Killers 2: The Beast (2002 Video)
1/10
Survival of the beastliest
18 February 2024
Almost inconceivable that the atrocious 'Killers' would spawn a sequel, and yet here we are, saddled with this abomination that's actually worse than the original. Little returns as the surviving female character from the first film, now institutionalised following those events, and still being pursued by a gang of assassins for no apparent reason.

Along with other patients, she masterminds an escape before the shock treatment is administered and they all forget what they're running from - up and down florescent lit hallways with panda eye makeup, using any implement available to defend themselves against another gang of armed thugs.

Like the first film (which is heavily sampled to pad out this nonsense) there's a misguided attempt at creating some sort of deep allegory, no plot nor adjacent storyline, just a mindless killing spree without explanation nor substance. How this film got made is a bigger mystery though, it's barely an outline of hide & seek in a series of long corridors where Little encounters her pursuers, incurs a few scratches then routinely dispatches the assailants in a virtual repeat of the first flop, just a different setting.
