If ever there was a Worst Sequel Ever, it would have to be Highlander 2: The Quickening. Oh my that sucked in a spectacular fashion


Hear hear! You are as right as can be.

Highlander 2 was absolutely sucktacular.

If I recall correctly, Sean Connery managed to block its release in the U.S. for several years after it hit the theaters in Europe.

I remember wondering why he was "being a jerk" until it was finally released here.
Then I understood completely (and no longer blame him in the slightest).

Also, according to the Wikipedia link you posted, the director of Highlander 2 walked out of his own premier after 15 minutes!


...though legend has it that the entire cast of "Manos: Hands of Fate" slunk out of the middle of their premier -- appalled at the utter badness of it all.

ISTR that Highlander 3,4, The Series, etc. etc. all pretended like "Highlander 2" never existed.
