- 2007
Terror Toons 2: The Sick and Silly Show is a horror-comedy movie released in 2007, directed by Joe Castro. The film is a sequel to the 2002 movie Terror Toons and features a mix of live-action and animated characters. The story follows a group of college students who find a mysterious DVD in a local pawn shop. Intrigued by the title, "The Sick and Silly Show," they decide to watch it, and soon they find themselves trapped in a nightmarish world of cartoons and vengeful toons. One by one, the students are captured by the animated characters and subjected to gruesome acts of violence.
The film features the voice talents of several famous horror actors such as Brinke Stevens, who plays a grandmother character who warns the students about the dangers of the DVD, and David Alan Graf, who voices the main villain of the movie, Dr. Carnage. The live-action cast is led by Shane Ballard, who plays the protagonist, a college student named Casey.
The movie starts with Casey and his friends, including his love interest Samantha (played by Emma Bing) and his best friend Kyle (Bart Burson), wandering into a pawn shop run by a creepy old man. There, they find the DVD, and the old man warns them not to watch it. Despite his warning, the group decides to take it back to their dormitory to watch it.
As they settle in to watch the DVD, they soon realize that something is wrong. The characters in the cartoon are alive and start to come out of the screen. The students are quickly sucked into the world of the cartoon, and they soon find themselves in a twisted and terrifying version of Disneyland.
The students are horrified to find that the cartoon characters are evil and bent on killing them. Casey and his friends must try to survive the night and find a way back to the real world. Along the way, they encounter a cast of gory and violent toons, including the aforementioned Dr. Carnage, his assistant Max Assassin, a killer teddy bear, and a group of bloodthirsty clowns.
The movie is a mix of horror and comedy. The violence is extreme, but also cartoonish and exaggerated. The humor is dark and often plays on the tropes of horror movies, such as the disembodied hand that keeps coming back to attack the students. The movie also features several nods to classic horror movies, such as Evil Dead and Night of the Living Dead.
The effects in the movie are a mix of practical effects and CGI. The live-action portions are shot on a low budget, but this actually adds to the charm of the movie, giving it a grainy and retro look. The animation, on the other hand, is top-notch, and the toons are rendered in a colorful and exaggerated style that is both creepy and engaging.
Overall, Terror Toons 2: The Sick and Silly Show is an entertaining and gory horror-comedy that will satisfy fans of both genres. The movie is not for everyone, but for those who enjoy a good dose of extreme violence and over-the-top humor, this film is a must-see. It's a fun and silly ride through a nightmare world of violent toons and cartoonish gore, perfect for a late-night viewing with friends.
