Don't Fuck in the Woods 2

Having recently viewed the original film and partially liking some of it, had low expectations for the follow up. Surprisingly it took six plus years for the follow up sequel to be released, considering these films are lower budget and don't exactly require much filming.

However as a film, this sequel is better. The quality and budget look noticeably sharper, the camerawork and sound quality is better and the acting by the cast is improved. The lead actress from the original returns as it turned out this sequel takes place the same day as the original (or a few hours later). The lead character of Gil also was one of the highlights.

There is more consistency of a plot where it does feel more enjoyable due to its more serious tone and more suspense. There is still some silliness but as a whole it is more consistent.

This is slightly a zombie/parasite film where the original is simply a creature killing people. This twist was definitely solid where people get infected and seemingly become these zombie-like creatures. There is a lesser tone of skin shown considering this film is quite longer, yet there does still include a few scenes.

I stumbled upon the first movie in this series on Tubi. The title alone was enough to get me to watch it. I found the first one campy, yet fun to watch. Sure, there was not a lot of money spent on the effects, but there was not a lot of money spent on the movie period.

I was surprised to have heard that there was a sequel and had to watch it. The sex was cut down a lot versus the original, but they did manage to get every woman go at least topless in this one.

This movie took an unexpected turn where there is now a parasite infecting people and mutating them into what I can only guess were supposed to be earlier, not fully developed monsters from the first.

DFITW2 takes place at a summer camp that is getting ready to open. It has all the tropes that most horrors feature as far as characters, with ne development at all, but that is not why we watch these movies.

Sit back, shut off your brain and watch as the parasite and creatures try to kill off every person in the movie. For a low budget movie, it is really pretty good. There are even some people that can almost act in it. Oh and make sure you hang around for the after credit scene!

The rating is based on what it is, not what soaring movies can be as this certainly is not. There is plenty of nudity, and also plenty of tattoos. Some of the nudity one may wish they hadn't seen. There are copious amounts of blood flowing at the key points in the movie. It is a summer camp, and Gil is a caretaker, who is also a felon who served 5 years in prison, let out for good behavior. But a local sheriff (?) who is very fat wants him back in prison. The camp counselors are present, but none of the kids. There is something evil in the woods, and it is transmitted by a slug type creature, but that is not its only form. As expected, little of the acting is good and it has the low budget vibe throughout. Gil probably does the best acting job. They are isolated 50 miles from anywhere, and the sat phone got broken so they cannot call for help. And the body count increases. If one has actually been able to stay to the end, there are out takes in the credits that shows they had fun making the movie. Oh yes, it ends with the potential for a sequel.

No pun intended - and I am not talking about doing number two in the woods ... you know the question they ask about bears going ... potty in the woods - of course they do. Well this is about the making of this - going bigger than the first movie. You could have expected it I reckon - especially if you have seen the first one.

It's been a while so I do not remember much of the other movie. But we do have some ... well leftovers from the other movie. And as with any horror "franchise" you can assume (rightly) that there is more to come. The ending (and added bonus scene after the credits) do suggest that.

All that said, in case you haven't seen the first one (not sure why you are here, but that is up to you I reckon), than let me tell: there is a lot of blood and a lot of nudity. Since it still is a low budget (even with more money than the first money) movie ... do not expect too much. I think this is a step in the right direction. And it still is all made as labor of love - no pun intended. And you can tell by the few outtakes during the end credits too.

Holy mother of god! Who the hell thought it was a good idea to dump some cash on this thing?

This movie must be highly listed on the Screenplay Highlighting Inferior Talent index. I have to warn you about this dribble, and I have to have a minimum of 600 characters.

You would be better off watching La casa (1981) or La casa 2 (1987), at least they did it correctly.

Lot's of boobs, couldn't spot any plastic though. Only one scene where the thing entered a girls clacker and a bit of girly bits can be seen.

Bad acting, forgotten lines, bad set, it's all here. The story was passable, with polish and a decent budget, this movie could have risen in the ratings. Sorry, not recommending this one.
