HIGHLANDER II: THE QUICKENING - Sequel Summer

The weather’s getting nicer and the multiplexes are packed with IP, which can only mean one thing… It’s SEQUEL SUMMER!

Justin and Steve are spending the next three months exploring some of the worst #2s of all time—starting with the infamous cult disaster: Highlander II: The Quickening.

“There should have only been ONE!” pretty much sums up how the boys feel about it, especially since they got their hands on the notorious, out-of-print U.S. theatrical cut of this classic disasterpiece.

This version is somehow shorter and much worse than the fully restored cut. It’s a movie so bad, they invented the “Poochie” rule—retconning the main characters’ origin stories to explain that they’ve been aliens the whole time.

Yeah… It’s that bad.
