Plot Summary
This time out, our two vacuous but loveable teenagers are thrown off a cliff and sent to Hell, where they are tortured with a succession of stylishly realized nightmares. The duo need to escape the fires of Hades in enough time to make it to the "battle of the bands" their rock group has entered. In order to free themselves they engage the "Grim Reaper" in a gut-wrenching series of contests testing the limits of human discipline and intelligence. Victorious, they return to Earth to battle the pair of evil robotic doubles who originally killed them, and have since taken their places -- wreaking havoc with the dudes' personal lives.

"...Hugely enjoyable....An ingeniously surreal and quite ridiculous world..." 01/01/1992 p.38-9New York Times
"...A hip, friendly universe....Played with such loose-jointed aplomb..." 07/19/1991 p.C10 Entertainment Weekly
"...Fantastical..." -- Rating: A- Los Angeles Times
"...BOGUS JOURNEY is better than the original: more imaginative, more opulent, wilder and freer, more excitingly visualized..." 07/19/1991 p.F1 Washington Post 8 of 10
...This is a teenage screwball comedy with all its screws proudly loose... There's nothing bogus about this locomotivated follow-up; it's a truly excellent adventure, hilariously inventive, greased-lightning paced and dumb-bunny brilliant. - Hal Hinson
