Great Moments in Stock Footage: 'Mortal Kombat II'

While not necessarily a Horror movie, this film features a Bestiality and an evil centaur man. I think that is enough to qualify, don't you?

Today I want to address a major problem with the sequel to 1995's Mortal Kombat. It is...

Mortal Kombat: Annihilation

The film begins with a quick recap of the first film, via footage of our heroes fighting and some special effects going off. All fine and good, even if the first film is crappy and re-using footage of it is pretty sad.

As soon as we come back from the cliffhanger ending of the original, we are greeted with...an almost entirely new cast of actors playing the parts. This puts Subspecies II to shame! They recast Sonya, Jonny Cage and Raiden. Hell, they would have recast Goro's corpse if it was possible!

As bad as this is, it would not be so terrible if it were not for showing us how different they looked in the intro. Good job, guys.

Up next, Ed Wood uses stock footage...of himself. Stay tuned...
