Bride of Frankenstein is an excellent one. Road Warrior too.

Evil Dead I'll give a pass on. Even more so because it bizarrely chose to be a "do-over" rather than a real sequel. It was funny as hell, but nowhere near as special as the first one, which was a pretty amazing use of no budget at all and one set. Not quite like Lifeboat, but damn, that guy's good.

Ah yes! Although I'm not so sure that European >= Original.

I didn't read the part that says as good or better, I don;'t like that part. To me a good sequal should be one that doesn't suck ass, those are rare enough.

It is rare to find a good sequel that doesn't suck ass, but the true test of a sequel is to outshine the original movie. Too many times movie producers simply spit out crap to ride the wave of the first movie, rarely do we find gems.

I think I see your point. The storyline of the original Terminator was better than the sequel and it's the special effects of Terminator 2 that make people believe it's the better film. While I personally think the first Terminator is the superior movie, I'm going to include Terminator 2 in the poll because so many people believe T2 to be better then the original.

I don't think the first Terminator is superior on any level. Quite the contrary.

Aliens is an excellent choice! I totally forgot about Aliens. I didn't like Temple of Doom but did enjoy Last Crusade. Technically Red Dragon is a prequel and I didn't like American Pie 2, but I'll give thought to any of those movies if others agree they should be included. I certainly don't want to be nominations nazi.
