HottWwjdIam There is just so much movie here. For some it may be too much. But in the same secretly sarcastic way most telemarketers say the phrase, the title of this one is particularly apt.
KnotStronger This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.
Quiet Muffin This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.
Guillelmina The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.
Aaron1375 I am a bit hesitant to say that this is a sequel that should never have been made. Granted, I do almost feel that way; however, while it was not as good as the first movie overall it does feature a lot of good gore effects. In fact, a lot of the effects in this one top those found in the first one. Still, it is a rather stupid film as well. It just seems to not know if it wants to be a straight horror film, a horror film with light comedic elements or a straight out parody. This sequel does sort of pick up where the last left off and at the same time it does not. Hull House is again at the center of the horror, but Angela from the previous film is basically made the primary demon. In the previous movie she was just one of many, sure she was kind of the face of the film as far as video covers and such, but it was Quigley's character that started the demon infestation in the first film whereas the character of Angela was the first one that wanted to leave. It was a nice touch adding the lipstick from the first one though. Another problem with the film was the film's length. A horror film if it is big budget and serious in tone may warrant more than an hour and a half, but one that gets downright silly should wrap up in an hour and a half. This film was dragging at times as a lot of stuff seemed unnecessary. It is not as if the film needed the extra padding either! The story, years have passed since the party at Hull House and people claim to have seen Angela residing there. In fact, at the beginning a couple looking to spread the word of God find themselves face to face with her. Well we soon shift focus onto one of the most lax Catholic schools ever recorded on film. A dance is coming up, but one of the girls is going to get a party started at Hull House and she is going to get a young girl named Melissa and who everyone calls Mouse there because she is Angela's sister. Things get weird at Hull House so the partiers are soon headed back to the school where the evil follows them. It soon is up to a couple, a guy obsessed with demonology, a hardcore nun and skeptical priest to enter Hull House to rescue Melissa and conquer the darkness and Angela once and for all!So yeah, it does sort of follow the first film, but at the same time does enough different to keep things from seeming like a complete repeat of the first film. Still, I found the strange episodes where the film turned into a parody a bit annoying. Stick with one genre please as the high comedic elements detracted from the instances where people were self sacrificing. Then again, those scenes detracted from the parody stuff if that was what the film truly wanted to be. The only actress who returned from the first film is the one who played Angela and she is already looking a bit too old for the role. She could almost pass for Melissa's cool older mom rather than her sister. I know they made another film, but I have a feeling that the quality would go down further. Not the effects, those were good…just the horror. Probably no traces of pure horror left. Granted the first one had some very light comedic elements, but it was still more horror than anything else. This one has a good bit of nudity too, like the first one, but I give the edge to the first one. The girls in that one were just a bit more attractive, but then I have always been a bit more partial to 80's girls. It was not a good film, but it was watchable. Trim some of the time off and be a bit steadier with what they wanted to do with the comedy and this one would have been more on par with the first film.
jessegehrig Is this the first one or the second one? Oh, I see it now, it's 2, the second one. Human sexuality is where babies come from- penises and vaginae all through history in furious union. Just spreading out that DNA across the world. This movie is about animals called Baldies, which is a species of hairless bipedal ape. These Baldies are driven by hormonal impulses to be cruel and engage in sex. Also there is The Holy Ghost plus demons. See, a Baldy writer put forth the script, so that a Baldy producer working in conjunction with a Baldy film director, assembled a cast of Baldy actors to play out the roles of characters, and that's what movies are. Money is spent cocaine is done people are slept with and regrets are then born to haunt for years afterward.
