Well, after watching the first 'Violent Shit' film, I couldn't help myself but watch the sequel because I couldn't comprehend how this movie could get much sicker than its predecessor. The plot is along the same lines as the first 'Violent Shit' except that the infamous Karl "The Butcher" who is slayed in the first 'Violent Shit' leaves behind his son Karl "The Butcher" Jr. to take over...with the help of his sick, twisted and perverted mother. Mommy dearest gives orders to Karl "The Butcher" Jr. and he listens, even if it's "motherly affection." This movie is one of the most disturbing and perverted movies I've ever seen as I thought nothing could top the first 'Violent Shit'. There is more of the same style slaughtering and torture in this film but with a sick twist on a relationship between a mother and son. If you're into shock value - or lots and lots of blood and guts - this film could make as the perfect Christmas present for you.

Moving on if not exactly moving up with Andreas Schnaas, Violent Sh!t 2 deals with the adventures of Karl Jr., son and heir of K. The Butcher Sh!tter from part 1. In the first few scenes there's the faintest sign that Schnaas has even made fairly radical advances, there's an ineptly choreographed but competently lensed fight scene following the breakdown of a drug deal, a couple of stylish dusky silhouette shots, even mild excitement. Even more far out though is the detour the film then takes into Hamburg, for a few moments it looks as if this one might actually have a plot, and more than one location! But no worries, its not too long before the film settles back into a comfortable rut of Karl Jr. in a forest, killing everyone he meets. Campers, joggers, fisherman, campers, construction workers, more campers, no one can escape Karl and his big cleaver or sometimes his gun or hook. His mom also gets a bit of screen time, weird old crone who considerably ups the discomfort and perversion factor (no prizes for guessing what sort of things go down). Basically the standard sequel template is followed, same plot, higher bodycount, more protracted scenes of slaughter, added perversion, nudity and even intentional humour. All this and the most egregious stylistic tics of the original are largely toned down, whilst there are still a fair few jumpy edits, daft freeze frames or fade outs and various other silliness on the whole things are much more controlled and in the end as with the beginning even stylish and a wee bit exciting. For all that things have come on though, I can't say as I found this one as charming an experience as the first. A large part of this was probably down to watching a subtitle free print, and since my knowledge of German is pretty limited the dialogue with all its potential smarts and subtleties passed me by. OK I wasn't expecting smarts or subtleties, that was a lie. But I'm sure it was funny, and extremely silly, and all the other good things. I didn't exactly have problems following the plot, but the repetitive, set-up kill, set-up kill structure becomes a lot less interesting when you don't know what anyone is saying, even a two minute appearance just to get slaughtered can be fun if the audience knows what you are saying, not so much here. More particular to the film, it was shorter and had more padding than the original, never a good sign. And on a basic level, this sort of thing works best as a one off. Its nice to see Karl becoming a truly epic villain, but it would even nicer to see more of the spectacle and variety that come little but in the finale here. Still, this is a watchable time waster with lots of cheap dismemberment, disembowelment and all the things you want to see, including some nasty genital abuse to make you squirm. Worth watching if you have too, but mainly for die hards only I'd say.

For those who made it through the original Violent Shit, and actually want to see more, here is the sequel.

Violent Shit II is about Karl the Butcher Jr. and his psychotic mother. Not quite as gory as the first movie, it still has some great scenes. If you can watch this, you can probably watch anything.

Seeing these two films back-to-back should be a cathartic experience for anyone with a great deal of pent-up anger, hostility, and frustration. By the end of this one, you should be feeling much better -- especially if your blood-alcohol content is 0.20 or more. I just hope your vision isn't too blurred to read the subtitles.

It may be hard to find Violent Shit and its sequel, but if you like shockingly gory, perverted, low-budget trash cinema, then it's well worth it. One last thing: Be careful about showing this to your friends -- some of them may decide to avoid you in the future.

