Teringer An Exercise In Nonsense

RipDelight This is a tender, generous movie that likes its characters and presents them as real people, full of flaws and strengths.

ActuallyGlimmer The best films of this genre always show a path and provide a takeaway for being a better person.

Sameer Callahan It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.

Michael Ledo This is another anthology with the shortest segment running about 4 minutes. The first two segments (second one was my favorite) deal with Halloween while the rest do not. I found 2-3 segments enjoyable and the rest was meh. Perhaps the most amazing aspect of the film was the woman had a working VCR attached to her TV set and not in a closet.I have never seen a pumpkin carved that easy, quickly, and precise with a large knife.Guide" F-bomb. No sex or nudity

Chris K For sure, it could be said this entry lacks that which made the first something more special. Is it using old shorts from YouTube? Maybe. Is it the lack of a proper foreground story? Probably.But nonetheless, it's a fine combination of horror shorts - obviously some lesser than others but that's a very subjective opinion. None of the shorts are overly gory and the ones which stand out stand out VERY well and it's quite clear why they should be featured in this movie. The cinematography and acting is surprisingly solid throughout all shorts and the effects aren't too shabby either.All in all, it's not a terrible waste of an hour and thirty minutes of your life - but I wouldn't plan a movie night around it.

dcarsonhagy I watched the first installment of this series a couple of years ago. It was not that bad. In fact, it was kinda' creepy because the antagonist was a clown...and I HATE clowns.Part 2 did not change from its predecessor. A woman finds a VHS Tape (of all things) on her doorstep, after she has noticed some goon standing outside her apartment holding a knife in one hand and wearing a REAL BAD pumpkin mask. She (of course) plops it into her tape machine and is treated to some short stories--most of them bad. However, as in the first installment, it seems Pumpkin Man is trying to come through her television. Anyone who saw the original could tell it was cheaply made, BUT at least it tried to entertain. Part 2 was completely unoriginal, non- scary, and just an overall mess. If the people involved with this want to have another installment, I suggest they actually sit down and try to write a better script AND leave a "CD" on the doorstep. I don't know of anyone who still has a VHS player.Rated R for violence.

equazcion A collection of eight independently-produced Halloween-themed short films, with an overarching plot that these were left as a VHS tape on a young female horror fan's doorstep by a masked, knife-wielding stranger.Most of the stories are extremely short, in the 5-10 minute range, the longest being about 17 minutes. They often have little plot, rather being merely campfire-style, mysterious horrific occurrences with no real beginning, climax, or resolution.They are all, nevertheless, rather original, well-produced, and effectively gripping. The acting and effects are all quite satisfying and convincing. A couple even push the grim envelope, even by today's standards. One story takes the unusual route of being entirely in Spanish (with subtitles), whose inclusion in a primarily English-language movie was, I felt, an admirable risk.The only true weak point for me was the very end, where the framing plot was wrapped up a little too simply.Each short story, along with the framing plot, were independently produced by different writers, directors, and crews, and each one's credits are shown in sequence at the movie's end.
