Summary: Herchell is BACK!
Review: Lemme put it this way: if you're sick of Scream and Scream-like poser flicks, and want a horror comedy that both pokes fun at the genre, but also follows its rules - BY ALL MEANS CHECK THIS OUT!

BUT...if you're squeamish, or prudish - this is not for you.

Herchell Gordon Lewis made himself famous by creating the gory slasher flick, and by perfecting junk mail. He comes back with a vengance, making up for lost time in this flick (the last film he made was in 1970)

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: An H.G. Lewis movie......really goofy and very gory
Review: Let me start off by saying if you haven't seen (or don't like) Herschell Gordon Lewis movies you may be a little impatient during "Blood Feast 2". Sure, it's a new movie, but this film could've been made right after 1972's 'Gore-Gore Girls' and fit in just fine. What I mean is, Lewis hasn't changed a bit, and I love him for it. Extreme gore is the raison d'etre and there's plenty of it. Many frames are just close-ups of bloody organs being fondled by a pair of hands, but there are some excellent FX as well. Like the original 'Blood Feast' there's no real plot to speak of, it's actually almost a remake. The grandson of Fuad Ramses opens a restaurant in the same town where the original murders took place, and immediately begins slaughtering women for another feast to honor a goddess. Meanwhile, a dumb cop investigates. There's more intentional humour in this one, and the endless jokes concerning the lead cop's overeating partner get tiresome. Nevertheless, I'm a huge fan and it's great to see a new film from a legendary director.

Summary: Gooey, gory fun
Review: Splatter fans will have much to enjoy in the return of the "Godfather of Gore," H. Gordon Lewis to filmmaking. "Blood Feast 2: All you can eat" is not a sequel to his infamous 1963 classic, "Blood Feast," but rather a re-make. This is a movie that couples lots of blood and guts with a wink and a nudge. "Blood Feast 2" needs to be seen with a rowdy crowd of friends.

The plot is silly and the acting is cheesy, but it's all done with tongue in cheek (or ripped out). A quick summary: Fuad Ramses III (played to perfection by J.P. Delahoussaye), grandson to the Ramses of the first film, has returned to town to resume the catering duties of his grandfather. He's actually a slave to a goddess named Ishtar (not the movie), housed in a statute, commanded to dismember as many people as he can for his bloody buffet.

Hot on his trail are two bumbling cops, Detective Myers (Marc McLachln), whose weak stomach gets the best of him at crime scenes; and his partner, Detective Loomis (John McConnell), who eats just about anything that comes in reach of his fingers. Loomis is a big fan of the dishes Ramses offers up to him, like his delicious "ladyfinger" sandwiches.

It's all good fun. The script is silly and the jokes come as fast as the blood and guts. Oh, and the nudity. Lots of nudity. The gore is cheesy and well done, and there's plenty of it. There's little point in describing the technical details of the DVD set; this is one of those films that was not produced as a centerpiece to an expensive home-theater system, as you talk about anamorphic widescreen with DTS 5.1 sound. You just pop it in and have fun.

Summary: This horror flick is HORRORible
Review: Think the title of this review is bad? Wait until you see this movie. The corniest, lamest jokes known to man. A poorly dubbed soundtrack by Southern Culture on the Skids (which totally doesnt fit). Put it to you this way, I bought this moview about a year ago. I got up to the lingerie party scene, and had to shut it off because it was so ridiculous. It is not a seriously gore flick like the original. Its a spoof. I almost feel sorry and embarrased for HGL

Summary: A sequel 40 years in the making!
Review: Yes, this sequel is 40 years in the making and has been talked about probablly more than any other sequel in horror history over the past few years. Jackie Morgan succeeds where others have failed, not only coaxing the over seventy year- old "Godfather of Gore" Herschell Gordon Lewis back into the director's chair but also bringing back David Friedman, producer of the original. The crown jewel of this cult film follower's wet dream is the participation of infamous cult director John Waters in his cameo apperance as a minister, of all things! The plot is inconsequential because what everyone is interested in seeing is the blood and guts style stomach churners that Lewis is famous for and he definately does not disappoint. Add some extremely campy dark humor to the mix and you have all the makings of a cult masterpiece! A must see for gorehounds or fans of HGL!

Summary: Better than expected sequel....40 years later!
Review: You've never seen acting this bad? Have you seen the original BLOOD FEAST????!!!

This was far better than I was expecting. It is a bit overlong at 100 minutes, but fans of the original will want to check this out. John Waters has a funny bit as a priest!

This works better than other recent belated sequels such as COPRSE GRINDERS 2 or MARK OF THE ASTRO ZOMBIES, which were shot on tape. BLOOD FEAST 2 is film all the way!
