Doug and Carol travel to the port city of Milan, where they have to solve a series of murders committed by a masked slasher at an Italian Fertility Festival. And Soviet Spies. INTERPOL’s there, too.

The first one was campy but it felt way less self-aware

Less self-aware? They had a shot that just said "VFX: Car on fire" in the first few minutes of the movie.

Ha, forgot about that. Maybe this trailer just feels over the top

To be fair this movie was crowdfunded and people have been itching for an update. The trailer feels like it’s designed to play to people on Kickstarter and at New York Comic Con (where it debuted and the room went nuts). Those people are all very in on the joke.