Boy, I've seen some really violent and bloody movies in my time, but none quite like this. This may not rank as the goriest movie ever made (even though it is extremely bloody and gruesome), but it definitely qualifies as the most disgusting in this genre. The movie is about a retarded mama's boy who is raised by his perverted mother, thinking that killing people is okay, especially since his father was killed (Violent Shit 1). When he finally becomes old enough and big enough to start a murder rampage, his mother brainwashes him to murder every person who enters their domain (the woods) to avenge daddy's death. In order to satisfy his dear mum, not just sexually, but mentally, he kills his victims in EXTREMELY GRUESOME AND VILE METHODS, some of which I never thought I'd see on film. These killings are so graphic and sick that I can't even mention them here!!! Either way you put it, after viewing this horrific film, I came to the conclusion that director Andreas Schnaas definitely needs psychiatric help because a person has to be "not normal" to think of a sickening movie like this. I definitely don't recommend this movie to the faint of heart, kids, or to people who are upset at the sight of death. This one is just too sick to be funny. UnratedX

This is the first Violent shit movie I have been able to see and the first thing that hits you is the extreme amateurish nature of it. People I've known have said that 'Bad Taste' was very amateur but you really don't know what amateur is until you've seen this. Although putting that aside you can glean some entertainment value from this if you have a sick sense of humour. Best to skip through the post-title talking because this film doesn't really have or need a plot. Just skip straight to Karl getting on with the killing. The movie was quite dissapointingly short with a very abrupt ending(without a reason to back it up like BWP) If you are looking for gore perversity and bad acting, this is the movie for you and it certainly delivers on the gore. One thing I have to say, ball bursting, OUCH! 3/10

Violent Shit 2 by German Andreas Schnaas is another attempt in over the top gore department, but it is not as brutal as first "Shit" film, which had no humor in it. Shit 2 tries to be funny at the same time and that is its worst mistake as it definitely is not funny, just stupid. Gore flows again in nasty detail and people are knifed, sliced, hooked and blown off in low budget gore spirit. Couple of scenes are disgusting and nasty (for example the "hook" scene) and some effects are okay done for example the shootings and so on..But this is nothing special and recommended for gorehounds only and the ones who have seen the first film, that is far more disturbing piece of "Shit." I think that part two may be "easier" to watch due to its comic elements, but all others than horror fanatics will find this impossible to sit through.

5/10 as a splatter pick and worth watching if you think you're interested in this stuff. But not as near as nasty as the first Violent Shit. If you're interested in German underground horror, I suggest Jörg Buttgereit's cinema.

Invite 5 of your friends into a Forest and bring a camcorder, a bucket of ketchup, a machete, a mask and a 6-pack.

Drink a few beers and decide who can be the deranged serial killer and who are playing the victims.

After you decide, split up in the Forest count till 10 and the start running, make weird sounds, swing the machete and make a decorated blood bath with the ketchup.

(its important to let some one film the actions who isn't involved in the script, decided a couple of minutes ago during drinking the beers) Repeat this sequence a couple of times till approx. 85 minutes and upload the file from your camcorder in WIndows Moviemaker.

Make a Small intro and a small credit roll and there it is,.

your own self-made Violent SHT!

This one reminds me of the early works of Peter "Bad Taste" Jacksons. It's much better than the first one. There is better effects and it is also technically better. So if you like stupid (german) dialogue, sick effects and no plot, this one should do it. There's also refferences to other horror classics like Friday the 13th and Evil Dead. It's out on DVD, in a German Special Edition. All three Violent Shit movies+ tons of extra material, like Behind the scene, audio commentaries and slideshow. A must buy for splatter fans!

Andreas Schnaas' sequel to his aptly-named, incredibly violent debut 'Violent Sh*t' is, once again, incredibly violent—perhaps even more-so than its predecessor—and can possibly still be described as 'sh*t', depending on your point of view; however, this time around, there's the faintest semblance of a story, a bit of dark humour, and even a heavy metal theme song ('Violent Sh*t' by Vice Versa), all of which made it a pretty entertaining experience for this particular gore-hound.

