Crazy Fat Ethel 2 [1987]

[Cross-posted on the Bad Movie Night Facebook page.]

Last night was another double feature since the two movies in question didn't even bother to stretch their running time to the standard hour and a half minimum. The first movie was "Crazy Fat Ethel 2" also known as "Criminally Insane 2". Having not seen "Crazy Fat Ethel" you might think that the plot would be a little hard to follow but thankfully no less than 75% of the movie is flashbacks to the first one. The plot is really just about how Ethel, who is in a mental institution after murdering a bunch of people in a hunger rage, gets sent to a halfway house where, no surprise, she kills everyone in a hunger rage. In fact, the plot can be summed up well with Ethel's first line, a reaction to the pudding cup the hospital gave her for dessert: IT'S TOO LITTLE! There's also an inmate with a fetish for feeling up walls and excessive use of red paint.

Thankfully, instead of leaving the halfway house, Ethel decides to pass herself off as the owner of the house . . . to a cop who she had already spoken to. Still, leaves space open for "Crazy Fat Ethel 3"!
