Before any hopes and rose again, allow me to repeat myself... This is NOT about an ex-Terminator! There are NO walking puddles carrying pink slips!!
Fortunately, this movie does one-up it's predecessor, as the Exterminator actually USES the fucking flamethrower this time! Shell shocked 'Nam vet "Whitey" returns, reprising his role as self styled vigilante of New York City. this time to battle the evil "X" (Mario Van Fucking Peebles) and his new wave revolution group... BIG fucking deal. Whitey's ballet dancin' girlfriend gets raped and crippled, ruining her dreams of becoming a Broadway "superstar" and sending her into a tailspin of self loathing and bitterness. This sets Whitey and his friend Blackey2 on a rampage, turning the alleyways and dark tunnels of NYC into one big BBQ! On the menu? Roasted thug, charred punk, and street ribs (five charred gang bangers who's flesh has melted together).
With the aid of their souped up garbage truck, the two "take out the trash" (HAHA!... cuz... they're garbage men... and the punks are trash... because... they're so immoral... oh for Christ's sake! NEVERMIND!). Unfortunately, Blackey2 gets a case of "lead poisoning" (HAHA!... cuz he gets shot... and bullets are made of lead... and... shit, I need some new material). When Whitey's girlfriend is finally killed, he takes the garbage truck "up a notch" (I'm not even gonna bother) Mad Max style and, after wasting the gang, he booby traps X, blowing him up and impaling him on a steel spike. THE END... thank you Gods...
This actually wasn't too bad... it was like Men at Work if it had starred Charles Bronson and Richard Roundtree! Well, maybe not THAT good, but it was fun laughing at X, who looks like an out-of-work member of MC Hammer's entourage (you know, those guys who danced in the background)!
At this rate, they might have a GOOD Exterminator movie by the eighth installment! WAHOO! Though, without a third installment, I don't see an eighth coming anytime soon... Oh well, not exactly a "loss".
The Moral of the Story: More flamethrower means better ratings!
H.O.P.E.L.E.S.S. Rating: 
- Better than the original, featuring more violence and crazy flamethrower and super garbage truck entertainment for the whole family!
Sequel to: The Exterminator
