Fantom Kiler 2 (1999)
For Fantom Kiler 2, which delves into the origins of its eponymous maniac, director Roman Nowicki (AKA Trevor Barley) once again assembles the cream of Poland's stripping industry for more wanton sleaze and deviancy, only this time around proceedings prove far less interesting thanks to a distinct lack of humour and Nowicki's irritating tendency to linger far too long on each and every scene (even the most lurid of acts are reduced to utter tedium, and when a hot, nekkid woman with live jump leads clamped to her tits starts to get boring, then there's something seriously wrong!). (BA_Harrison IMDB)
Against popular opinion - I really dug the first FANTOM KILER joint. I thought that it was stylish, sexy, sleazy, misogynistic, and funny - and that's a hard combo to pull together successfully - but I feel that it pulled it off pretty damn well. FK2 is decent, but lacks a good bit of the "charm" of the first film. The "style" is still there, but this entry tries to take itself a little too seriously while still delivering the sleaze - and it doesn't work as well... (EVOL666 IMDB)
