Wow! What a bizarre film! Unfortunately the few funny moments there were were quite overshadowed by it's completely weird and random vibe throughout.

It is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties.

This second film is nowhere near as good as the original film - not even close. The only real reasons to watch this film is Christopher Lee (he's always great) and just to say I've seen that werewolf film - that's it.This should have been a fantastic follow up film to the original where her brother investigates her death but instead turned out to be another 1980s horror cheese fest. This whole script should have been scraped and rewritten into a great 2nd movie. I like Sybil Danning and LOVE Christopher Lee - but this film is just bad.I do find the movie an eye-roller at the stupid campiness and crappiness of it all. Kinda fun in a way but not a film to watch over and over again.4/10

I don't know if the IMDb site administrators will count this a s a spoiler but I will list it just in case Howling 2 was a film about a man who's sister was Karen White who was played by Dee Wallace in the first movie. He is told about her being a werewolf and goes and helps a man wipe the rest of the werewolf species out across America and Europe.This was another bad film in the Howling series just like the first before it, I don't know how they persuaded Christopher Lee to be in this movie as you usually expect better things what he stars in a film. I was not to keen on the plot and the body in the coffin at Karen's funeral right at the beginning didn't even look like her one bit.**/***** Poor

Appallingly stupid, poorly conceived sequel stars Christopher Lee(quite a comedown from his Hammer Films stardom!) as a mysterious hunter of werewolves, who persuades the brother of Karen White(Dee Wallace from Part I, absent here.) to accompany him to Transylvania(of course!) where he must destroy a powerful female werewolf and her clan, before they take over the world(or some such thing). Havoc ensues.Joe Dante did not return to direct this mess(never asked, apparently!) which was good news for him, since this is a true embarrassment for all concerned, though if you're a Sybil Danning fan, the bizarre ending credit sequence will no doubt be the highlight(it was!)

This dull and toothless example of how far sequels can stray from the greatness of their predecessor is so utterly stupid and incomprehensible that it doesn't even deserve its reference to Joe Dante's masterful gem in the title. The ludicrously lame sub-moniker should give you an idea of the level of intelligence you'll be dealing with if you decide to slog your way through this wretched mess, since the same minds who created this film also thought "Your Sister Is A Werewolf" was a good movie title. Amazingly enough, this isn't the worst name they came up with; their original idea was "Stirba- Werewolf Bitch." Kind of sort of picking up where things left off, the action here begins at the funeral of Karen White (you won't recognize her because she's played by a stand-in; Dee Wallace wisely opted not to sully her good name by appearing in this), where we learn that she's not actually dead. Your Sister attempts to assert its originality by revising the guidelines of the lycanthropy mythology, and we're informed here that since the silver bullets were taken out of Karen's body during her autopsy, her werewolf super powers kicked in again and brought her back to life (conveniently, this doesn't happen until her coffin lid is closed after the memorial service, so there seems to be a few days of lag time on this go-go-resurrection). So, if we really think about this logically, that would mean that not only does every werewolf whose human body undergoes postmortem examination come back to life, but those who somehow get put into the ground without an autopsy or embalming taking place will have their skeletons rise from their graves after decomposition naturally removes the silver artifact that killed them from their flesh.But, wait... That's not the most fascinating addition the concussed film-makers cooked up for this feast of foolishness. You see, according to Howling II, the REAL way to kill a werewolf is to, of course, drive a stake through its heart (?!), and this is the method of dispatch which defeats several of the creatures we meet in this film. It gets better. The monstress queen's lair, where our heroes must travel to in order to rid the world of the lycan curse once and for all, is located in the place everyone immediately associates with werewolves: Transylvania (??!!). Once the team of would-be werewolf slayers arrives and our female protagonist makes sure to point out that she brought cloves of garlic with her to protect them from the creatures, we have no choice but to wonder if director Philippe Mora even knew what movie he was making a sequel to.Oh, and by the way, werewolves apparently also have the ability to suck the souls out of human victims to rejuvenate themselves. And shoot lazers out of their fingers that make people's eyes burst out of their heads. And, yes, I'm completely serious.The creature FX range from serviceable to atrocious, and most of the monsters we see spend the film in a perpetual state of half-transformation, which is represented by clunky prosthetics that make them look more like puffy-faced apes than lupine shape-shifters; this impression is strengthened by the appearance of several of the fully formed beasts, whose bulbous, over-sized dimensions make it readily apparent that they're running around in modified gorilla costumes. This outing ramps up the gore and eroticism to make up for its sheer baffling inanity, so there is a lot more splatter and nudity on hand here than in the original Howling. If that sounds like an endorsement, go ahead and run with that, because it's the only thing close to one you'll find in this write-up.The inclusion of the great Christopher Lee should be a point of interest, but his scenes are actually heart-breaking to watch. Ever the gentleman, Lee demonstrates grace and professionalism throughout this farce, but it's patently obvious by his demeanor and general lack of enthusiasm how mortified he is to be tackling such insipid material.Miami Vice was the hottest show in the world when this was made, and, oddly, Howling II directly models entire sequences after that '80s staple. Any scene which features a car driving at night is shot and edited in a blatantly similar style, and the pulsing synth-rock soundtrack blaring in the foreground cements this homage. Unfortunately, the producers only sprang for one band to appear on the soundtrack and apparently only paid them for three songs; one of them is actually about werewolves, and you will have the dubious pleasure of hearing it over and over and over and over and over and over again throughout the film.If you find yourself wondering why Sybil Danning was afforded such prominent placement in this movie despite the fact that, as evidenced by her performance, she has trouble even forming a four-word sentence like "Go get the girl," you'll get two reasons during her "check THESE out" scene, in which she tears her top off and exposes her breasts. The vital importance the film-makers place on this epochal shot is emphasized during the closing credits, where Danning's reveal is repeated precisely 17 more times (I counted).The two stars in my score are solely for Christopher Lee's presence and the film's ample allotment of diversionary bloodshed (okay, we'll throw Danning's boobs in there too). Everything else in Howling II from the stilted introduction to the hokey climax is simply abominable. I love bad movies as much as anyone, but this is just plain unbearable.
