Redwood Massacre: Annihilation

I am very surprised this movie got a sequel but I will say I loved that they used a character from the movie prior in the beginning.

Now it's pretty obvious that this is better then the first one; It's produced better, it's darker, the story was more interesting but still not that good and ended up creating more questions that were never answered, but they set themselves up perfectly for another movie so hopefully those questions get answered. Now something odd they did was change the origin story of the killer and even mentioned other attempts at making other killers. With the origin story changed they gave room for fan interpretations which is always fun; Mine is that the legend of the farmer was a planted cover up to mask the project and killers they created.

This film is a big improvement on "The Redwood Massacre", but a heavy cold is a big improvement on influenza; most people would rather have neither. Although it may be considered a sequel or perhaps more accurately a follow-up, it has little in common with the first film apart from the setting. And there was no actual necrophilia in the original. Yes, there are some realistic if depraved special effects; the plot is extremely implausible as our group of ill-fated adventurers are lured or lure themselves to what is thought to be an abandoned RAF base but turns out to be something very different.

The final scene is a contradiction, reverting from horror to what some might consider comedy horror. The big question is, will it make you laugh or cry?

Yes it's a typical horror, but if you love gore and little suspenseful jumpy parts then this is great. The effects were good, the mask the butcher wears is awesome, the acting was fine (not great but Gus was spectacular) It's definitely worth the watch for people who like gory slashers.

No pun intended and maybe the trifecta (word) that is missing from the title. The movie and sequel itself is anything but a destruction. Actually as you can see with my rating I kind of think this is well done. Considering people say that the older you get, the grumpier you get ... maybe I am not there yet. Bare with me - and this slasher movie.

I don't even remember the other movie - which is quite obvious considering the low score I gave it. This one however has way better actors in it, I would argue from the trailer I rewatched from the first, it looks way better too. And the effects are probably a bit more .. at least refined.

You get quite the bloody affair here (again sorry for the pun), but it works in favor of the movie. Unless you have issues and are faint of heart ... probably shouldn't be watching this anyway. The ending is a bit ... well lukewarm I think is what people would call it, but other than that, this works its charm ...

This is a standard lower budget horror movie. It is not a comedy unless you consider a mediocre plot to be comedy. There are corny parts through out the movie and some medium level scary parts. It had potential, but it just sort of missed the mark. If you have 90 minutes and you feel like a lower budget horror movie, try it out.
