With the maniac still on the loose, the lone survivor of his previous rampage struggles to regain his memory of the incident in order to rescue his kidnapped girlfriend as the rampage continues throughout the community.
Overall, this was a decent if flawed overall effort. One of it's strongest aspects is the creation of a fun low-budget atmosphere that leaves this with some rather creepy moments. Built around the idea of the killer getting to play within the community and getting to continue his rampage, there's some fun to be had with the stalking scenes featuring the killer striking various one-shot characters that stumble upon the killer. The ambush on the promoter out in the alley, the individual attacks on the lesbian couple in their home or the sequence with the surprise appearance at the young family all come together into being rather fun style stalking scenes that usually appear in these kinds of features. With a nice finale that also features a fun encounter at a music concert and the final confrontation in the basement lair of the killer which gives this the type of gore prominent in low-budget indie slasher efforts. These here provide this with enough to hold it up over the few minor flaws. One of the weaker elements to this one is the fact that there's quite a pronounced amount of filler material in a film that really shouldn't require any. Despite the origins of stepping this one up from the previous short, the languid pacing of the first half here really makes this feel longer than it should with scenes of the cops standing around at crime-scenes waiting for others to respond, seeing the entire journey of character's going around town talking to each other or wasting endless amounts of time just following the survivor around as he struggles to regain his composure. The other issue here is the rather clumsy setup for the killers' motivation which is rather shocking and somewhat hamfisted by being thrown into the film so late that it doesn't really have any impact or chance to resonate before it's over. Some might be put off by the low-budget quality of the production, but otherwise, it's not as bad as it could've been.
