Review: A Haunted House 2

77. A Haunted House 2
I'm not going to spend much time discussing this film, simply because it doesn't deserve much thought being given to it. It boasts an incredibly bad, undeveloped script that could have been written in a weekend. The writers seem to have always opted for the first joke they came up with for any situation, never taking the time to see if it could be made funnier, or if there was another, better joke to be told.

This was one of the stupidest films I have ever seen in theatres, and I can honestly say that I did not laugh a single time. I may have cracked a smile once or twice, but even then, the jokes were pale imitations of those in other films. Some comedies take the approach of telling joke after joke, as if they were throwing pasta against the wall, hoping that at least some of it will stick. In this case, they forgot to even cook the pasta first. Every last strand bounced right off the wall.
