The Jerk, Too (1984) - DIRECT FROM HELL REVIEW
Thursday, 5 March, 2026

🔥 DIRECT FROM HELL REVIEW: The Jerk, Too (1984) 🔥 This week on All2ReelToo, we descend Direct From Hell to revisit one of the most infamous comedy sequels ever made—The Jerk, Too. Was this follow-up a misunderstood oddity… or did it earn its place in cinematic purgatory? Spoiler: we have thoughts. Mark Blankfield steps into the shoes (and wild innocence) of Navin Johnson as he leaves home for a cross-country adventure that quickly goes off the rails. What starts as a heartfelt trip to Los Angeles for the wedding of his pen pal Marie takes a sharp detour when Navin crosses paths with Diesel, the charismatic leader of a hobo gang. Before you can say “optimum timing,” Navin’s card-playing skills land him smack in the middle of Las Vegas chaos. We break down the plot twists, questionable creative choices, and whether The Jerk, Too ever stood a chance living in the shadow of the original. Is it a cult curiosity… or a sequel best left forgotten? Tune in and find out. 🎭 Cast Highlights Mark Blankfield as Navin Johnson Ray Walston as Diesel Robert Sampson as Van Buren Patricia Barry as Mrs. Van Buren Barrie Ingham as Carl the Butler Stacey Nelkin as Marie Van Buren Jean LeClerc as Count Marco Thalmus Rasulala as Crossroads Pat McCormick as Dudley Bill Saluga as Shoes Mabel King as Mama Johnson Lina Raymond as Cheetah Johnson William Smith as Suicide Pete Schrum as Ugly Eddie Lainie Kazan as Card Player 🎙️ Laughs, deep dives, and cinematic sins await. #All2ReelToo #DirectFromHellReview #TheJerkToo #BadMoviePodcast #MoviePodcast #ComedySequels #CultCinema #SoBadItsGood #80sMovies #FilmReview #MovieDeepDive Listen now: all2reeltoo.com 🎬 Support the show: Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/c/cullenpark/membership Merch: https://www.teepublic.com/user/cullenpark 🎙️ Catch Mike's captivating chats on: Pop Culture Junkie discussing the 1983 V Miniseries: https://popculturejunkie.com/podcast/looking-at-v-with-michael-e-cullen/ Movie Smash Podcast discussing #GhostWorld (2001): https://www.movie-smash.com/episodes/episode/32534003/episode-18-ghost-world-2001-special-guest-michael-e-cullen-ii-from-the-all2reeltoo-podcast Film Talk with Jordan Ramirez, chatting about #Once (2007): https://youtu.be/fubJGxZ3NSU?si=ptSlTewm72LTVspQ Spoiler Alert with Ryan Moore and Matt discussing #MadameWeb: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vRXjJGtzdlU Spoiler Alert with Ryan Moore discussing #CaptainAmericaBraveNewWorld: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JHvsYPsvLBM&t=1471s The Family Fright Night Horror Podcast: https://open.spotify.com/episode/7kstbpDOnLQeI8BQGLzina 🎶 Enjoy eerie tunes by host Matthew Haase - https://www.youtube.com/@LimitlessMatt 💰 Support us on Patreon - https://www.patreon.com/CullenPark, shop our spooktacular merch - http://tee.pub/lic/CullenPark, and catch Mike on The Nerdball Podcast - https://pod.fo/e/ba2aa 🙏 Help fund our friend Mark Klein's funeral: https://www.gofundme.com/f/honoring-mark-kleins-legacy 💪 Make a difference with these organizations: Palestine Children's Relief Fund: https://www.pcrf.net/information-you-should-know/how-to-help-palestine.html Trans Lifeline: https://translifeline.org/ The Hotline: https://www.thehotline.org/ Matthew Perry Foundation: https://matthewperryfoundation.org/ The Trevor Project: https://www.thetrevorproject.org/ HRC Foundation: https://www.hrc.org/hrc-story/hrc-foundation Point Foundation: https://pointfoundation.org/ Direct Relief: https://www.directrelief.org/ NAACP Legal Defense Fund: https://www.naacpldf.org/ Black Voters Matter Fund: https://www.blackvotersmatterfund.org Tahirih Justice Center: https://www.tahirih.org/ Mona Foundation: https://www.monafoundation.org/ Learn more about your ad choices.
