All Hallows Eve 2 is strange bag of items mixed into one movie, which for me kind of falls short of what it could be.The main elephant in the room here is yes the clown is missing in this one, and sadly there is no big act at the end of the movie. It's also missing a slasher feel to this film.That's the problem with the film, the clown is foreshadowed and foreshadowed in the original and then it leads to the main act at the end. With this sequel it just a bunch of short stories and then ends abruptly. Apparently some of these are youtube videos? Which to me is fine, gives them a higher platform to be on. The short stories range for slow (VERY SLOW) burners to out right gory within the first 5 minutes. It does a good range of stories for everyone, but it sadly masters at none.Still a solid a watch, just don't expect a ridiculous yet awesome ending like the first one.

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.
... View MoreI didn't think the last movie was that great but it decent.I did not think it would have another sequel this quick.Unlike the last one, which only had 3 stories There's have a few and I found them far to short to enjoy But I did the Halloween theme to some of them.The first one was about mum and son, carving a pumpkin But the pumping is evil in w way More wearied then scary. OK opener but found it too kiddies Which was only about 5 mins max I don't if got order wrong but the next story I can remember is Trick r treaters I really liked that but again found to kiddies not scary however it was fun watchAnother story was about to guys going some where to feed something in the woods but we don't see anything I did not get that one at all.Another story Was about young kids going to a carnival and kill people in games , this is only really bloody story out the lot and about 3 min long Next story Was about boy who scared of the monster under the bed , this was longest Stories of the lot, yet I found dull and boring and very predicable The last one , I had already seen on you tube months ago And man who chatting to his girlfriend online and to get haunted by his ex dead girlfriend. Which was the only really decent creepy one.
... View MoreI wish there had been a real review of this movie out there before I paid money to rent this. There was absolutely nothing about this movie that approached frightening. possibly a child under 8 years of age would be scared.Please do not waste your money on this. It is not clever, scary, concise, funny or any other adjective you may want out of a horror flick. It borders on theft. I had only one thought when it was over: how do I get my money back?Be warned. Do not waste your time. Rent some older movie instead, you will be more startled by a good movie which you have already seen.
