In this sequel, two juvenile detention officers must escort a group of criminally-inclined urban kids to the country where they are being forced to renovate a shelter for teens as punishment for their crimes. After one of them is shot by a local, the survivors seek refuge in the home of a voodoo woman, where they mistakenly summon legendary clown-faced demon Killjoy who begins hunting them down one by one.

The main characters are introduced by reading their rap sheet. A group of youthful offenders are being transported in a van to a work site 200 miles away. They start out in the morning and by night fall they still haven't arrived. The van breaks down and they go for help.After a mishap, they come across a house of a woman versed in the black arts. One of the offenders tells us the story of Killjoy, then he somehow arrives at the scene.The characters in this film are stiff. Killjoy is overly animated with cliche "Freddy" style lines. His humor is the sole attraction of the film, which makes it slightly better than the first feature, but not as good as the third one.Parental Guide: F-bombs, no sex, no nudity.
Just for the record, I hated the first Killjoy. It was lame, cheesy, cheaply made, unscary, annoying and very unoriginal(anybody else get reminded of Stephen King's It?). This sequel is just as bad, but apart from some sequences that has cinematography that even a faulty mobile phone could've done better, it is not as cheap to look at. But it has everything I hate still about the first Killjoy. Killjoy himself is incredibly annoying rather than creepy, complete with cheesy lines(I hate sloppy seconds? *groan*) and lame killings, plus you can tell often that the film did not know what to do with him. The rest of the acting is next to non-existent, and they are not helped by clichéd characters, mind-numbingly embarrassing dialogue and a limply paced and unsurprising story that relies on cheap, predictable scares and no thrills. So all in all, a sequel that manages to be just as bad as its predecessor. 1/10 Bethany Cox
Thats not saying much. This Killjoy film has better cinematography and is more professional looking than the last. That doesn't mean it's more professional sounding. That horrible last film was about gangsters killing a kid and then being haunted by a voodoo clown. I thought the guy that played Killjoy in the last one was a bad actor, but wow!!! This Killjoy is honestly the downright worst actor I've seen in any movie, and I've seen a lot of movies. Thed last movie the clown came in about 15 minutes in, this one's shorter and the clown doesn't even come in until 40 minutes in, and it's only 65 minutes long!!! I give it a 2 because the acting from some characters is OK.
Suburban kids meet the forest. Killjoy is better in this part. He is more wicked and stronger as well. Nevertheless, most part of the acting is bad as well, like in the first one. Sometimes the characters say things to each other that do not make sense and are not convincing. I made an error to watch this one sober. You'll probably enjoy it more if you are not ;-). If you did not already stop loving clowns after the first movie, you definitely will after the second.....;-)Problem kids and their watchers are on their way to a camp in the forest. And what a coincidence, their car broke right in the middle of a forest and.....at night? That's just their luck. They find a house and one got shot, one of the watchers stays behind (why I do not know) and the rest eventually finds another house. In that house a voodoo priestess lives.....but she is not responsible for the resurrection of Killjoy. Who is it then? Well, you better watch the movie and find out for yourselves....
