Review of Trancers II: The Return of Jack Deth (1991) by Michael W — 03 May 2014
Holy crapola Batman this is....errr crapola! After the quite dreary first film we somehow got this quite dreadful sequel that pretty much scrapes the bottom of the barrel alright. Thomerson is back as 'Deth' again for some reason, obviously needing work and Helen Hunt is also back for a cameo as she's realised to get out.
The plot is totally muddled and all over the show, there is quite a nice sci-fi plot deep down in there somewhere (touch of 'Terminator' time jumping in the mix) but its being totally buried under a rotting B-movie. Laughable effects, terrible acting, really bad sets and props plus virtually no costumes what so ever, looks like Thomerson wore his own clothes. I might add the exploding ham scene was so bad it was brilliant.
Only Thomerson gives any reason to watch a tall, he can't save the film but he does inject a tiny amount of fun with his dry harsh tough guy performance.
'Don't worry ladies, they're biodegradable'.
