Hatchet II



SPOILER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Director Adam Greene does it again. Hatchet II does not disappoint. Starts off where Hatchet I leaves off and follows the storyline well. For this film not to have been released but a couple days in the US is horse shit. This is what we want! blood and guts literally. Yes one part of the film does include a man's intestines being pulled from him and strangled until his head pops off. This film had great special effects! That is in thanks to Keven Carter, Alex Hill, Robert Pendergraft, Visual Effect by Micah Gallo and Scott Purdy, and Makeup by Adrienne Lynn, Arlene Martinez, Robert Pendergraft, Lancel Reyes, Adrian Romo, Shyann Swisher, Rileah Vanderbilt. Ya'll know I am makeup and Special effects so I have to shout out to them. Awesome job all.
Mary Beth (Danielle Harris) is pissed that her family has been slaughtered and and wants revenge. She gets it.
She seeks assistance from Reverend Zombie,  Candy Man star  Tony Todd and a band of Louisiana outcasts. They go back to the site of the original and find all new ways for Victor Crowley (Kane Hodder) to slaughter everyone. Hatchet II has more unique kills. My favs were the pussy hatchet, probably the only way Victor can get laid, the, my what big chainsaw you have kill, the bootleg kill- head cheese anyone, and Mary Beth's revenge. You will know what I mean when you see the film.
Victor reminds me of Toxie on steroids and a bit more evil hahahaha. Speaking of Toxie, Lloyd Kaufman makes a cameo in this film. I did not know he was in it but recognized him when I saw him.
I would recommend this film to every horror fanatic out there. This is one film that will become a classic. Best part is that you don't have to see the first to understand the second film.

  1. Great review! Sounds like there is a lot of blood and guts, which I always enjoy. I completely forgot to look for this movie in stores. I'm glad you reminded me by doing this review. I am one of the few that wasn't blown away by part 1, so I hope this one is better.