happyendingrocks Though Night Of The Demons 2 tries desperately to inject enough humor and nudity to make up for its overall tedium and incomprehensibility, this slipshod sequel is nowhere near as fun or clever as the delightfully dreadful Kevin S. Tenney Halloween celebration which spawned it.Amelia Kinkade returns as possessed party gal Angela, but this time the bulk of the action is shifted to a Catholic boarding school populated by a fresh crop of horndog teens who know all about the events in the first Night and eventually decide to throw their own party at Hull House. Of course, their visit sparks another demonic infestation, and thanks to a cameo from Linnea Quigley's lipstick tube, which one of the girls transports back to the boarding school, Angela is provided a fresh ground zero to begin converting members of the fun-loving gang into slobbering, wise-cracking unholy creatures.It takes a really long time for any of this to transpire, and nearly the entire first hour of the film is spent introducing the characters and establishing the incoherent plot. In addition to the general archetypes (jock, tramp, jerky alpha male, etc.), Night 2 incorporates a few less conventional additions to the squad of potential victims, such as a nerdy scholar whose area of fascination conveniently happens to be demonology (naturally, he's very helpful in explaining most of the ins and outs of the story to us), a timid wallflower who's revealed to be Angela's orphaned sister (and has violent dreams about her sinister sibling which provide an excuse to insert some gore into the early slow spots), and a militant karate expert nun who brandishes a yardstick as if it was a katana and swings her rosary around like a pair of nun-chucks (I wasn't intending to make a pun there, but let's run with it... a nun pun run, if you will).The film stumbles often and badly because it doesn't have any real focus, and much of what occurs during the course of the movie is sort of arbitrary and pointless. For instance, the set-up seems to leading toward the trip to Hull House, but once we get there, the totality of the excursion is basically a sex scene, a prank, and the death of exactly one ancillary character (thankfully the most annoying member of the cast bites it first). After all that build up, we end up retreating once again to the Catholic academy with the cursed cosmetic in tow, which would seem to provide an opportunity for Angela to whittle down a slew of people. However, the entirety of her visit to St. Ruth's consists of an homage to her seductive dance from the original Night, a prank, and the death of exactly one ancillary character (although we are also treated to a tasteful scene which features a serpentine phallus-beastie slithering out of the lipstick tube and crawling up between one girl's legs to nest inside of her). A couple of newly possessed minions cause a bit of mayhem in Angela's absence, but our leading lady busies herself by luring away her baby sis to either sacrifice her or convert her to the darkness, depending on which contradicting explanatory scene you choose to believe. Of course, Night's wicked antagonist wants her endgame to unfold on her own turf, so after spending two-thirds of the movie trying to figure out what the point of all of this is, we end up going BACK to Hull House, where more people die and Angela turns into a snake for no apparent reason.The special effects are nowhere near as impressive as what Steve Johnson cooked up for Night 2's predecessor, but Angela's gooey come-uppance is a suitably gnarly set-piece. Elsewhere, gags like a demon playing basketball with his own head fall resoundingly flat, and while this FX crew was able to make Angela look almost the same as she did at her previous party, if you look closely you'll notice that the two most effective shots of her in all her demonic glory are actually recycled outtakes from the first film. This installment saves most of its gore for the climax and relies instead on diversionary nudity to maintain its momentum (the presence of the gorgeous Cristi Harris certainly helps in this regard), but the extended conclusion packs in enough splatter to provide a decent pay-off for the slow road getting there.However, some of the elements at play here are so utterly stupid that they defy all reason (I'm still trying to figure out why killing a demon causes a cockroach to crawl out of its head). The most readily notable example of the concussed mindset at work here, aside from the incongruities of the plot, involves our previously mentioned kung-fu nun, who gets her head chopped up during the finale... and then promptly sprouts a new one (she explains to Angela that this is possible because of her "faith," which apparently renders her immune to decapitation).I know we're not supposed to demand too much from a micro-budget horror sequel of this caliber, but considering how effectively Kevin S. Tenney translated these same elements into a tremendously enjoyable outing, it's hard not to be disappointed by the meager results in this case. Night Of The Demons 2 isn't a complete waste of time, but only the most forgiving genre fans will glean much amusement here. I'm not saying you absolutely shouldn't see this, but I would definitely advise those who had a blast at Angela's first party to drastically lower their expectations before they send in their RSVP for this one.
Boba_Fett1138 Foremost reason why I like this movie better than the first one is becomes it got done way more professionally. Not sure if this movie necessarily had a bigger budget to spend this time but simple fact is that it's all better looking and way better put together all. The movie flows better and it's even a more fun one to watch as well.This movie series pretty much comes from the time that it was popular to make horror movies with lots of comedy in it. Most of them are pretty bad, especially in todays light but often they are still fun to watch. Same is the case with this movie series, that is perhaps not horrible but is nothing that stands out either.Luckily the movie is not a rehash of the first one though. At first it really seemed that the movie was going to be just like the first movie, that got made 6 years earlier, by picking a similar type of plot and with the same settings and the same sort of characters. But about halfway through it picks a different approach and it has an actual plot that it follows, while the first movie was just being about a bunch of kids who got stuck in hell house and awoke its evil demons. This time there is more a purpose to it all, so to speak.Still it's a movie that feels connected with the first one, even though it got made by different persons, with mostly different actors and it got released 6 years later. Perhaps this is also thanks to the fact that both movies got written by the same guy; Joe Augustyn, who really hasn't done much more in his career.It's obviously a movie that works out better as an amusing one and comedy than an horror and scary one. The movie still uses some great looking make-up effects and have some other surprisingly good looking horror effects in it as well.A decent and fun enough movie, that is better than the first one anyway.6/10http://bobafett1138.blogspot.com/
