Yep, the first one was loaded with plenty of black humor. The second one went into overload mode, which made it look much inferior. The black guy wasnt funny. People might have laughed out loud at his antics, I didn't. Some of the gags were real eye-rollers. The first one is one of my modern-day faves, this one left a lot to be desired.

You're meant to nitpick and analyze the plot and thematic devices used in the film about as much as you should for a porno. Oddly enough all the films in question involve an inordinate amount of flying semen...

i understand perfectly that the sole point of these films were to lampoon the genre and push the envelope of bad taste as far as possible.
in the fisrt film it succeeded. it felt fresh and fun.
the second film felt like it was made by giggling school boys trying to offend their grandparents.
i get what they were doing - but an endless string of gross out set pieces designed to offend (and aimed at a demographic that have already seen it all) collapsed on itself, taking me out of the movie completely.
feast 2 was the iceage 2 of horror films.
more isnt always better.

My exact thoughts. Thanks, Urge.
