About

You’ll likely enjoy this if you want an imaginative, darker fantasy-leaning horror sequel with lots of gruesome moments and bigger scope than the first; Not for you if you dislike heavy gore or muddled plotting like some found in Halloween II.

Pros: wildly imaginative horror; striking hellish visuals; strong returning cast | Cons: messy, confusing story; extremely graphic gore; uneven effects at times
