Stepfather 2

I haven't seen the original Stepfather, since it is a rare find in my town (as is the sequel). As is this sequel. So, I was shocked as hell to see it for $5.00 down at my local and loyal (the employees, that is) BlockBuster. I snatched my copy of it and took it home with me and popped it in the ol' VHS player. And I have to say, I was impressed.
Now, this was by far not the best thing I've ever seen, nor does it even rank in must-watch for rare commodities. But, it is worth the time if you happen to stumble upon it.
If you're like me, and haven't seen the original, no need to worry. The sequel clears that up with the ending from the original in the beginning of this movie. Then, he escapes the loony bin and then forms into Gene, a family counselor. Shortly, he wins the heart of both Carol and her teenage son, and before you know it, are set to wed. Meanwhile, Gene displaces some annoying fucks (including Carol's ex-husband) and gets set for the big day- OF LOVE AND DEATH!!!
The movie had it's ups, such as the directing, acting, inventivity, and even nice scenery. But, you can't forget about the uninvited downers, which include off-screen deaths, some stupid deaths (such as a security guard getting killed by a knightstick and a random man on the road dying, I think, after getting a car trunk gets slammed on his hands), some annoying characters (which were displaced of), and a horrible climatic ending (which started out good) Overall, Stepfather 2 is worth a look, but don't go in for gore and death, and don't overhype yourself.

3 and a half stars out of 5.

Thanks Jacket for the review on Stepfather II, ive had it in my collection for a few months now but never gave it a chance. Now that I know you liked it, im sure it will be in my VHS player pretty soon.

as for my last seen movie....

The Toxic Avenger

Where do I start? I wasnt expecting a whole lot going into this movie. Mainly because its an independent movie, i never go in expecting to much. But I was slammed in the face from the very begining. This movie is really and truly non-stop fun. And no doubt one of the best independent movies I have ever seen. I loved the whole storyline to this movie. I also loved the music, the gore, and the girls. This movie was awesome! I got the "Tox Box" Which includes "The Toxic Avenger I, II, III, and the animated "Toxic Crusaders" movie. So I will put my reviews on those up when I get to watching them.

4.5 out of 5

Domino ...

the hyper kinetic style drives me a bit nuts but it was a cool story and everyone was gold in it ...

especially Mickey Rourke - of course ..

Zombie Holocaust
&
Irreversible

BTW, pick up the current issue of Giant for a pretty good Rourke interview, goes through a few of his movies and it's really well done.

I liked this one but one thing bugged me, I know Zombie borrows liberally from other horror films and that's cool I like that. Unfortuanatly I don't like ripping off scenes and that whole "slap her" scene was straight out of Last House. Anyway, I wish the body count was higher but when that woman's running around with her husband's face on... that's cool.

Yeah...THAT was the "one halfway decent kill scene"...About 15 feet of roadkill
