Watch The Prophecy II For Free

To me, this movie is perfection.

I really wanted to like this movie. I feel terribly cynical trashing it, and that's why I'm giving it a middling 5. Actually, I'm giving it a 5 because there were some superb performances.

It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

A-Z Horror Movie of the Day..."The Prophecy 2" (R - 1998 - US)Sub-Genre: Monster/Biblical My Score: 5.9Cast=7 Acting=7 Plot=6 Ending=7 Story=6 Scare=4 Jump=3 F/X=6 Monster=8 Bible=5Gabriel returns to try to destroy the human race he despises so much, with the help of a suicidal teen and the opposition of the angel Danyael. "How many more worlds have to burn before you're satisfied, Gabriel?" Just the one, apparently as Christopher Walken is the only one that returns for this sequel that went straight to video. RIP Brittany Murphy...she shines in her role. Unfortunately, this one is not written very well...it also seemed like Walken got half the budget as the F/X are not as good. I still liked this more than the score would let out, so I think this is worth a watch.

For a direct-to-video film, it does boast a better cast of respectable actors and genre regulars than you usually see (Christopher Walken, Russell Wong, Jennifer Beals, Brad Dourif, Brittany Murphy, Eric Roberts, Glenn Danzig, Steve Hytner, Bruce Abbott, Tom Towles, and Steve Hytner) and the film is at times more visually arresting than you typically get in most direct-to-video cash-grab sequels. However, this sequel to "The Prophecy" forgot to be scary, suspenseful, or exciting, which I'll attribute to the absence of the original film's writer/director Gregory Widen, who only has a token executive producer credit on this film. Walker returns as the bad seed angel Gabriel, who again wants to destroy the human race, but who's confronted by a good angel, Wong, who wants to stop him. Although there are some interesting sequences here and there, the story pretty quickly devolves into familiar chases and races-against- time. The original film isn't really that much better in that respect, but it did have a lot more interesting of ideas and characters behind the action, which is the formula you need for a good action or horror film. "The Prophecy II" was disappointing, but I'm not sure I was really expecting a great film film, despite the cast, so maybe it met my middling expectations.

while i didn't think this movie was quite as good as the first it was still pretty good.Christopher Walken returns and once again steals the show.his character has some great lines,and provides some laughs as well.Brittany Murphy is good here as well.Jennifer Beals was adequate,although i didn't find her performance outstanding.the movie itself was pretty decent,although it loses momentum a few times and i felt it lagged a bit in spots.and i though the ending was actually very good,though.not something you would normally expect from this type of movie.or at least i wouldn't think so.overall,despite some weak points,-having Christopher Walken,some humorous touches,and good ending elevate this sequel.for me,The Prophecy II is a 7/10

Gabriel (Walken) is back, and he's got his pals with him. This part is the darkest of the three and has more angels in it than you can shake a stick at. There's a lot of nifty fights, heart ripping and cool looking customers - though I found the 'ethereal' look of the angels under par for the series.In 'The Prophecy' Stoltz, Walken and Mortensen had something unearthly about them that made you almost believe they could be supernatural beings. This time most of the angels look like thugs or -in the case of Danyael- like a Haynes underwear model. I found Roberts to be a particularly bad choice for Michael...oh well.The music is great. They kept the score from the original which was a good idea. The choir music gives the characters that 'divine' aura and serenity, while the driving beat underneath lets you know that things are happening - fast. There is also more humor in this one than in the last.Not a movie I'd recommend seeing as a stand alone, but as part of the series. Enjoy.The only problem I had was at the beginning. It is never really explained why Gabriel comes back (and how he manages it), but without Walken this movie wouldn't work.7/10
