I honestly can't remember it, nor Spiders 2. It's been years since i watched any of them. The set i have is pictured below. From what i recall Boggy Creek 2 was the worst by far. I think i liked all the shark, octopus, croc and spider ones. One of the Octopus ones almost has a budget as it attacks the city of San Francisco (i think)

I think all of the set will get a rewatch over the next few days.

Shark Attack 2
A water park gets a Great White, but the ****er escapes leaving it to a marine biologist, some woman angry that a shark killed her sister and not Steve Irwin to kill the shark.
Out of the 3 films, this one is the weakest by far. From the acting to the plastic shark they used early on in the film. It just seems lazy. Even the obligatory sex scene is rubbish, it makes that one in showgirls look arthouse.

From what i remember of the film it was ok CGI effects weren't the greatest.

Iron Sky: The Coming Race
20 years after a nuclear war, the remnants of mankind are living on the nazi moonbase, our heroines mother is dying and has to gain some crystals from the centre of the earth where they discover some of the evilest people - from thatcher to Steve jobs - are alien lizards who are bossed by Hitler.
It's been seven years since Iron Sky and ever since the teaser came out I have been excited for this. Was it worth the hype, for the most part yes but at the same time it kinda went a bit over the top for my liking. Still an enjoyable film though.

Must admit i thought Iron Sky was really poor. It promised so much but delivered so little.

Two hours of nothing, a good idea but a bad execution. Gareth Evans should stick to the action movies.

Even though it's kind of a rip-off from The Wicker Man, i thought Apostle was enjoyable.

Down in the Valley (2005)

Interesting take on the cowboy film with Ed Norton playing a drifter who convinces LA girl Evan Rachel Wood that he's from the wild west, but her father (David Morse) is less convinced. Rather sweet to begin with in it's unusual take on relationships but things take a turn for the sinister during the second half.

I'm not sure which way this film will go. It could be totally forgettable or it may well stay with me and become a bit of a cult classic. Time will tell.

I loved the first Iron Sky, it was campy and irreverent but I'm very cautious about watching the sequel...
