Shit: Chapter Two (2019 Video) User Reviews

Tolerable for a really short comedy spoof film

[Horst_In_Translation · 4/10 · 19 October 2019]

"Shit: Chapter Two" is an American 2-minute live action short film that of course spoofs the new Hollywood blockbuster sequel "It" (Chapter 2) and takes us into the neighborhood where more clowns are present than in your average neighborhood for sure. And not all of them have good intentions. The White clown who arrives early seems evil at first (and he looks like the original a bit, which is probably why we think so), but then is just friendly and will only halp in taking a picture. However, the Black folks in the neighborhood don't really get it and talk about him as if he was a threat or so (actually really funny real life reference, even if probably not intended), so in order to set things straight eventually, a Black guys dresses up as a clown and chases the other away (although he voted Obama). Funnily or "Funnily" the Black guy then collects money from the people living there, so he is kind of the real bad guy, even if the people don't seem to understand. But yeah, you could make some really nice real-life reference about skin color clouding people's judgments and the result is they are not capable to perceive who acts with honor and dignity towards them and who doesn't. But like I said, this was hardly the intention here, it's just supposed to be pointless fun. Also no violence or creepy moments whatsoever in here, so imdb is correct in listing this as a comedic (non-horror) short. Overall, an okay watch for the running time and one or two funny moments I guess, but by general standards, it is not really worth seeing, maybe only by fan film standards. I do think this is a bit disappointing though as prolific writer, director and actress Tiffany Tynes should be experienced enough by now to come up with better quality looking at everything she has worked on already. Maybe watch it if you really loved "It". Otherwise skip and you won't be missing much.
