Video Violence 2 (1988 Video)
3/10
Not as much of a camp classic as the first one was
13 April 2007
The main murdering duo of the first film, Howard and Eli, now seem to have a pirate public access show filmed from a hidden location which is just the device they need to showcase bloody kills, without having to deal with the pesky little thing called plot (yea the first one's was stenuas at best, but it DID have one). Still that's not really a detriment of a movie like this & with a running time shorter then the first by almost half an hour (more if you subtract the time this one spends on clips from the first), it's not hard to sit through. And this film is a mild improvement to the first in regards to the acting as well as the special effects. However it just doesn't all jibe as well as the original. A movie full of black humor that I enjoyed a lot more. This one is still worth a view though, i guess.

My Grade: D+

DVD Extras: Audio commentary by Director/ writer Gary Cohen, Special effects men Mark Dolsom & Mark Kwiatek, and actors Art Neill, Paul Kay, David Christopher, & Uke; 15 minute interview with Cohen; and Trailers for Video Violence 1, Video Violence 2, Cannibal Campout, Woodchipper Massacre, & Ghoul School (the DVD also comes with the first video Volence film on the same disc)
