Gore galore

Rating: Null/10 (27 February 2004)

Ohmigod! I always thought that "FD1" and "House on haunted hill '99" were the best INNOVATIVE outcomes of the "post-Scream" era in splatter genre. I'm not taking (the ingenious) "Scream 2", (the good-cardboard-copy-of-'Scream') "I know...", (the good parody) "I still know..." and (the good funeral episode) "H20" into account, since they are not that innovative, just good in their own "just going through the numbers" - madman on the loose category. So, after "FD1" I thought "FD2" was a serious mistake. It's like throwing dirt on the little bright spot that shines out of the cess pool representing the state of current splatter, almost buried under titles such as "Halloween 8", "Wrong turn" and "Urban Legend 2" -need I go on? All right, all right, we are seeing a little light at the end of the tunnel with such titles as "JvsF" and "Cabin Fever"... Well, back to "FD2", I was glad to be wrong! 'Coz here we have it, dear gorehounds, without a doubt the bloodiest and most twisted horror comedy of the year! You REALLY get for what you are paying for in here! Good old in-your-face gore and blood spurts! Hilarious stuff. Also the actors aren't half bad and the plot don't stink. I'm giving serious thought of actually purchasing this gem on DVD.
