Damien: Omen II. 06/10
More than decent sequel to the original classic masterpiece. It stayed faithful to the book as much as possible, although William Holden tried his best to emulate Gregory Peck but failed. The raven sequences were great to watch though, and the movie had its surreal moments. Yet nowhere as good as the original. Nicely directed and pacy thoughout.
An American Werewolf in Paris. 06/10
Talking about sequels, this one was behind in all departments where the original had excelled. The acting, direction, pace, effects and sound all were paler in comparison, although the movie does hold off on its own and has some excellent moments of atmospheric bizarreness. Anyone who wants to see this, watch it with a more open mind, and you will enjoy it.
