7/10
Better than the first but not so great
19 November 1998
I hated the first anyway. I never planned on seeing the sequel but here I am. Anyhow, the thing with this film is that you have to take it for what it is: a cheesy teen slasher thing. I wasn't disappointed partly because I didn't expect anything but crap (and breasts). After thinking about it, I felt the script had been rushed. Many good ideas fall flat and the characters look so insanely dumb! (why didn't she use that axe??) It's the kinda film that makes you wish you had been involved with the project so that you could have told everyone how to improve most of the scenes in the script. Anyway, not a bad horror film, for what it's worth. On the plus side you have the fantastic atmosphere created by the storm (very classic) and the whole isolation factor (another classic). It's also strangely fun to see Brandy fall through so much glass. And thank God, it's not pretending to be witty like Scream 2 and H2O tried to. Williamson can go back to school if he can't find anything else. Go see it if you like that kinda film; you know who you are.
