Six years later, despite some flaws in plotting and the choreography of the digital stuntmen, I still like this movie a whole lot better than anyone else on the planet, apparently. (8/10)

[do not, ever, read Harry Knowles' review of this film]
Ten years later, the flaws in plotting, choreography and SFX stand out more, but Snipes still kicks some ass. (7/10)
d. Stephen Norrington
Somehow -- maybe because of the villains, maybe because of the director's sensibility -- more mean-spirited than its predecessor. (7/10).
d. Renny Harlin
Given the censored kills and complete lack of nakedness, I suppose the only reason I like this '80s slasher so much is the setting and characters (Hollis, why did you have to die, man?). (7/10)
d. George Mihalka
Maybe not trying to be serious is the key to Corman actually making a good movie? (8/10)
d. Roger Corman
Mulholland Dr.'s main competition for title of Ultimate Stream of Consciousness Film That Really, Really Should Have Been a Television Show. (6/10)
d. Richard Kelly
Killing off the lecherous Michael J. Pollard so early in the movie was a huge mistake. (5/10)
d. Michael A. Simpson
It starting to get a bit boring once all of the girls who refused to wear shirts were killed off. (6/10)
d. Michael A. Simpson
I'm already aware that fascism is evil, so I didn't really need the 112 minutes of shit-eating as a lesson on that subject. (4/10)
d. Pier Paolo Pasolini
Disrespectful of the brilliant original, completely lacking any style of its own, responsible for jump-starting both the horror remake and torture porn cycle were currently mired in: all sins I cannot forgive. (3/10)
d. Marcus Nispel
[grist for Google: creatively bankrupt]
Though the super-slo-mo shots of bad guys getting sprayed with pink water / shotgun blasts were beautiful in their own way, they were not the hardcore revenge I was hoping the climax of the film would serve. (6/10)
d. Bo Arne Vibenius
I dig the blue collar characters, the filthy setting, the subbasements under subbasements and, naturally, Brad Dourif as the exterminator. (7/10)
d. Ralph S. Singleton
I'm kind of used to watching these "'60s teens gone wild" movies with wise-cracking robots at the bottom of the screen; the modern day wraparound scenes with impossibly untalented and unlikable actors were a poor substitute. (4/10)
d. Harvey Berman & David Wolfe
