Halloween II (2009)
An improvement over the last one for sure, but still nothing overly special. I really liked the more surreal aspects - the scenes with Sheri Moon Zombie as Micheal's mother were easily the best moments of the film - but otherwise it's just your typical slasher. It's ultra-violent like you'd expect from Zombie, but unlike the violence in something like Devil's Rejects, this just seems pointless most of the time. None of the kills have any tension or inventiveness...it's just a big motherfucker crashing through walls and stabbing people a shitload of times. Sure, it's brutal and gory, but it gets old pretty quick. Not to mention Zombie's awful dialogue...
Still, it has some decent moments here and there. Nothing I'd recommend, but if you liked the first one you'll like this too.
