Just when I thought it couldn’t get any worse, they made another Hatchet movie. Hatchet II is twice as bad and twice as pointless, a meaningless exercise in ridiculous cinema, like an alien experiment on something those creatures didn’t understand. Actually, this movie makes the first in the series seem spectacular by comparison, if that can be believed. It’s that bad, that unnecessary, and that plain stupid. Bleck.
Immediately following the events of the first film, not many people survived that fateful tour of the swamps, and that poor deformed child is all grown up & looking for payback. Returning to the killzone is so stupid it might be criminal, but there they go, back into the arms of the giant murderer, and few will survive his wrath. What he wants may become clear, but how to kill him perhaps never will.
Oh my god, this one was even worse, and I’m not really sure how they were able to accomplish that. More gore, more sex, more …nothing, somehow. It was a waste of film and of time, like a joke that no one will understand until years later we finally get how some of us poor souls were duped into watching an absolute nightmare. Stay away, stay far away.
