Attention, les vampires reviennent terroriser Montréal dans Karmina 2 ! Cette comédie d’horreur, signée Gabriel Pelletier (La Vie après l’amour), s’avère toutefois moins originale et poétique que le premier volet, devenu depuis sa sortie en vidéo une sorte de film-culte.
Cinq ans ont passé et les vampires vivent maintenant comme des humains, grâce à la potion préparée par le douanier québécois Ghislain Chabot (Gildor Roy). Après une chicane de ménage, son épouse névrosée (Diane Lavallée) lui vole la précieuse recette. Danger à l’horizon : Chabot appelle à l’aide Vlad Sanguinez (Yves Pelletier de feu Rock et Belles Oreilles), ce Dracula contemporain recyclé en fraudeur débauché. Le duo tentera tant bien que mal de récupérer le grimoire et de juguler la menace aux longues dents.
Malgré une brochette de personnages colorés (dont Julien Poulin en trafiquant véreux), de beaux costumes et des effets spéciaux honorables, Gabriel Pelletier ne réussit pas à rassasier le spectateur. À part Diane Lavallée, succulente en épouse délaissée devenue vampire méchante et sans scrupules, la plupart des acteurs se contentent d’un jeu plutôt caricatural. Si Karmina se voulait une jolie fable sur l’amour, le dernier volet s’apparente plutôt à une suite de sketches assemblés autour d’une intrigue prometteuse, mais mal exploitée. Dommage. --Julie Parent

Karmina 2, the sequel to Karmina,
By
This review is from: Karmina 2 (K2) (DVD)
Just to let readers know this is NOT K2, the story about some mountaineers. It's the comedic Love After Death tale of Karmina, the Transylvanian vampiress who fled to Montreal to escape an arranged marriage. Vlad, her prospective husband, was sent by her parents to track her down and bring her home but along the way they both found they had more to live for and each found love, albeit not to each other. This is their continuing tale of involving the friends they made along the way and the essential liquid that keeps them immortal among mortals. A happy comedy well-played, especially the role of Vlad reprised by Yves Pelletier. The dialogue looses nothing in the translation from Transylanian to French to English. Watch for the outakes at the end.
