Slow, unappreciated follow up to a compelling He Never Died.

A very uninspired and lacklustre film that falls flat as a sequel to a great one. The dull and woodenly acted protagonist doesn't really work as a follow-up to Henry Rollins. The plot is fairly nonsensical and the characters are mostly poorly acted cardboard cutouts. Attempts at jokes don't land. I did quite enjoy Michelle Nolden's character and acting here though.

About 10 minutes in, I thought 'Hey, they are ripping off a movie with Henry Rollins', and lo and behold this is the sequel. In some ways, this film is probably superior. The supporting cast is stronger, it looks like it has a bigger budget. But I think they missed what made the first movie good. It WASN'T a good movie - but Henry Rollins carried the film with his 'dont give a crap' weariness. And in a way who how is actually played in to that. The lead here just doesn't pull that off. She seems to have a barely repressed anger at the world that only in the last 10 minutes of the movie does she relent (in the hug scene she shows more emotion than the rest of the movie). No idea why, since she has had eons to get a hug or realize not all humans are evil.

It literally starts off with painful exposition. The characters would be better represented as cartoons. The hamfisted (irrelevent, nothing vested by anyone) plotline and terrible performances left me thinking "at least I'm not paying a dime to watch this". The gangsters are whiney clowns, who can't even curse believably. I had to give it a chance, the original was something special. this is a cheap fake, the tone is silly, not cool. The dialogue in the first is smart, and layered in meaning. This dialogue in this sequel has no patterns behind it. the cop gives explicit permission to eat someone... its just, whimsical... how'd they get a budget?

Very weak sequel to a good movie. The acting is poor, the script and story are lacking, the characterizations are cartoonish and the relationships between the characters are inexplicable. People meet and are the best of friends with deep understandings of each other within a couple sentences of dialogue exchanged between them. Convenient for the "plot," but totally phony on the screen. Instead of just tying someone up, which would suffice in the story quite well, an entire enormous set piece is constructed with hundreds of feet of chrome chains and a huge superstructure that would have taken a week to build. You keep asking over and over, why???, and how??? You can see what the movie was going for with the horror/comedy, but it failed on almost all levels. Too bad, the first film showed great promise.

Pretty awful. Especially compared to the original. He Never Died painted an interesting slow burn of a suspenseful film with an interesting character. This movie just seems like a shallow cash grab trying to capitalize on everything that made the first good, while excluding/ignoring/removing all of the parts of the first one that actually made it good in the first place.

To put it plainly, after watching even a few minutes of She Never Died, it's clear that any of us would be lucky to watch Oluniké Adeliyi read the phone book, her weekly grocery list or nod even a friendly hello.

Rated: 3/4

Thrillist

semi-sequel to the low-key festival favorite He Never Died covers some of the same ground, but brings a fresh tone and a welcome sense of dark humor to the grim proceedings

The action is well-shot and balances a level of blood, gore, and teeth-rattling hits you want to see when a fallible, but immortal hero is plowing through brick wall villains.

Rated: 7.5/10

Ready Steady Cut

The "sister sequel" to He Never Died (2015), Audrey Cummings' She Never Died is a violent yet nicely laidback horror-thriller that ends with a smile.

Rated: 3.5/5

Distinguishes itself as a good and gory character study, with a style and feel all its own.

She Never Died is brimming with female power. Cummings creates an environment where her cast makes the characters shine in this dangerous world.
