Mannequin On The Move retained two things from the original Mannequin film, the Oscar nominated song Nothing's Going To Stop Us Now and the one and only Hollywood played with same flamboyance by Meshach Taylor. The only reference to the previous film is when Meshach Taylor says on a couple of occasions that he's seen these strange goings on before.
In this story Kristy Swanson has been turned into a wooden statue, one incredibly lifelike one and it has a legend attached that in a thousand years her true love will be able to remove the enchanted necklace that made her a girl Pinocchio and she'll be a real live girl. That was in 991 and in 1991 William Ragsdale pulls the necklace off as easily as Arthur withdrew the sword from the stone.
In a thousand years Kristy has a lot to catch up on. But more than that Terry Kiser the sorcerer who did the deed back in medieval times is looking to steal the princess, wooden or alive, for his own nefarious Snidely Whiplash designs.
Like the first Mannequin the setting is another department store and Taylor steals every scene he was in. Not only did he have a green light from the director, he should have been issued a speeding ticket for overacting. Never mind it all works out well.
Not quite up to snuff as the original but still a lot of laughs.
