Murphy's Law

Imagine that you are making a movie and everything that can go wrong does. This is the premise of Le Fear II: Le Sequel. Director Carlos Revalos is talked into remortgaging his house to produce his new horror movie. On shooting day the so-called film set is what appears to be a tiny second-hand trailer parked by the busy street. The unprofessional movie crew is made of the worst people to ever be on set. Le Fear II: Le Sequel is a funny take on what can go wrong with a nymphomaniac make-up artist or an Avatar-special effects wannabe. The documentary-style camera follows the very slow breakdown of the director. The plot is original enough to surprise you at first with its bizarre characters but I believe it would have made a better short than a feature-length movie. The story drags the viewer along for longer than needed. In the beginning of the movie, I obviously rooted for the director but as he tripped over the same obstacles again and again, I started to think he deserved it. Le Fear II: Le Sequel is an unpretentious comedy made from an original and simple idea and featuring a very eclectic cast. We can only expect the worst to happen to Carlos as he will try to get his bloody horror movie selected for the Cannes festival in Le Fear III: Le Cannes.