To get to the juicy stuff, you must first make it past some dreadfully dreary dreck in which a journalist investigating a series of murders delves into the history of Karl the Butcher (the mad killer from part one); manage to stay awake through that, though, and you'll eventually be treated to some of the most insane scenes of over-the-top gore ever committed to film, as Karl's son, Karl the Butcher Jr., attempts to please his mother by avenging his father's death: as well as the usual plethora of stabbings, decapitations, and disembowelments that one can rightly expect from such a film, we get a head sliced in two with a spade, a killing spree at a porn cinema, a testicle pierced with a fish-hook (the nastiest moment, as far as I'm concerned), and even a spot of vagina stapling (yes, you read that right!).

The graphic gory effects are of the home-made variety which are unlikely to cause any of Hollywood's true make-up masters to have sleepless nights, but they are extremely messy and undeniably nasty—and best of all, the blood no longer looks like watery red paint! Violent Sh*t II is certainly no masterpiece of horror, but is a big improvement over the first film, and its target audience—those who enjoy extreme low-budget gore—should find it hits the spot nicely.

Violent $hit II (1992)

** (out of 4)

This sequel takes place twenty years after the original and this time it's Karl 'The Butcher' Jr. who is doing the killer, seeking revenge for the murder of his father (the killer from the original). This time out Karl Jr. is also getting instructions from his mother.

I really wasn't a fan of Andreas Schnaas' VIOLENT $HIT but this sequel was much more entertaining even if it's basically the same type of stuff we saw in the first. I enjoyed this sequel a lot more because there was a better story here or at least a type of story that we could follow. Yes, the first film was all about the gore and this sequel is too but the deranged son being given orders from his weird mother leads to some interesting stuff.

As I said, the main reason to check out this film is for the non-stop gore and some of it enters a very vile territory and especially some of the more sexually explicit scenes. This includes certain male parts being cut off as well as a woman who meets a very disgusting stapler. There's pretty much one outrageous and over-the-top gore scene after another and they're rather clever in their own way and they certainly add to what entertainment you're going to get from this.

VIOLENT $HIT II isn't a masterpiece or even a good film but it delivers what you'd expect from it and it's certainly much better than the original.

This movie really got the right title because there are not any "real" actions to be mentioned. The movie is about Karl "The Butcher" junior who takes revenge for his father who was killed in "Violent Shit I". So he kills everyone he sees in a very brutal way. The movie is very entertaining and bloody. If you have got enough beer you can really spend a nice evening with "Violent Shit II"...

this film was ummmm junk yes if you love blood and gore you will not be disappointed theres some sick gruesome twisted stuff in this little puppy however granted it is shot on camcorder with no budget BUT sorry its still crap if this was made with a better budget, decent acting and without the dodgy 80's metal soundtrack, this could be a corker of a film cos the killings are unique and extremely nasty and bloodthirsty in the right hands this could be an awesome, brutal texas chainsaw/psycho crossbreed with a bite like a rabid dog instead its a mess heh at least half the title got it right (oh and theres evidence of there being a first one so i guess its a third of the title =)....) 2/10 (cos the karate dude knew his stuff for a neighbour of the director or whatever he was)

Well i finally got to see VS 2 and 3 together and my response to 2 is based on the fact that part 3 is so good.VS 2 basically repeats VS 1,but this time with an underlying plot about a reporter.Karl Jr is the killer here(he was born at the end of VS 1 if you remember)killing people for his mother or something.Anyway he wears a mask,and makes idiotic quips when he kills.This is basically like VS 1,a bad taste extravaganza.Nothing is too bizarre,or in too poor taste for the makers its seems and thats good,but....VS 2 drags its feet a little,and if youve seen the first it lacks the shock appeal.But the gore is improved,as is the films technique(maybe they bought a better camcorder!)and its good fun if you dont take it seriously.As for nastiness check out the scene where the dude gets hooked in the testes....ouch.
