STILL won't like this movie. It's awful, absolutely awful.

As far as the careers of the people involved, just ask yourself one question: where are they now?

If you can answer that question, then you'll understand how bad this movie is.

Watching this movie is like having gangrene infect my eyes. Spare yourself the anguish. Let it collect dust in the video store and rent ANYTHING else.

No stars.

I watched this film for only one reason, which was that the original was fantastic. This story had a lot of potential which wasn't really used at all. Without as many laughs, and quite a bad story, I found this movie rather a let down. It was occasionally funny in places, but it's nothing special, and over all, disappointing. Stay with the first movie, it's much, much better.

No one could ever deny the hilarity of "Weekend at Bernies," but I know that many of you were wondering, "How can they duplicate the magic?" I won't lie, I was briefly--just briefly--concerned that making a sequal to the original would be a mistake. It took me exactly one minute to realize that my earlier fears were completely unfounded. Seeing Bernie, who again was played beautifully by Terry kiser, brought me near tears with his absolutley on-the-mark timeing. Ladies and gentlemen, this man is a genius. I don't think that I'm spoiling anything by saying that, yes, Bernie is still dead. And that's what makes mister Kiser's performance that much greater (playing a dead man who is under a voodoo curse is no walk in the park!) Bernie dances. Bernie waterskis. Bernie flirts with gorgeous women. ALL WHILE BEING A CORPSE! I could go on and on about Mr. Kiser's performance, but I will let you experience it on your own. Adrew Mcarthy and Jonathen Silverman are both back and are funnier than ever as well. Those two play so well off of each other that I would be surprised if a sitcom was not in the works. I'll end here by saying that this movie will change your life, it's really that fantastic. And please, for your own sake, find the director's cut, you wont be dissapointed.

Andrew McCarthy and Silverman are back and in desperate need of a paycheck which is the only reason they could have ever wanted to appear in a sequel that was not needed or should have been made. The first film ended, the man was dead, the story was over, but they somehow create a very flimsy premise to bring everyone's favorite corpse back from the dead yet again. Yes, he is sort of brought back from the dead in this one as he walks yet again anytime he hears music, basically a zombie that does not crave human flesh, but music. The two dudes from the last movie are back too, and this time they may as well be criminals as they basically want to steal Bernie's corpse to try and access some stuff as Bernie may have some money hidden somewhere. They may as well be bad guys with their motives in this one. There are two guys who use voodoo to reawaken Bernie and a voodoo lady who puts a curse on them. Yes, it is as bad as all that. Still, there are a couple of laughs to be found here and there, just not enough to make this a good or okay or tolerable movie to watch. Like I said before, some movies should not have sequels to them and this is most certainly one of them. The first one was rather enjoyable to me, but even then they seemed to be stretching the premise thin, here it just breaks apart as the whole zombie thing is simply ludicrous.
