Campamento del terror

I did not particularly like the first Bloody Murder film. I rented this hoping maybe it would be an improvement, and it was! The first 15 minutes of Bloody Murder 2 are a little lame, but it gets much better as the plot progresses and has quite a few plot twists. It's still no Friday The 13th (at least the first 8), but it's better than the average horror films of recent memory.

I also liked the fact that they used a HORROR MUSIC SCORE instead of that lame happy pop music junk that seems to be in every mainstream horror film lately. That really ruins the essence of a what a horror film should be, and hopefully the pop music fad in horror is dying off.

Bloody Murder 2 won't win any awards, but it's a well done little B-slasher film.

This second part is how producers could shown that they made a big mistake by getting actors who couldn't act, or directors who couldn't direct. They learned from that. This is part two and much much better than part one. It starts of with a dream, you are immediately in the movie. When the killer appears they only made one mistake with the chainsaw. Watch close when you see it penetrating Jason, you could easily see the mistake, anyway, I thought, o no, not again a bad movie. But then we get to learn the persons, this time they could act, they are less shameless, the girls I mean, than in the first part where they wear underwear that made you go aaaaaaaaaarghhhhhh. The score is better, editing is better, effects are better, there is more blood and more gore in it, decapitations, mutilations, full frontal nudity, first person views, it got all the ingredients to make it a good slasher. And there are a few plots in it that you couldn't suspect. For a low budget one it is surely watchable. Unavailable here in Europe, you really have to buy it in Australia like I did, maybe in the states. One of the franchises that is better then the first part, buy it.

I enjoyed this movie as a slasher not top rate movie film. There where however a few details that bugged me a bit. When Tracy is taking the shower you notice that she never took her earrings out. I don't know to much about jewelry as have never had earrings but I kind of assume that when you take a shower you would take them out? One other area was after they saw all these killings the girls still decided to split up. Also after one death had just been confirmed if I was the one running camp knowing what had previously happend I would immediately close the rest of the camp not wait around until more problems happend. Overall this is a decent movie but not one I will watch more than once.

Ok, JUST rented this and found it to be SO much better than the first one. The people in this one actually could act and not only that, but they had REASONS for going somewhere, unlike some people who would just out of NOWHERE say "Oh, i forgot the map, i'll go back and get it" while they are walking through the woods. I mean come on! But this was a BIG step up, and it wasnt the GREATEST but it was pretty good.

Its about this girl Tracy, whos brother Jason was killed five years ago at Placid Pines, why Tracy goes there to work, is beyond me. But anyway, they have to close camp for the Winter, until Trevor Moorehouse comes along and starts offing them one by one.

I think this entire thing worked out fairly well. The characters werent as paper thin as in the first, and you learned to ACTUALLY kind of care for them in the end. And finally for once, the slut or African American didnt

die first! The blood and gore was definitly there, as opposed to the original, where it had...nothing.

The acting was pretty average, the only exception being that retarded guy James or whatever his name is, when he started screaming like a five year old girl, i couldnt wait for his ass to die! As for the rest they did pretty well, especially Tiffany Shepis who did a good job as the slut, i wish i knew everyone elses real name, i could say a lot more. But everyone else did a good job for first time actors, they were actually believeable.

Overall the movie was well worth the rental fee. Disregard ever watching the first and just read reviews or plot outlines of it, youll get the gist of it fairly quick. Then go out and rent this, its definitely worth it after such a horrible original to start off.

I give Bloody Murder 2: Closing Camp a 8/10

Superior, but totally unremarkable sequel finds yet another group of youths heading for trouble when they unwisely ignore the warnings about rumored chain saw wielding serial killer Trevor Moorehouse. More blood, more guts, more sex, and more thrills then the original effort ever provided, but nothing we haven't already seen a 1000 times before. And done better at that!
