Are they really getting better?


This is the first time I see a franchise getting better ratings from movie to movie.

Killjoy 1 - 2.5
Killjoy 2 - 3.2
Killjoy 3 - 4.8
Killjoy 4 - 5.1

They should be more like the first 3, serious movies with little comedy unlike pt.4
.

3 and 4 are definitely drastically superior to the first two, with much better production value.

3 and 4 are really entertaining with Killjoy and his team of killers. 2 best fullmoon movies made in years.

Did someone really just accuse the first three films of being more serious than Killjoy Goes To Hell?
Anyone else find that statement to be really clueless? It's bothering me. HAHA

I agree. The Killjoy films may be the only movie series in which each film is better than the last. I mean none of them are great or anything but I still feel like the series gets better as it goes on.

I thought the first film was downright terrible, far too stupid to even enjoy in a "so bad, it's good" way. Pretty much everything about it sucked. Then the second film was awful too but a slight improvement over the original. I gave up after that and didn't even bother when I heard they made a third film years later. But then I gave it a chance more recently and found that, while it wasn't anywhere near a top notch Full Moon film, it was actually a lot of fun and had much better acting, dialogue, and effects than the first two. Then I saw Killjoy Goes to Hell and thought it surpassed Part 3, I had a blast with that one. I haven't seen Killjoy's Psycho Circus yet but I really want to, mostly to see if it continues that's streak and ends up being the best film in the series yet.

Are there any other franchises, horror, or otherwise, that get better as they go on? Puppet Master, also from Full Moon, started out that way with the first three films but not so much after that.
