The Bradley brothers, Belial and Duane, whom we believed to be dead at the end of the first episode after seeing them fall from the window of their house, actually survived and are determined to eliminate anyone who makes fun of them. Unfortunately, Henenlotter also falls into the "trap" of sequels and directs a film that is a sort of bad copy of the previous one. More of a comedy than a horror film, "Basket Case 2", except for some excellent splatter sequences, offers nothing new to those who had the opportunity to admire the first film in the series. Only recommended for the most die-hard fans of the explosive director; very hard to find.
