2/10
By the time each of the characters say their first line, you're hoping they all die violently.

You can have all the CGI effects you want and ear busting sound effects, but if you don't have a decent script or likable characters, you don't have a film and in the case of this direct-to-video sequel to a 1999 pointless remake of a classic horror film, what you get is a film that is easy to hate from the very start. I saw the remix when it first was released on video, and found it disturbingly gross and pointless and filled with anger.

This long unneeded sequel is 10 times as bad, filled with lousy acting and characters so deserving I'm being pushed into the vat of acid from the original film that you feel you might want to stick around you just to see it. But is it really worth the waste of your not your time? That question is in the eye of the viewer, and I try to give a film at least an hour before I decide if I want to proceed towards that conclusion.

This film doesn't last much more than an hour and even then, it is difficult and all of the characters just makes you hate it all the more. It doesn't have anything that you haven't seen in a mockbuster made by the hideous direct-to-video movie studio Asylum, and watching this makes you wish you were in one to where you didn't have access to horrible movies like this. The film doesn't have any motivation other than to gross-out the viewer, and with nothing a value, it isn't even worth using as a hot drink coaster. Simply skip it and go back and see the original 1959 version which may be campy and unintentionally funny but it's at least entertaining. This film is pure compost.
