Weakest in the series

Warning: Spoilers
I use to really enjoy the killjoy series. While not that particularly good, they are still plenty amusing. I had been looking for this, the fifth in the series, for awhile now, and finally found it on Prime Video. I early sat down to watch it and.....ended up slightly disappointed. Having finally made it to Earth, Killjoy is pretty much broke. Staring in his own show, "Psycho Circus" with Freakshow and Punchy, he has a doctor on the show that basically says he does t exist,even though hes sitting right in front of him, who he promptly executes. After a fake batty boop who replaces the old one after shes left killjoys posse appears on his show, the boys from eebys magical weed shop (which Full Moon fans will temember from the Evil Bong series) who sponsor Killjoys show tell him they want the original Batty back, the three good on a search for her. Meanwhile, Beazelbub, the judge in Hell that Killjoy escaped from in the previous movie, wants revenge and schemes to get him back in his grasps. This entry in the series has a lot more humor in it than the previous four did, and suffered a little from it. Trying to portray Killjoy as a disenfranchised working stiff doesn't really work. One of the best moments in the movie is when Killjoy inyerviews Trent Haaga, who has played Killjoy since the second movie, and plays him in this as well. This movie has its moments, but overall fails. Watch for cameos from characters in other full moon movies
