10 Ridiculously Awful Sequels To Classic Movies You Didn't Know Existed

8. American Psycho 2: All American Girl

American Psycho introduced mainstream audiences to a young Christian Bale years before he'd go on to save Gotham from destruction as The Caped Crusader. American Psycho 2 introduced absolutely no one to Mila Kunis, partly because she was already a budding star as a cast member on That 70s Show, but mostly this abomination went straight to video.

The plot is as ludicrous as it is surprisingly thin: A college student, Kunis, goes on a murder spree to eliminate her competition for a job as a teaching assistant to William Shatner, a position that she hopes will land her a career as an FBI agent. No part of that last sentence was made up. That really happened.

In this, we find the film's flimsy connection to the first movie. Mila's first kill - at only 12-years-old - is a hastily cast stand-in for Patrick Bateman, the psychotic star of the original.

Kunis doesn't have nearly as much fun in the role as Bale, and the whole murder-by-numbers template quickly relegates this movie to the B-movie slasher flick category. In the end, there was really no reason to call this a sequel, except that it certainly helped with the DVD sales.
