Review of Friday the 13th Part 2 (1981) by Movieznp — 07 Mar 2019

I give this movie one thing. It's not f**king horrible like the second Nightmare on Elm Street movie. But isn't good. .

Good : Some kills were good. Particularly one with the machete on the face. .

Mixed : It had more jumpscares than kills. The jumpscares work better than what we get today. But, was it a slasher or a mediocre 2010s supernatural/gothic horror? Why scares? At least give terrifying kills if you don't know what to do with it!! .

Bad : With the second movie, the franchise didn't become any better. But it's still the same mediocre direction and mediocre script. Consistency? I guess that's what it is. It begins really stupidly. You can fast forward the first six and a half minutes of this movie. It's just the flashbacks from the previous movie. And people, please stop making "Alien³" the target, this movie and Nightmare 4 did the same thing before Alien³. It retains all the negatives of the first movie. Same boring pace, and screenplay and direction issues. The good aspects are lowered down, too. At least Betsy Palmer was there to be someone who performed well. No one does a good job here. The characters are still uninteresting as hell. To make things worse, it has pointless nude and perverted scenes which do not fit in the movie. The opening credits show nothing, it can be skipped easily. Some scenes are just too long, and could've been trimmed. But we can skip that, can't we? Well these are some additional negatives. For my complete thought, you can refer to my review of the first movie. Most of the negatives are retained. I don't want to repeat myself again. .

Conclusion : Turn your brain off and be entertained by this piece of s**t. .

Rating. .

Score : 4.
