i wasn't going to watch due to all the negative comments then thought if i went by all the comments I've read id have probably only ever gotten to watch 2 movies in my life. so watched it and had a darn good laugh. if you have a sense of humor and didn't laugh, lighten up, bottle of wine, relax and watch again. not every movie is going to be a blockbuster. I've read some long winded reviews on here about some movies...like your the only "film critic" on the planet and you must get your point across to the dumb asses who might be about to watch it. we are all individuals,different tastes,so if you didn't like a movie for any reason say so in 3 words instead of trying to turn the whole world against it
I didn't really like the Scary Movie series so I was pleasantly surprised by the similar (but funnier) A Haunted House. Still, I wasn't looking forward to this sequel since comedy sequels almost always suck. Sadly, this one does suck for the most part. Marlon Wayans tries so so hard and carries the movie on his back 95% of the time. His shtick is constant and, because of this, I grew tired of him very quickly. By the half-hour mark I was ready to throw in the towel. But I stuck with it and it does get better in the last twenty minutes or so. Cedric the Entertainer, Missi Pyle, Hayes MacArthur, and Kym Whitley are all more amusing than the movie deserves. Jaime Pressly is terrible. Gabriel Iglesias is one tired Mexican joke after another. The humor is over the top and often gross. It sets out to top the first movie in crudeness. Why this was the goal is beyond me but I was worried it would be. The Wayans family seem to believe that comedy gets funnier as it gets nastier, which is why the vast majority of their work is bottom-of-the-barrel garbage. See it if you like your humor as lowbrow as it can possibly get.
It's easy to understand the mixed feelings and harsh reviews. This is no Driving Miss Daisy. You are in Wayans World and if you don't know what that means, you probably don't belong there.
Surpassing the ridiculous to almost the sublime, in moments. Expect boat loads of bodily functions, indescribable scenes of coarse silliness and at least 2 ways to kill a dog. Oh, and a set piece 'cock fight' (no spoilers).
More than just a series of gags, there is effort on display from all involved. Wayans screeches and mugs to the camera while we explore race issues and flatuence.
Your enjoyment or repulsion will depend entirely on your expectations. If you like the Wayans brand, it's far from the worst. It's no 'Don't be a menace...' or an early Scary Movie; still, a riot which hits the target. Bullseye it is not.
I give it 5.3 farts out of a soiling.

I didn't want to give 7/10, but 6/10. The main reason is because most people didn't quite appreciate this movie.
This is just another form of comedy (such as "meet the spartans") which "most" people don't want to understand. The kind of movie where you spoil everything, really everything and it turns out to be really hilarious!
You can't go to the cinema and watch this film and expect nice little laughs like other typical Hollywood comedies. This is totally different.
Compared to the previous episode, well many similar sequences. Won't place spoilers, but quite repeating. Still very funny.
The main actor did a wonderful job at making this movie really funny.
The cast consists of more or less same people from the 1st episode.
Contains plenty of swearing, racial words, very direct interracial swearing, some nudity, violence.
Mixed up parody of several movies together, all bundles into having a good time laughing. Never had such a laugh with typical Hollywood comedy.
If you didn't laugh at the beginning of this movie, well, don't continue, you won't like it. But if you had a laugh, then just don't blink :D
Cheers, an absolute must-watch when u want some good laughs.

This is such a misunderstood film. I found it to be really funny. I can see why a lot of people do not get the humor in this film but for the people that does you will find a lot of laughs... especially Marlon's solo work with just the doll in the scenes... for example the argument that he gets into with the doll is really funny because it is so real... it is the exact same argument and the same stages of an argument that most men and women have been through. I do not understand how so many people call this film unwatchable... I know that my sense of humor is dark and I find a lot of things funny that your average person does not but I love scary movie 1 and 2 , love films like superbad or spaceballs... and I can see that this film isnt a classic like those but it still has some very funny material and I respect Marlon as a comedian more and more with every film of his I see.

- TriviaPierre Daniel, who had a brief role in the film sued Marlon Wayans for racial harassment. This was after Wayans posted a side by side photo comparing him to Cleveland Brown from Les Griffin (1999). The case was thrown out after the judge pointed out Daniel does in fact look like Cleveland Brown.
- Goofs(at around 51 mins) When Malcolm is trying to tell Megan and her kids about the ghosts and demon possessions, Becky is shown recording him with her cell phone. When the camera is in front of Megan you see the cell phone. But when the camera angle changes to looking over her shoulder at Malcolm, the cell phone disappears.
