a great follow up just as good as the original WARNING!!!!!!! SPOILERS!!!!!!

[19 August 2004]

a great follow up and just as good as the original it has lots of action a great pace very good effects and lots of creepy images there is also plenty of blood lots of yellow gore too while the first one was intelligent scary and slower paced this one is action packed tense and well paced still i love both just the same. the acting is quite good James LeGross is great here as Mike he is better looking then the original mike and who would have thought the nerdy looking mike would grow up to look like a buff young dude not me. anyway he did a great job Reggie Bannister is very funny and does great in this role once again he is a ladies man! and an awesome b movie actor Angus Scrimm is even more creepier this time around man is he a fast walker! he gave me the creeps! Paula Irvine is cute and does her job well as main female she is quite likable and i was rooting for her the whole time! Samantha Phillips does not have much to do but look hot but boy does she do that well! overall a great sequel that is a required viewing ***1/2 out of 5 cool flashbacks from the original too
