CANKLEHAMMER II
Months after his mysterious disappearance, the hammer-wielding vigilante Cankles McJeggings resurfaces to terrorize Sydney’s Botanical Gardens. Violent midnight assaults on suspected predators have the city divided once more: some call him a necessary force against evil, while others condemn him as an extrajudicial killer.
But this time, Hannu Pussikalja—a Finnish-Australian activist for transgender rights—arrives equipped with more than just courage. Armed with a curious new ally—a trusty, high-powered vacuum cleaner—Hannu patrols the Gardens’ dimly lit pathways to shine a light on Cankles’s brand of vigilante “justice” and protect those he targets. While the vacuum initially seems like an odd choice of defense, Hannu’s tech-savvy modifications and quick thinking soon prove it can do more than suck up dust.
Detective Tina Vortex, who once came close to capturing Cankles, finds herself caught in a race against time as Hannu’s unorthodox tactics draw them closer—and more dangerously so—to the vigilante. As Hannu and Cankles clash in midnight showdowns, the hammer and the vacuum collide in a tense, unexpected battle of wits and weaponry.
Will a meticulously rigged household appliance actually hold its own against a hammer of brutal force?
And can Sydney finally break free from Cankles McJeggings’s dark grip once and for all?
In a world where justice supposedly wears heavy boots, sometimes the most unassuming tool can tip the scales. CANKLEHAMMER II asks how far you’re willing to go—and what you’re willing to wield—to stand up for what’s right.
7.5/10, not as good as CANKLEHAMMER I.
