hyped garbage

Highly Overrated But Still Good

The storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.

The biggest problem with this movie is it’s a little better than you think it might be, which somehow makes it worse. As in, it takes itself a bit too seriously, which makes most of the movie feel kind of dull.

I'm an expert on vintage & modern horror movies or most of them!!! With that having said...I want to tell everyone here on IMDb that this horror movie tops the top 3 worst horror movies in history!!! I bought this movie on Amazon.Com simply because I thought this was the same version as on the VHS tape,WRONG!!!! Take my word for it don't waste your hard earned money!!! Go figure!!! Think about it!!! And I thought "Cheepshow 3" was bad, HUH!!! This movie buries "Creepshow 3"!!! I think what this director needs to do is release the original version of this film otherwise sooner or later he will go out of the business!!! Face It!!! Who wants to buy A lousy horror film!!!

As all before me has stated this movie- well its raining at the moment so I think I will sit outside and watch the grass grow-at least there is some point to that-whereas this movie bored me to tears. I kept loosing the plot and wondering how people could be killed off in a house and no one else notices until the end. Again as others have already pointed out by such dread means as an electric toothbrush and shaving cream. Unlike others I just found this VHS in a second hand shop and only paid $2 but still I could have bought a chocolate instead at least then I would have gained a little satisfaction.....This movie deserves to be placed straight into the rubbish bin.

Boogeyman II Redux (1983) was Ulli Lommel's re-editing of the first Boogeyman with new footage of himself as "the director" being interviewed about the murders that were committed in the first movie. Why was this done? Well, Ulli Lommel wanted to create his perfect vision of the movie, a cut of the film that he always wanted to do (and also to keep retaining the rights to Boogeyman). According to him as long as he uses the movie in some way he retains the rights to it in the North American market. He also gets to exorcise the faults of the sequel and recreate it as his own. If you haven't seen the first film then you'll enjoy it more than if you never watched the original.The "Redux" also features two "trailers" for future Boogeyman sequels (one is for the rarely seen Return of the Boogeyman and another is a hybrid of two of Lommel's other films "War Birds" and "U.F.O." The clip for Boogeyman 5 is pieces of those films edited together with a couple of scenes from The Boogeyman. Okay Mr. Lommel we get the joke already. Well whenever he releases those films outright or if he releases the long awaited Part four onto the rest of the world we'll never know. All I wish for is that he release his entire catalog on d.v.d. I will be one of the many that'll by his films because I actually enjoy his style of film making.Despite what people say, the spliced in footage doesn't look bad and Boogeyman II Redux is worth another look at. Keeping in mind with what Ulli Lommel wanted to create in the first place.Recommended for horror fans of those of Ulli Lommel.

Awful sequel to chiller with the story relying too heavily on flashback to tell a story that never develops fully into something coherent or interesting.
