GamerTab That was an excellent one.
Micransix Crappy film
Cleveronix A different way of telling a story
Curapedi I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.
Jambojohnnyboy This review is fairly straight forward, have you seen Hatchet? Well this is more of the same, it extends the story, it takes similar story lines from other movies and fits it in to the story arc it is creating.The big difference with this is that it is highly amusing, unlike for example 'Evil Dead'.You could run a book with friends guessing who is going to get bumped off next. There is one spectacular dispatch, which I didn't expect but was a homage to another horror series. I enjoyed this and look forward to part 3.
Scott LeBrun Adam Green delivers more of the same with his deliriously sadistic sequel to his "throwback" horror hit of 2007. Dedicated followers of the horror genre will take delight in some of the casting and in the admittedly hilarious over the top gore gags, but in truth there's not that much going on here. The movie is fun, but quite forgettable. The humour is hit and miss; sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. Green doesn't do too much establishing of the environment here, instead focusing on pace, action, and making the audience howl and clap in appreciation.He brings back his character Marybeth (iconic horror hottie Danielle Harris inherits the role from Tamara Feldman) who's survived the rampage of Victor Crowley (Kane Hodder) and made it back to civilization, where she confronts slimy businessman Reverend Zombie (Tony Todd) about what she's learned is a connection between her and old Vic. She then ventures back into the swamp to try to put an end to Vics' days, and Zombie agrees to go along (albeit for his own reasons), in the company of a group of heavily armed, but not too bright, hunters who were bought off pretty cheap. Also tagging along is Marybeths' concerned uncle Bob (Tom Holland, the director of "Fright Night" and "Child's Play", in a good-sized acting role).The mindless violence in this movie *is* quite entertaining, although the viewer will have to sit through a fair amount of set-up and introduction to some less than completely interesting characters. Filling out the cast with familiar faces from the genre is not exactly a fresh gimmick, but horror fans may be still attracted to seeing them all here. Harris is appealing, as always, Todd gets a lot to do this time (he was wasted in a cameo role the first time around) and is a total hoot, and Holland is rather good (buffs will know that he began his career as an actor). Also appearing are Parry Shen (returning from the first movie, but playing a different role), R.A. Mihailoff, and AJ Bowen, with director John Carl Buechler reprising his part as area local Jack Cracker.If you enjoyed "Hatchet" no. 1, chances are you'll have a fairly good time with part 2. At least it's not pretending to be more than it is, a goofy horror comedy that delivers blood by the bucketful.Seven out of 10.
megoobee This is pretty much the premise of Hatchet II, a bunch of stupid people get slaughtered in amusing ways. The kills were both gory and creative, more than enough to satisfy the most hardcore gore aficionados.What let the movie down was the lack of a good story...actually...it lacked any story. Movie summary in one sentence - Assemble a group of people and herd them down to the swamp to get killed. End of movie.The female protagonist was too stupid to think she would not get killed. Apparently surviving a previous encounter with Victor was not enough, she needed to face him again and let him have another go at her. No sane person with half a brain cell would go back out to relive their previous horrors. Of course, her stupidity reigned supreme and she survived another encounter with the killer.I will say that this sequel is better than the first one. Not by much but better.
Joe Miller Hatchet is one of my favorite movies and I absolutely loved the second one just as much as the first. This movie starts off exactly where the first one ended and they put it together perfectly. Tamara Feldman has been replaced with the amazing and beautiful Danielle Harris! She is such a great horror actress and although she wasn't in the first Hatchet she still plays the part excellently. Hatchet 2 has almost triple the kills and over 130 gallons of stage blood to make this one extra juicy! This movie shows the life before and after Victor Crowley was born and you find out a lot about him that you didn't know before which is a great thing in my honest opinion. The kill scenes are still creative and fun to watch over and over. I absolutely love Adam Greene for making Hatchet and I cannot wait to see how Hatchet 3 turns out and fits into the story. I give Hatchet 2 a 9 out of 10.~Joe
