Anton Bitel Projected Figures ...as Nekromantik 2 follows Monika's obsessive pursuit of her love for a corpse, it also catches us viewers out in our own perverse one-way relationship with cinema: a compulsive fetish for mummified movie remains. Jan 16, 2018 Full Review Cole Smithey ColeSmithey.com From a filmmaking standpoint Jrg Buttgereit's potent stab at transgressive cinema is more in line with the early films of John Waters or David Cronenberg than with the litany of directors associated with torture porn movies of the "Saw" franchise ilk.

g j While not quite as compelling as the first Nekromantik, N2 is still viscerally disturbing and eerily beautiful in a terrible and twisted kind of way. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/19/24 Full Review Audience Member Hermoso pero no supera a la primera Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/01/23 Full Review Tony S Padded to the absolute extreme. The first entry was short and to the point. Sequel stretches thin plot line to the absurdity, even if it's intentional, like a scene in a theater, which was a clear parody, it does not make it less infuriating. Great decapitation scene, nonetheless. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 07/30/21 Full Review Audience Member Grotesque, cult German "erotic" horror sequel, this time with art house leanings - the non-horrific scenes are quite something and consistently amusing. Buttgereit's sexual-horror is possibly even more vile than part one and builds to a disturbing climax. And that final scene.. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/05/23 Full Review Audience Member With less dialogue but with bigger budget than the first film this sequel is by far better. Its more twisted and the ending is unforgettable and shocking. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/16/23 Full Review Audience Member Jörg Buttgereit has created a sequel to his schlock fest Nekromantik. With this one, he explores the same tasteless ideas that have made the first one such a controversial film. Pushing the boundaries of good taste yet again, Buttgereit recycles idea from his first shameful movie and tries to create something new. The only problem is, is that this is still a dreadful piece of reprehensible trash that never should have existed in the first place. The sequel is nothing new, and doesn't add anything more to the "story" of the first. This is still the same thing, and pushes the envelope just for the sake of disturbing the audience. If you've seen the first one, then you've seen this one. This film isn't worth your time, and it a poor attempt at Exploitation cinema. This was awful the first time around, why would it be good the second time around? Exploitation films tend to go in bad taste department with extremely low budgets, controversial plotlines, excessive gore and violence, but this one goes beyond that. There is not a single redeeming factor about this film; it is disgusting, vile and repulsive. If you're looking for effective shock, look elsewhere. You won't find anything of value here. This is a sloppily crafted film that just reeks of bad taste. There is nothing new here, just the same old crap we've seen before, and with that said, and it is definitely not worth your time. This depravity at its lowest and I can't believe that people consider this a good film. This is an exercise in shock pure and simple and the director simply wanted to push the envelope and he did that, but in doing that he didn't create anything that has any entertainment value. The film was horrible and it is one of the most disturbing and sickening films that I have seen. Avoid like the first film, and if critics think that mainstream Slasher films are in poor taste I wonder what they would think of this one and its predecessor.
