13 Awful Movie Sequel Titles We Wish Were Scrapped

8. The Haunting In Connecticut 2: Ghosts Of Georgia

Aside from being a sequel to a movie nobody really ever wanted a sequel to, the The Haunting in Connecticut 2: Ghosts of Georgia is best distinguished for having one of the most idiotically ill-conceived titles in movie history, sequel or no. So, this is a follow-up to a movie about a haunting in Connecticut, right? But it's set in Georgia? Then why is it called The Haunting in Connecticut 2? Why isn't it just called The Haunting in Georgia? Apparently the whole "Haunting in Connecticut" title was so crucial to the movie's "success" that they couldn't drop it, despite the original movie only being a minor hit in the first place. It's certainly not a marquee title that anyone cared about, especially considering that Ghosts of Georgia was a low-budget sequel that was released straight-to-DVD in most places anyway. If it had been given a major theatrical roll-out, perhaps the dumb title might have made more financial sense. Instead, there's pretty much no logic to it whatsoever.
