The Brotherhood 2: Young Warlocks

After watching the disaster called The Brotherhood, I vowed I would not watch any of the sequels. I guess curiosity got the best of me because there I was buying Brotherhood II on PPV. The acting and dialogue were much better than the first movie; however, the plot was missing entirely from this film. At least the first Brotherhood had some potential to be better than it was.

Also, I wouldn't call this a sequel. The first movie had a Dracula theme. This movie has a completely different set of young actors and focuses on witchcraft. If you are expecting any wand waving or hocus pocus, you will be sadly disappointed. About the only magical transformation you'll see is 3 dweebs become the most popular in school, and yet still remain only marginal looking.

If this movie is directed toward a gay audience, I don't see the point in wrapping up overt homoeroticism in an otherwise heterosexual plot. That's what makes The Brotherhood movies so frustrating and unrealistic to watch. Let the guys lust after each other already! And for gosh sakes, give these actors something other than cheap white boxer-briefs to run around in. Unless you've got the time and money to blow on this flick, don't bother.

I really enjoyed the 1st Brotherhood, and was excited to hear that there was a 2nd and 3rd. Then I watched them

The acting is poor, although some descent eye candy in the form of Holly Sampson and stacey Scowley. it would have been better if there had been osme continuity to the 3 films, I mean even the Puppet Master films had continuity to them (well Mostly) the ending was a little dull, but its a okay flick to watch if you have nothing better to do and have 90mins to pass.

David DeCoteau's second film in the lengthy BROTHERHOOD series is a marginal improvement on the first, but that's really not saying much. Once again the story sees a bunch of high school students - who are in reality warlocks - attempting to introduce new members into their group. Inevitably some of the evil characters are murderous and go around bumping off peripheral characters until the good guys step up to do something about them.

It seems that the budget for THE BROTHERHOOD 2: YOUNG WARLOCKS was slightly improved over the first, as the production values are slightly stronger. Unfortunately, there are even MORE endless scenes of young muscle guys parading around in their underwear here, as well as a three-way sex scene between two guys and a girl (what else?) which seems to last a lifetime. The whole thing is poorly acted and silly, just an excuse for the director to appeal to gay men who also have a tolerance for Z-grade produce.

If you are a Lowell High School class of 1996 alumn, then you might find this film interesting. Also, this movie over does the homo erotica bit, such as the scene where the boys must lick the warlock's face in order to join his coven.

What a waste of time. This movie goes nowhere. The acting is so bad it was almost painful to watch. These students in the film look more like thirtysomething than teenagers. If the film itself is not bad enough the ending is even worse. It makes absolutely no sence at all. The editing cuts so deep that scenes just end and your not sure what happened. The whole movie had such a homosexual vibe. I just did not get it. I don't get it...
