Slow pace in the most part of the movie.
Fantastic!
Funny, strange, confrontational and subversive, this is one of the most interesting experiences you'll have at the cinema this year.
This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.
I watched this sequel, because it came with the original SNDN. The sequel picks up when Ricky, Billy's brother is an adult. Ricky is in a mental facility, because of what happened to his brother. A psychologist actually his 13th comes in to interview him, via tape recorder. Ricky tells the psychologist about those events that led his brother over the edge. In this film, actually the first part of the movie about 40 minutes is flashbacks of SNDN. Ricky tells the doctor about his childhood and growing up at St. Mary's to current. He explains the time he was adopted by his parents, growing up and getting a job, and growing up to become just like his brother. Ricky has developed the same condition his brother had. This time the color red, triggers him to kill people. Especially anyone who is a bully, because like his brother he hates bullies. He even kills his girlfriend when he finds out she wasn't a virgin. During the end of the interview, Ricky is able to escape by killing the doctor. He escapes and is on his way to get revenge on the Mother Superior who was in charge at St Mary's.This movie is more comedic than horror, some of the killing scenes are just twisted. An example the impalement with an umbrella. If You are bored and need a good laugh this move provides. I gave it a 5, because it's funny in parts, but the original is the best.
People are saying this movie is horrible, which I can see why, it is a huge step down from the original in every way. Do yourself a favor and skip the first hour of the movie, it is a literal recap of the first movie, I don't mind it when movies decide to make a different pov of an interesting story but this is literally shot for shot footage of the original movie.I basically think the director wanted make a second film, but ran out of time and just put this sloppy mess together.Other than that the main characters overacting is worth to watch it a least once just for a laugh. I MEAN COME ON HE KILLS A GUY WITH AN UMBRELLA, WHAT MORE DO YOU GUYS WANT?
If there is any kind of redemption for this painfully awful movie is, that if you've never seen the original 84 movie, you won't need to as the first half of this movie is nothing but a play by play rehash of everything that happened. Movie starts with a now grown up Ricky, younger brother of Billy from the first movie, who's now incarcerated in an asylum for the criminally insane. A doctor/psychiatrist comes to visit to interview and put Ricky on tape as to his motives and mind-set over what he has done. Ricky relays the story to the doctor and Ricky's recollection of events could only have come from his older brother when they were made wards of the state in an orphanage after their parents murder at the hands of a criminal dressed as Santa Claus. As the story continues all we see is extracts from the first film leading right up to the time Billy was killed by police in front of Ricky and the other kids. Ricky ends up eventually being adopted but seeing his brother killed as a kid has apparently left him unstable and unhinged and he starts murdering random people who either upset him or get in his way leading him to be captured and put in an institution. By the time Ricky has finished his story, the doctor has been killed by way of strangulation with the recording tape and Ricky has escaped. He kills a guy in a Santa suit collecting for charity and he tracks down the mother superior who ran the old orphanage as he blames her for his brother's death. Ricky decapitates the mother superior and is then gunned down by police but an end scene tells us that he's not dead. Now while all that sounds interesting, I can tell you without any hyperbole that this whole venture makes no sense, it's very poorly executed, badly acted and couldn't be more boring if it tried. This whole movie could ONLY work if Ricky were old enough to have ever known what went on with his brother or more specifically what happened to his parents. At the time their parents were killed, Ricky was only a baby, not even talking yet, and even if Billy was able to relay the story to him as he got older, as a kid he wouldn't remember it in such detail. Seeing his brother killed in front of him and having this turn him psycho makes no real sense either. Ricky never displayed any kind of mental illness, so yeah I can see how someone may be scarred but not immediately homicidal. One really stupid thing in this is that prior to his rampage, Ricky and a girlfriend go to a movie, which just so happens to be about a killer Santa Claus and it's all footage from the beginning of the first film in 84. So it's a film within a film and it just so happens to all relate to him and his history. Way to cut back on budget, and only add 30% new footage. There is so much blatant stupidity in this with people doing things that most rational or reasonable people simply wouldn't do, it plays more like a comedy instead of a horror and it's trying hard to be amusing but fails on all counts. The end scenes with Ricky trying to kill an old wheelchair bound woman with an axe are incredibly stupid and I'm still not sure how you can decapitate someone and not leave any traces of blood anywhere. You're not missing anything if you haven't seen this you'll do yourselves a huge favour by sticking to seeing the first movie and leaving it at that.
I dunno that I'd call SILENT NIGHT DEADLY NIGHT 2 an actual movie. Half the runtime's spent on flashback footage from the first movie, leaving maybe 45 minutes of actual sequel stuff. You've gotta admit, that's pretty flippin' lazy. So the reason this rating isn't any higher is because of the long slog through low-grade '80s slasher flick. Although it does tickle me that, since they didn't have enough footage to make the movie's total length, they padded the end credits out to 10 minutes. Oh man . . .But I'll freely admit that the "GARBAGE DAY!" Internet meme is what brought me here, and that's where we get into the really juicy bad stuff.. This is a shoddy movie, but it's Eric Freeman's terrible line deliveries and possessed facial expressions that'll leave you in a fit of giggles. When he goes on the suburban rampage, things don't just shift into higher gear, they go to light speed. I can't give that guy enough credit; his awful performance saves this whole thing. Getting right down to it, there's maybe 20 minutes' worth of movie here, and it's all his scenes. I'd buy this movie just to skip to his parts. Seriously, if Anchor Bay can release a version of this movie with just his scenes (I can see it now, "The Freeman Cut"), you'd have a trim-the-fat, guaranteed to please short movie on your hands.I've seen TROLL 2, and he puts that movie to shame. It is glorious.9 Freemans/10
