Okay so I tried to watch both films back to back, thinking I'd enjoy them given I've liked so far of what I have played of the first game. Now I disagree with most people on that I did enjoy the first film a lot, though it had cheesy moments like that scene with Seven Seconds Away playing over what was happening, so not the song to be playing during one of those moments let me tell you, overall I really enjoyed the first one.So, I was really excited about seeing the second one, and I have to say, what a heap of ****. I won't bother typing out my own review, all I will tell you is read the review by grandmastersik because mine is exactly like his, minus spending 15 minutes trying to use the force to get the remote, I just couldn't remember where I'd put mine down to be able to turn it off.

ALONE IN THE DARK 2 is a sequel that has virtually nothing in common with the first film except for the main character this time played by DIE ANOTHER DAY's Rick Yune but it is in a way better than the first one because it has a well put together storyline that is well fleshed out and the direction is very nicely handled, the best part is Uwe Boll didn't even direct this one.The acting is a case of hit and miss, some of cast hit their mark such as Bill Moseley and Lance Henriksen that both play their parts convincingly, the one cast member that misses the most is Rick Yune, I also saw him in a film called THE 5TH COMMANDMENT and between this one and that one, the ideal leading man he is not because he doesn't bring any energy to his character which results in him failing to carry the film.The fact that this film is better shows that the writers and directors Peter Scheers and Micheal Roesch put in more effort with this film than Uwe Boll did with the first, so take notes Mr. Boll you might learn something.

I'll watch just about anything that has Lance Henriksen in it because he's one of my favorite actors. The movies can range from good quality to bottom-of-the-barrel quality, but even in the stinkers, Lance manages to keep them entertaining with his own unique style of doing things.I'll say that this movie was somewhat better than i expected. What i got was an interesting piece which i might sooner qualify as a supernatural thriller than a horror movie. The movie was enjoyable in a not-to-be-taken-too-seriously sort of way. This movie had potential. The story and especially the themes are interesting and the movie did have a huge cast of names. Lance Henriksen, Bill Moseley, just to name a few. The only important drawback of this film that it's not scary enough.To summarize, "Alone in the Dark Two" had a promising beginning and if the premise could be better utilized, it could have even been a great horror film.

Because, you know...Alone in the Dark 1 was such a great film and all. Was it really necessary to make an even worse sequel to an already horrible film? This one is shockingly good at being completely worthless. The special effects were a complete mess. The acting was very hit or miss (some did a fairly decent job however it's not worth sticking up for them as they agreed to work on this filth). The story is all over the place. I've never seen a movie that felt like those involved realized nothing good was going to come of it so they just gave up and threw together what had been done and submitted it as a finished product. Now I have.
