A Haunted House 2

a review by Kamurai

Really good watch, could watch again, and can recommend.

I'll easily watch anything with Jaime Lee Pressly in it, but Marlon Wayans is kind of the big treat in this. One of the reasons I liked the first movie is that they got back to the spirit of the original "Scary Movie" franchise before they took it from the Wayans.

There are a few jokes that just run too long, but over all the jokes are pretty funny and consistent, even doing call backs.

The movie rolls together several different paranormal tropes very well, and given some very short re-writes could have been a rather complex legitimate horror movie.
