New Horror Flick: Son of Carter
By
You’ve heard of “Son of Sam,” “Bride of Frankenstein,” and “Bride of Chuckie“?
Now meet “Son of Carter” (or is that, “Son of Jimmuh”?).
Yes, it’s the latest horror movie sequel, happening in a Nevada near you. It’s filled with the comedy of disastrous double digit inflation, the drama of hostages in Iran, the thriller of having a “kick me” sign around the world, the hilarity of high taxes, the excitement of long lines at the pump. You’ll laugh. You’ll cry . . . . Well, that was the original. Here’s our summary (who needs a sequel?).
And we hear the sequel is similar. The son of the Peanut Farmer Prez a/k/a “The Man From P.L.A.I.N.S.”, Jack Carter, is running for the U.S. Senate from Nevada. He looks WAY too much like the original. Plus, there’s none of the fun of the late Billy Carter, his beer, and the Libyan payoff from Muammar Khaddafi.
Of note, Jimmuh Jr. is going on a “listening tour” of Nevada. We know of only two listening tours by politicos in recent years–Hillary Clinton in New York and Bush aide . Both were repellent.
As we’ve said often on this site, we frown on remakes and sequels. Is there really anyone that wants to return to the “Malaise Days” of the man who “liberated” Iran of the Shah and made “Peace” in the Middle East?

All I have to say is, given the fact that the entire civilized world is having serious problems with the same country his father gained a bad reputation for backing down to (among other thngs), he couldn’t have picked a worst time to run for office. Iran is even more dangerous now than it was then, so between that and the fact that there’s no Ronald Reagan around, I’d say this is one sequel that’s scarier than the original.
