Hatchet 2 (2010)

Hatchet 2 : Hold on to All of your Pieces



Storyline :

Marybeth escapes the clutches of the deformed, swamp-dwelling iconic killer Victor Crowley. After learning the truth about her family's connection to the hatchet-wielding madman, Marybeth returns to the Louisiana swamps along with an army of hunters to recover the bodies of her family and exact the bloodiest revenge against the bayou butcher.

This sequel picks up right at the end of the 2006 with Marybeth (now played by Danielle Harris) escaping the swamp. She goes to Rev. Zombie (Tony Todd) who informs her that her father, uncle and another man were the ones who originally murdered Victor Crowley (Kane Hodder), the maniac in the swamp who just killed all her friends.

Marybeth and Zombie gather up a group of hunters and head back to the swamp so that they can kill the hatchet-faced madman once and for all. HATCHET was a film that pretty much came out of nowhere and became a cult favorite very quickly. I enjoyed the film a lot and while this sequel isn't quite as good there's still plenty to enjoy. I'll admit right off the top that this is a fairly good throwback to the 80s slasher craze as we got the same type of killer and of course the different variety of characters. We have the voodoo priest, the dumb rednecks and of course a few sluts thrown in for some nudity. The screenplay doesn't take anything too serious and the story, while unoriginal, at least offers up some decent kill scenes. Speaking of the kill scenes, I must say that a lot of creativity went into them and old school horror fans are going to be happy to know that the majority of effects are real and not just some CGI crap. One of the most memorable scenes has a guy getting the back of his head sandblasted and there's another classic scene with a chainsaw that I won't ruin.

The final shots of the movie, again, I won't ruin them, is pure mayhem and I must admit that it was rather priceless and I'm sure fans will be talking about it for years into the future. Most horror fans will always remember Harris from HALLOWEEN 4 and 5 but she turns in a pretty good performance here. Her character has a little more drama than just someone standing around waiting to scream and I think the actress handled the part well. Todd is always delightful in any movie so it's good seeing him with a pretty big part.

Hodder not only serves as the large killer but he also gets to play the mutant's father in a flashback sequence. Tom Holland, director of films like FRIGHT NIGHT, THINNER and CHILD'S PLAY also appears here. The rest of the supporting cast fill their parts nicely but none of them stick out too much. Being a real throwback means we get some nudity, which comes in a couple very funny ways with a video camera but we also get a classic sex scene like none that I've ever seen.

There are several attempts at comedy that fail in the film but this sex scene works very well. I think there are a few too many dry spots in the movie but overall the film delivers enough of what fans are going to be wanting.

7/10
