The sequel continues in Sharknado fashion.Guttenberg travels to Miami to save Florida from the gargantulantula. Michael Winslow, also from Police Academy fame is better utilized in this film, at one time he even imitates Scotty from Star Trek. There are many films which are spoofed, perhaps the most famous and notable is "Dr. Stangelove." The franchise is attracting better stars than before, and will soon be an A-lister cameo haven.Asylum/SyFy made for TV

If you've seen "Lavalantuas" (the first film), then you know what to expect and believe me, there's not much different going on here. Guttenberg is once again trying to save his family and the city from giant lava based tarantulas. Just as camp, tongue in cheek, and ridiculous as the first film, don't expect an award winning experience or believable CGI/storyline/acting.

I've never seen the first one, but I know it's the next Sharknado franchise type thing that SyFy want to get off the ground, and after all Colton had a cameo in The Fourth Awakens.So why not? The Sharknado films are a load of rubbish, but they know they are, and that's what makes them so watchable, they get sillier and sillier.So Guttenberg was good in the eighties, he had the intelligence to bail on Police Academy when they were just becoming unbearable, so it can't be that terrible. Then I remembered about halfway through he went all action star in 1996, grew a mullet and made a film called Airborne.20 years later....The very difficult to say spiders have hit the beach where Colton's step-daughter, Raya, is taking a break from school. Now an A-list movie star (the best joke of the film), Colton walks off the set of his latest blockbuster to save her. Armed with specialised weapons, Colton, his personal assistant, and his best friend, Marty, race to save the residents of Florida......And it's a lot of silly, wink at the camera rubbish....but I couldn't stop watching it. I don't know whether it was me wanting Winslow to start making his trademark noises, or getting the quiet one from Police Academy to do that aggressive shout she does when no one listens to her, or to see what film they could reference next, I couldn't stop watching it.As expected, the effects are truly terrible, and a lot of the extras running on the beach just seem to be having too much fun to be fearing for their life, but this is what adds to the car crash element aspect of the film.You know its terrible, but you can't help but watch.Guttenberg is way over the top, Winslow looks ill for so,e reason, and the films they reference just don't make any sense. One minute it's Crocodile Dundee, the next its Miami Vice (talk about topical).It's not got the cult value of Sharknado, but it's a lot of fun, although you won't admit it to anyone......will you?

The Santa Monica Mountains were finally rid of fire spewing giant tarantulas with major help from action movie star Colton West (Steve Guttenberg), making him a hero for saving Los Angeles. Now while filming another big money movie this time in Florida, Colton will walk off the set with his friends to answer a distress call from his step-daughter Raya (Michele Weaver), sunbathing in Fort Lauderdale. Those lava spewing spiders are now attacking Florida. West will be forced to compete with the military, led by Colonel Jester (Martin Kove), to kill the biggest, baddest of them all...gargantulantula.Neil Elman writes and Nick Simon directs this spider fest (filmed mostly in New Orleans) that features: Michael Winslow, Lorynn York, RJ Walker, Josh Sussman, Jimmy Bellinger, Eric Etebari and Marion Ramsey.
