I like the sequel as much as or more than the first film. As you say, it has jack all to do with the original in anything but name, but it carries forward a sense of weirdness. It's quite downbeat and depressing in tone, though. There's a second sequel which I haven't seen - don't intend to, sounds a bit lame from descriptions I've read.
