      Audience Member This USA network sequel to the cult classic original is a a collection of remake stories aside from one concerning giant rats in a graveyard. Another is a straight up sequel slash remake of the original zuni fetish doll story taking place this time at a museum and the final story is a remake of the best bit from dead of night concerning a mother trying to ressurect her dead son. Lynette Anthony is the lead in all the stories and is good but lacks the impact of the incomparable Karen Black. It's a fun little anthology that's perfectly creepy and entertaining if just a touch forgettable. 7/10 Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/22/23 Full Review Audience Member Simply better than the 1st one. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/10/23 Full Review Audience Member Wow. This movie was incredibly stupid and irritatingly bad. I mean going into this, I wasn't expecting anything great, especially when experiencing the film years and years after its release, but after hearing about how good the first one was, I was hoping to get scared at least once. Nope. Sadly, the movie got worse and worse and the ending makes you want to punch your TV screen. I wonder what goes through the mind of the people in this situation, especially the scientist. So many dumb decisions made by her, its just flat out irritating! Then the boyfriend... just wow. This movie gets only one star because I watched it with my family and we laughed at sections, but very few. This movie is just bad, I mean if you watch it with like friends then you might get a kick outta it, and maybe those who grew up with it, but everyone else, just stay away. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/03/23 Full Review Audience Member A decent sequel to the original terror trilogy, however it wasn't as good. The rats story was great, but Bobby was just annoying and the less said about the zuni doll the better. The acting was good in all stories, and the characters were interesting, but it didn't feel as connected that the first one had. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Audience Member this better than the first one but that's not saying much Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Audience Member Can't even come close to matching the effectiveness of the original (and even that film wasn't all that great, really), but the killer Zuni fetish doll proves to be the unequivocal highlight, as he was in the first. Beyond that, this is highly skippable, except for perhaps the most ardent fans of the previous movie. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/15/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating
