I still can't decide if the plot, characters, dancing, music, or the villian is the worst part of this movie. But God knows I won't be watching it a second time to figure that out. Extremely cheesy 80's horror, so if that's your thing, maybe you'll enjoy it. I didn't go into the film expecting much, thankfully. But man...it's not a good one.

The Plot = After Vicki's friends were brutally murdered at a slumber party a couple of years ago she was admitted to an asylum. Her younger sister, Courtney is all grown up now though and is getting ready to leave for a slumber party weekend with her girlfriends. What she doesn't know is that someone is all ready there, waiting for them... or is it all in Courtney's mind?
Naked girls in pillow fights, a killer with a drill at the end of his guitar and weird hallucinations, wow did this sequel change the story completely or what. The first "Slumber Party Massacre" was good, this sequel however is just too strange, It definitely ain't as good as the first one, I mean the dream sequences are just weird and the killer is far from scary to be honest I found him rather stupid He looks like he was pulled out from some 80s rock band with his leather jacket and very customised guitar. I guess they tried to make it a bit more original than the first one. Either way, It's is still a very entertaining movie and if you liked the first one, you will definitely like this one as well.

One of the survivors from the original Courtney (Crystal Bernard) is having horrible dreams while her sister Valerie is in a mental institution. Courtney also plays guitar in a band with other schoolmates Amy (Kimberly McArthur) and interestingly two FRIDAY THE 13TH victims in Juliette Cummins (playing Sheila) and Heidi Kozak (playing Sally). Sadly, they are rather unconvincing as a band. Anyways, the band is going to Sheila's dads' new condo for the weekend. Meanwhile, Courtney is dreaming of a rocker (Atanas Ilitch) donning leather who just happens to have a large drill on the end of his guitar. And who also has zippo to do with the original driller killer.
Borrows poorly from the vastly superior A NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET and any connection made to the original is really paper-thin. This movie really is a mess and would have given it a higher vote, but the last 20 minutes were just down right horrible. In fact while chasing his victims the serial killer doesn't break into song once...no he does it twice. B-B-B-B-BAD!
Might work to watch with some horror buddies over a few beers to get a good laugh at, but not in the same ball park as the original.

I rented this for free with the intention of getting a good laugh. I got exactly that. Invite some friends over, watch this movie, and prepare to die laughing. If it's not a falling rubber hand, or a flying chicken, it's a killer with a drill..... on his electric guitar! This movie is worth the two or three dollars you would spend to rent it just for the laughs. Great fun. And next time you and your friends are having a naked champagne fight, watch out for the Driller Killer!

I first saw this in the early 90s on a vhs. Revisited it recently.
The actual movie is of 69 mins but the runtime is 76 mins with the start n end credits. The deal is, nothing happens for the entire 50 mins apart from the lousy dream sequences, lousy music n a bit of nudity.
So whatever action happens, it happens for 19 mins that too with too much overacting by the driller killer, his lousy antics, lousy jacket, etc gets on ur nerves.
In one scene the girls r far ahead on a rooftop while the killer is behind pursuing them taking his own time singing but in another scene he is right in front of the girls. Supernatural killer. Wtf man.
Generous with a 2 for the lil bit of nudity.

I'm angry with myself for watching the whole movie. The first movie was at least fun but this was beyond stupid. The acting was so bad, I don't know how Crystal Bernard ever got another acting job after this movie. Pure garbage, don't waste your time.

Don't listen to the good reviews, Slumber Party Massacre II is terrible and not in a good way and the music is even worse.
It do not really continue from Slumber Party Massacre I, It is more like a mix of a really bad ripoff off Nightmare from Elm Street and a musical, it is not scary, it is not fun, it is not even bad in a good way, just simply awful, especially the last 20 minutes is just dragging on forever. Did I mention the music is terrible.
On the the good side, there are not that many plot holes, that would require a plot,

Here's a gem. Can anyone tell me what the hell is going on here? I had so many questions at the end of this movie. Like how come at first the killer was only in Courtney's dreams, and then all of a sudden he was real? How did that fool kill all those kids without anyone being able to stop him? Why won't Blockbuster refund my money for this junk?
Overall, though, this movie rocks because it's so atrocious. The characters are all so lame that you end up rooting for the killer because he's the coolest guy in the movie! He's also got some sweet lines that should never be said anywhere unless you don't like having friends, because they're so corny. If you love bad-- and I mean really bad-- movies, rent this turd. It's an entertaining 90 minutes of your life that you can never have back.

This is my good deed for the day.
DO NOT watch "Slumber Party Massacre II". I'm begging you, do anything else but. If it's a nice day, go and take a walk. Bad day? Stay in and read a good book, watch TV, build a model car. ANYTHING.
This movie is bad. Way bad. Beyond the valley of the bad. Bad to the bone, marrow and nucleus. There is absolutely not one single reason for this movie to have been made, exist, certainly none for watching it now and definitely none for watching it later.
The girls can't act (par for the course in this genre), the policemen who show up are named Kruger and Voorhies (excuse me - ha, ha, ha.) and the killer is a textbook example of creating one of the worst killers in history.
He's a bad hybrid of Jason, The Fonz and Elvis. Complete with a Gibson outfitted by Black and Decker, he drills his victims as he plays a bad song on his guitar o'death, cracks a one-liner any jaded horror movie fan would turn their nose up at, then disappears. Whoever this actor, Atanas Ilitch, is, I hope he thought better of his acting prospects after this movie and either dropped out of show business or changed his name and started choosing projects better.
Bernard stars as one of the hapless girls and the less said of this ex-"Wings" star's involvement in a slice-and-dice feature, the better.
And can ANYONE, anyone on this planet we call Earth, explain the ending? Anyone, who isn't on heavy medication? If you think you can, maybe you should because no matter how you slice this one, it's still baloney.
No stars. It's a "Massacre", all right. This one killed 75 minutes stone cold dead.

Slumber Party Massacre II is not the first Slumber Party Massacre - what on God's green Earth could be? - but it cuts its own distinctive style by being so adorably terrible that one can't help but admire it somehow. It has padding in its 75 minute run-time, and can do that since the girl friends around the main character have a band (the sister from the previous film, Courtney, of the main girl from the last movie, though damn if I could remember that even having just seen the first one two weeks ago, different actress by the way of course).
It's also a movie where if there even *is* a serial killer is in question since it could all be in the majorly PTSD'd, nightmare-riddled Courtney's mind. If the first movie was liberally borrowing (one might say ripping off but no, heavens no, that's not the Corman way is it?) from Halloween, then this is liberally borrowing from the Nightmare on Elm Street films (a scene of Courtney in a bath-tub seems like it was lifted so hard from the first one its ridiculous, and I almost thought it would oddly enough take from the third one, which came out the same year, but not quite the case), and at the heart of it is the most awesomely silly killer I've ever seen in a slasher.
Who is this killer? Try to imagine Quentin Tarantino hit his head on a sink and after he came to was tasked to write an 80's slasher movie - this is what he might come up with: Atanas Ilitch is having the time of his life playing this "Driller Killer", who would appear to be a psychological terror of Courtney's years after the first massacre happened, but is um... actually there? Is that a spoiler? The reasoning for why he finally leaps forward may actually make some sense is going by the usual (strict?) code of conduct for these kinds of movies - if you're a virgin, the moment you have sex is when you get it right through the vitals - and but in the moment it seems like it has only the slimmest rationale, and it fully becomes a "slasher", as in Ilitch's killer going after these innocent/obnoxious teens (some more than others), in the last act.
Before this is a lot of gloriously dumb scenes; at one point, the girls have an actual pillow fight and some/most of them take off their clothes to do so, and on that immediate beat two of the guys in the movie look on through a window and say, "they actually DO do this!" Again, the songs take up a good number of minutes (without them this might barely make a feature-length run-time), but they're not the worst ever, just that kind of mediocre 80's rock-pop that Corman was able to buy for 10 cents. The performances are also what you expect, but what makes the movie stand out a bit is that the filmmaker - once again a woman, and Corman was good about hiring women to make his movies, regardless of artistry, Deborah Brock in this case - tries to ape at times another Corman alumni, Jonathan Demme; there are multiple scenes where characters look directly at the camera as if to us and speak (for example when one of the teens finally calls the cops, prematurely really, when Courtney is having one of her hallucination/nightmare freak-outs). What is this supposed to do? I am sure I still don't know.
A lot of this is not good, and actually it's pretty terrible. What gives it the rating it gets is that it's a massively entertaining bad movie, one of those that sticks out among the multitudes of 80's slashers (and back then you could randomly throw a rock and hit a piece of s*** slasher movie); what is significant here is that the pace never slackens too much, the actors are mostly likable, the tone is appropriately silly (but not in a way where they're too knowing of it), and the climax is completely bananas as characters run through an unfinished building as the slasher/singer does his Rockabilly thing with his drill. It'd also be a total blast for a party movie night.

Has there ever been a movie that would have been hurt by having a plot? I point to Slumber Party Massacre II. Who was the killer? Where did he come from? Why was he killing them? Where can I get a guitar like that? Why did he continually do the intro to "wipe-out?" Was it all a dream? Or was it a memory of a dream of a hallucination of a dream? Does the director want me to believe that break-dancing is frightening? Why didn't the girl with large breasts get naked? Why did the ugly girl get naked at all? Why the blow-up doll? Why did they build up the romance of the girl from Wings (the sitcom, not the parade of stock footage from the Discovery channel which was much more entertaining) and Rob Lowe's little brother , only for him to be the first to get drilled? Was the killer made out of oily rags? What was happening at all in this movie!
Frankly, I don't care. A lucid plot would have been a dead weight on this movie, dragging it down and holding it back from becoming the paragon of movie making that it is. All movies should be written and directed while drunk and filmed over a weekend in a housing development while the foreman was in the port-a-jon. A rocker with a drill on his guitar! Breakdancing! Blow-up dolls! Unlike the killer, I got satisfaction!

Troubled with strange nightmares, a teen decides to head out to an under-construction condo-site to rehearse songs for an upcoming gig with her band-members for her birthday weekend, but when some sort of demon proceeds to tear through them with a power drill it ends up forcing them to take shelter against the maniac.
This one here is a pretty nice offering with some rather decent moments. One of the main ones is the sheer 80s cheese that runs through the film. From the kooky dance numbers through the bands' rehearsals to the slumber party atmosphere that soon turns into a wild group dance and eventual striptease, it feels like an 80s slasher for most of the time. These are quite fun and actually add an air of coherence to the first one, which was pretty similar in that aspect. The weapon of choice, a rather large guitar with the head made out into a giant power drill, leads to a great visual that really allows for some great scenes that only serve to enhance this cheesy atmosphere. That also comes into the other cheesy factor involved here with the stalking scenes throughout here. There's the sight of the killer chasing after the victims late in the film that has some nice scenes to it because of the large killing object in place. The gore itself isn't that bad for an 80s film and is mostly relegated to the drill boring all the way through the body and out, leaving behind impressive wounds that are really dripping with viscera. The final chase through the under-construction apartment houses is really impressive and is a great way to end the film. The freak-outs provide even more carnage and in some cases pretty creepy surreal images, from the exploding zit and fish sandwich that attacks her and the other strange incidents. These here are all that makes the film watchable as there isn't a whole lot wrong with this one, but it does have a couple of problems. The big one is that the absolute utter lack of a body count in this one. It has almost none, and the few that are killed are killed the same way with the drill rammed through a body part. It's not original or creative and doesn't have very many opportunities to distinguish itself from the other slashers out there. Rather than doing something with it, this one has nothing come from the kills as they're all done the same way and don't go anywhere, with the killing weapon being the difference, and it really would've been better had a few more got knocked off with some other form of weapon which would've been a lot better. The other thing is that the killing probably should've started earlier in the film than it does, as beginning the killing around the fifty-minute mark of a seventy-minute movie is problematic on several accounts. First is that there's just that short window of opportunity to get damage in, and it isn't all that great when it occurs. The other is that there's a lot of missed opportunities for most of the time, leaving it for some to appear forever for something to happen to focus on the hallucinations driving her crazy or the girls partying. The last flaw would be the joke of a killer, hopping around like a greaser wannabe, spouting off non-joke one-liners and preening for a non-existent music video with awful music blaring which really takes the fear out. It's cheese-level could be a detriment, but otherwise, this here is just decent.

This film is utter garbage but it's so bad it's good. I was laughing my head off
What was the funniest part? Was it the the uncomfortably long time Matt has his hand on Courtney's shoulder at the start, the excessive product placement, the hilarious pillow fight, the awful band or maybe the dance number they throw in at the end
Plus The Driller Killer, what the hell is all that about?
Also was it just me but did it not seem Matt was far to old to still be in school
The writer Deborah Brock needs to write more comedy horror

Years ago, Valerie Bates and her little sister Courtney were the soul survivors of a drill-wielding psychopath. However, the experience put poor Valerie in a mental institution, leaving her tomboyish little sister and the girls' mother alone to cope. That was years ago, however and now young Courtney has grown up to be a teenage knockout, who just happens to look like Crystal Bernard of the TV show "Wings" fame. She is struggling to live a normal life, despite terrible dreams involving her institutionalized sister, blood, gore, smoke and a James Dean-from Hell looking Rock N Roller, who just happens to use as his weapon of choice, GET THIS, a fire engine red guitar drill! She tries to put her dreams out of her mind by accompanying her girlfriends on a weekend of fun and partying, but her dreams go right along with her, as poor Courtney begins to have insane hallucinations involving the black clad shock rocker from her dreams. As this is going on, her friends slowly begin to disappear one by one. Can it be true? Has the Driller Killer been reincarnated as kind of a demonic Elvis Presley? Or is Miss Courtney Bates ready for a one way trip to the Booby Hatch? While this movie may not be (Ok, IS NOT) the greatest movie ever made, it does qualify as a KILLER B Movie (Pardon The Pun). Besides, let's be honest folks, who wouldn't want to own the Driller Killer's Guitar Drill? The Guitar Drill ALONE makes the movie worth seeing, and the gore sequences and fire special effects DON'T hurt.

I don't care what anybody says, SLUMBER PARTY MASSACRE sucks in every way possible. It's based on a few girls that get away to vacation home. One of them happens to be Courtney, who was the survivor of the original film, which is in my opinion far superior. Anyways, Courtney is a teenager now and she and her friends are trying to get away for the weekend. However, Courtney is troubled by reoccurring nightmares of the "Driller Killer." Once everyone gets settled in, the mayhem starts. Only this time, mental patient Russ Thorn is not the killer. Instead, it's some lame rock n' roll figure with an electric guitar. He almost looks like an 80's rocker, but his music isn't anywhere in that realm. I would have liked to hear some POISON, RATT, MOTLEY CRUE, EUROPE or DOKKEN on the soundtrack. Nope, instead we get lame rock n' roll garbage. Come on now, this is the 80's not the 50's. The killer has a drill attached to the end of his guitar, to which is how he kills his victims. The premise is just ridiculous. It's not funny, in any fashion. There are however, some hot chicks in it. Case in point, Heidi (Friday 13th VII, Sociey) Kozak. But it's not her fault that the story sucked so bad. Heck, she just needed a paycheck. STAY AWAY from the second entry of the series. You are far better off cashing in on the first and third installment of the series.

Right, well I wasn't really a fan of the 1982 movie "Slumber Party Massacre", so I haven't been in much of any hurry to get to watch the 1987 sequel "Slumber Party Massacre II". Yet, I had the opportunity to sit down and watch it here in 2023, and opted to do so. Though I have to say that I wasn't harboring much of any hopes or expectations to the movie.
Writer and director Deborah Brock managed to deliver a movie that was very much in the spirit of the 1982 movie, for better or worse. So if you enjoyed the first movie, then you will certainly also enjoy this 1987 sequel. However, it also means that if you didn't enjoy the first movie, then you will not enjoy the sequel either. And yup, I didn't enjoy "Slumber Party Massacre II" at all.
The storyline in "Slumber Party Massacre II" was just hands down rubbish. A bunch of young men and women are being chased by a rock 'n' roll reject with a laughable guitar with a rubber drill at the end of it. And that was about it, that was all the movie had to offer. The movie was rather devoid of a plausible or even remotely entertaining plot.
It was, however, fun to see the likes of a young Crystal Bernard running around in a movie such as this. However, it just wasn't enough to make "Slumber Party Massacre II" a good movie.
This is late 1980s cheese in every sense of that term.
My rating of "Slumber Party Massacre II" lands on a three out of ten stars.

My rating of "Slumber Party Massacre II" lands on a three out of ten stars.

This sequel is so over the top. I prefer the first slumber movie. 3/10 Very ridiculous sequel with some good moments.

Wow...just...Wow. This movie is on my list of worst horror movies of all time. I really wish "0" was a rating option for this crap. I know sequels are supposed to be "not so great" but this is a waste of effort. I'm guessing the makers of the this movie were just thinking of the money. The original was a "B" movie at it's best. Slumber Party Massacre 2 has no plot, not even bad acting but worse and it's ripping off of "A Nightmare on Elm Street" which is one of the best horror movies of all time. I don't get people on here saying it's a "10/10"? Do yourself a favor and just watch the first one and pretend the sequels don't exist. Glad I didn't buy the box set of the 3 movies and rented the sequels first. Paying for that would have been really annoying.Brutal.

Although I am a HUGE fan of SPM1, I was sorely disappointed by the sequel. I was so excited to see it, only to find out it was a musical. Expecting a brilliant slasher film, I was pumped. But then the singing began, and I couldn't take it. I mean, it still has a place in my heart, just for being in the SPM family, but it just didn't do it for me. Although it did have that great pillow-fight scene which just about made up for it being a musical.

God Bless DVD, they are releasing alot of hard to find movies on it and I managed to get this one. I wasn't expecting anything big but boy was this movie FUN. The killer was cool, the suspense was good, the deaths were GORY but the ending DOES suck. I gave this movie 9/10 (no I'm not on drugs) it was just alot of fun.

The first Slumber Party Massacre was an enjoyable attempt at a satirical slasher film long before Scream even if it didn't totally succeed at what it was attempting. This sequel carries over a few of the surviving characters from that film, but goes in such a wild and bizarre direction that you have to applaud the filmmakers for the sheer audacity they display.
After the events of the last movie, Courtney is trying to get to normal even though her sister, Valerie, is stuck in a mental hospital. Courtney has a new group of friends and they even have a decent all-girls band together, but a slumber party will reawaken all her trauma when a psycho with a murderous guitar crashes their celebration.
Slumber Party Massacre II starts out as your average sequel complete with dream sequences and flashbacks, but once the singing killer shows up, logic flies out the window and you'll either go along for the ride or end up scowling the entire time. I went along the ride and ended up really enjoying it. At under 80 minutes, it's not like it's a huge commitment.
