Mannequin 2: On The Move (1991)

Sequel to 1987 fish-out-of-water romcom that appears woodenly optimistic about that old thing called love.

Ghostbusters II (1989)

The sequel that played secondary to its merchandise. Ghostbusters II was unmemorable but left a legacy of commercial supernatural power that has immortalized it.

Splash, Too (1988)

Disney’s unloved and unwanted sequel is a rarity. A 1988 telemovie sequel that surfaced, disappeared and never returned.
