Preview: Hatchet II (2010)

Synopsis:

A sequel to 2006 slasher flick about a hatchet-wielding psycho in the Louisiana swamps.

• Poster: C+

Review:

It works for what it is, but a lack of richness or embellishment makes for an unmemorable finish.

• Trailer: C-

Review:

The jittery font doesn't make for a pleasing visual experience, not enough of the film is seen and the "critic" notices have no annotation indicating who said them, which suggests smaller, unknown critics or genre specialists. And since this low budget horror film didn't even make back its money at the box office, I'm a bit surprised there's a sequel, but not surprised they are playing down that information claiming it was actually popular.

Oscar Prospects:

None.

Release Date:

• October 1, 2010
