I haven't seen Hayride 1, but it looks like this one is supposed to follow right after the events of that movie. We do get some flashbacks of the killer being killed or injured and also being identified as some old guy.
Now he's transported in an ambulance with the cops following behind. The EMT is working on him, but surprise...surprise, he wakes up, kills the EMT, kills the driver and the ambulance flips over. The cops behind crash into a tree.
Then somehow Pitchfork makes it to the hospital where the survivors from part 1 are, and there's a bunch of them for some reason--two brothers and the pregnant girl of one of them. At the hospital Pitchfork starts killing random employees and eventually goes after the survivors. He kidnaps the girl and takes her to his lair. The cops and the brothers go after him for the resolution.
Hayride 2 is a C-horror movie that looks like a B-movie. It does look good and they make lots of use of coloring tricks. The villain is one big scary dude. It's filmed mostly during that day, but unfortunately even crews with little budget insist on filming the climax at night. And filming at night without a budget results in a dark ugly mess. It is after all a C-level movie, with an unfinished script with plenty of nonsensical elements. Violence and gore are kept to a minimum. Nudity amounts to a girl's back. There's an awful lot of talking going on accompanied with ridiculous melodramatic piano music. The person in charge of music really botched it. But then again, some of this endless babbling on should have been edited out to begin with. This movie is a decent wanna-be slasher, just be ready to fast forward quite a bit.
