Fred 2: Night of the Living Fred Fred 2: Night of the Living Fred

Fred 2: Night of the Living Fred (stylized as FЯED 2: Night of the Living FЯED) is a 2011 independent comedy film. The film is the sequel to the 2010 film Fred: The Movie, based on the adventures of Fred Figglehorn, a character created and played by Lucas Cruikshank for Cruikshank's YouTube channel. It is a Halloween themed sequel. Jennette McCurdy, who played Bertha in the original Fred, did not return and is replaced by Daniella Monet. John Cena returns as Mr. Figglehorn (Fred's imaginary father), and Jake Weary returns to play Kevin. Supah Ninjas star Carlos Knight co-stars as Kevin's friend and partner. Pixie Lott, who played Judy in the first film, did not return and therefore her character was written out of the plot; it is revealed by Fred that they broke up and she was the one to break up with him, proving they went out following the events of the previous film.

    Fred 2 wasn't as I intended it to be...
    Daniella Monet should had replaced Bertha in Fred 2. Jennette McCurdy was incredible in that role... wait, am I still reviewing a Fred movie?
    Kevin is still the funniest character though..

    Now, I will start off saying it's not pure shit like the first and this has its moments. But it's bad.

    I want to apologize for inserting this into your stream. However, I watched it, and I am logging it.

    This is even the second Fred movie I've seen. Much like that other time, the grandkids picked this for us to watch one day while I was babysitting. Every generation has some stupid movies that it likes even though they know it's stupid, and this is one for a certain age, I guess. And man, is it stupid. Still, the kids get quite a kick out of it, for whatever cause.

    And I was surprised to see some actual recognizable actors in it. John Cena, sure. But Siobhan Fallon should have better things to do. Likewise Ariel Winter, who I recognized from being in the sitcom Modern Family.

    (also hard to believe this is the longest write-up of a viewing that I've yet done here)

    A sequel that improves and recasts a majority of it's stars whilst actually managing to squeeze a decent amount of laughs is good in y book...if that made any sense at all. Fred 2 still stars Lucas Cruikshank as the protagonist and this time around believes his new music teacher is a vampire. Cruikshank doesn't add many new dimensions to the role, but for the first time ever you manage to sympathise with him (you remember the piano recital scene and when he's in Deviln's house). The movie has the usual problems a Fred movie has and some of the cast (such as Ariel Winter) seem unnecessary. The directing, editing and writing is vastly improved and I just have to…

    After I declared Fred: The Movie the worst film ever made I was informed that a TV sequel also existed. Whilst I should be old enough to know better my morbid curiosity got the better of me and I had to check it out. I actually ended up watching it straight after Roberto Rossellini’s Germany Year Zero. A strange double-bill you may think but both are dark and traumatic experiences in their own unique ways.

    Surprisingly, Fred 2 manages what so few sequels do and actually improves on the original. I guess when you are competing with the worst film in existence it becomes easier to marginally better it. Maybe I have been dulled by Fred’s unique charms but he…

    Better than the 1st movie.

    Someone had to pick up the Ernest/Pee-Wee/Grimley man-child weirdo mantle and this kid did it. Yes, his YouTube videos are awful, but his kids' movies continue to surprise me with more laughs per runtime than some of the comedies aimed directly at my age group.
