Boogeyman 2 (2007)

There are so many movies that feature the boogeyman, and there are several with Boogeyman as the title. There are even duplicates of Boogeyman 2, and Boogeyman 3. How to keep track of all if them? This is not the video nastie titled Boogeyman II or Revenge of the Boogeyman as an alternate title. This is the "hot young stars of the WB" version.

It stars Danielle Savre of such shows as "Grounded for Life" and "Summerland." She did her first real movie the same time as this where she was "Teenage Girl #2." She did a good job here and I was really impressed with her potential in the genre.

The other characters come from such shows as "South of Nowhere," "State of Grace," "American Dragon: Jake Long", or "Xena: Warrior Princess" I only mention all these shows as I have not seen one of them. This was a characterless movie with the exception of Tobin Bell, who did this in between Saw II and IV. His character played a small, but important role, and he did a good job.

The movie's rating is based upon the action. The use of fears to torture is reminiscent of 1984, and worked effectively. I really was watching for what came next and overlooked many of the flaws the movie had as they really didn't detract from the action. I was especially taken with the ending. Good job there.

Worth seeing even if these "stars" are unfamiliar.

Fmovies: This movie is nothing like the first and everyone knows that a good thing.

They did what they need to do after the failure of Boogeyman in 2005!

The story is about a young Woman named Laura Porter with a life-long phobia of a supernatural boogeyman, in this case a demon that lives in her closet and springs out at night to attack her.

Trying to face up to her terror and get some help, she voluntarily checks herself into a mental health facility under the care of Dr.

Jessica Ryan (Renée O'Connor) with the hope of conquering her overwhelming fears.

Then she soon find out that everyone in the a mental health facility as see the bogeyman! She want to talk to them, they don't want to talk about it, they are all acting little strange as they are afraid of the boogeyman.

Soon they are being killed off one by one by the boogeyman

The deaths scene is this movie are really creative also they are a bit like Saw deaths scene.

They have added some Nudity scene, here and there wss Some really good Twist and Turns in this movie,

Acting was really good for a sequel! This movie a HUGE improvement of first boogeyman man movie! I give this movie 7/10

All those who wanted more of the first movie are weird!!! I'm glad they did a new take on Boogeyman, it kicked ass,creepy,gory great effects............ pretty predictable twist but hey, there's only so many ways a horror can end right? The acting was good, as were the effects, cool imagination on the kill scenes, I even enjoyed the ending which can let down most halfway decent movies. If all sequels were as good as this, I'd never bother with the first movies! This flick even had my horror freak of a wife hiding behind her hands at one point!! I recommend this movie to anyone that wants a good old gore infested creep show!!!!!

The wonderful thing I love about S2DVD sequels of craptacular movies is that you are always so surprised. Wheather it be for the good in which its unintentionally laughable or the other good in which its actually good and your not sure why this film ended up here or the bad in which you just shut it off. Well I must say I found Boogeyman 2 plesantly surprising. Although the first one was not a good movie at all I have to admit that it pretty much scared the crap out of me. So although I can't really recommend that film because most of those scares were due to sound FX I have to say i was a little siked going into this film. one 'o'clock in the a.m. just me and my boy watching with the lights off. And I must say it was pretty darn good. This time around it tells the story of two young kids who see there parents murdered in a hugely grotesque fashion. The brother overcomes his fear of the dark ten years later and leaves the lil sis in a mental institution where all the inmates start dying in relaly brutal ways depending on what there fears are. I won't give anything away but some gimmicks include, roaches, maggots, acid and just crazy buckets of goo. This film is so successful in its execution because it acknowledges its plot and dives headfirst into it. It's gory as hell and offers up everything and hungry horror fan could hope for. There are crazy ass death sequences, gore by the gallon, some T&A plus you get to watch the kid from 7th heaven smoke a joint. And it's actually pretty scary and has...wait for it....wait for it...A pretty good screenplay although it's slightly predictable the performances are pretty good and the twists are quite effective. So conclusion equals crazy gore, lots of scares, hot guys, kick ass heroine, pretty good plot. Kick ass sequel. I can see why it wasn't released in theatres as it would have been trimmed down and not nearly as effective and also because it lacks the professionalism in it's look that even most the bad horror flicks have. But what it lacks for in professionalism it makes up for in sheer spunk. This movie is so friggin fun!

***.5/5

I guess that the producers really had learned their lesson with part 1, the use of CGI was a complete letdown in part 1 but here we have a real boogeyman. It is even so that the boogeyman is more a real killer which gives us the fact that we are in the era of the slashers. The start of the movie learns us that two children witness the killing of both parents. The boy was already afraid and guessed that it was the boogeyman due the fact that the killer was never captured. For that reason they watched the children closely in psychiatry. Next stop, 10 years later. The boy tells his sister that he has to go. His sister is back in therapy but suddenly one after one people in her neighborhood get killed. She suspect the boogeyman is back in business. Once the killings start it's old school slasher style. I have seen the 93 minutes version in stead of the European version and I can say that the unrated version isn't afraid by showing the killings. It's mostly done in a bloody way or sometimes even in a gory way. The fact that the effects used are without CGI makes it all worth watching. It is also funny to see Tobin Bell as Dr Mitchell. I guess the director made an ode to SAW by putting in a device to rip open a chest. Anyway, Bell is excellent as all others who are really believable. You can guess easily who's the killer but the plot change gives it all worth watching. And for the ones wandering if all elements are in it to say it's a slasher, yes, Chrissy Griffith does show her milky ways in close up a few times. Sadly, part 3 was back to the imagination of the boogeyman in CGI, but the red stuff made it second best.

I was actually surprised at how much fun I had watching this flick. Some of these direct to DVD time killers are better than what's being thrown at us in the theaters. I'm still struggling with trying to watch the first bore-fest but this little gem got me hooked right away. This is a straight up slasher with some supernatural flavor used more as a decoy than for major thrills. If you like these films then get yourself a copy and you will definitely enjoy yourself. They spent less money this time but the addition of Tobin Bell (Today's Vincent Price) is perfect. I recommend this one for fans of the slasher genre, Mr. Bell, and cheesy little DVD. Check Tobin out in Buried Alive also.
