This sequel clearly fits into the mold of exaggerated prosthetics-laden contemporaries like Beetlejuice and Dick Tracy...and brings plenty to the table as the kind of offbeat horror comedy that they just don’t make anymore.

One has to admire the film's cheerful commitment to being itself.

Another installment from Henenlotter that fails to competently tell a story.

Fans know exactly what they're in for. But make sure you see the Part 1 first ... it's a whole lot better.

What the heck? That's were their taking the series! Well, talk about a missed opportunity. Instead of some creepy sequel with more murder down by the deformed brother we get a refuge house full of people with non realistic mutation-deformitys. I mean, who has teeth that are bewigged then your face, also one of them has the face of a frog. How does that happen? Did this persons mom mate with a frog? The other ones are horrible. I could just go on, on how unrealistic these characters are. Who thought this would be a good sequel. Not to mention the kills were boring and repetitive. The deformed brother jumps on the victims face, the victims stumbles around until their dead. Something that was good is that it started were the last one ended, and it was entertaining. Something I wanted to mention was the cool "The Brain that wouldn't die" reference in the newspaper office. So all in all this is an insult to horror movies.
