Even though I'm a horror fan, Netflix's horror movies are usually not the best movies on the streaming service. Like the first Nobody Sleeps in the Woods Tonight, they are usually average or slightly above average. Unfortunately, this film failed to even meet those expectations. The film starts off poorly, with a scene that doesn't have much to do with anything. The viewer then meets the main characters, who are both unlikeable and unrealistic choices for police officers. Apparently, there are only three police officers in this town and they are an old and out of shape man, a young man with less courage than the Wizard of Oz lion, and a girl who looks like she should be in her freshman year of college. Other than the survivor from the first film, the only other characters we meet are an animal abuser, two annoying camp directors, and two neo-nazis. Overall, one of the most unlikeable casts possible. The plot appears to be written by a child, because it is equally as bad as the characters. Instead of scares and suspense, the movie chooses to make one failed joke after another. And as bad as the first half of movie is, the second half is significantly worse. The scenes that include dialogue between monsters are some of the worst scenes ever produced by Netflix. The only good thing I can say about this film is that some of the murders are pretty unique. I should have turned this film off in the first twenty minutes, but decided to keep watching since the first film was worth a view. Netflix is currently considering a third film in this series. I would strongly recommend that they scrap those plans and put those resources into a new series that could have more potential. 2/10
