Just when you thought it was to play in the woods in a dark night!
Trevor Moorhouse is back once again, to do what he dose best-
Slice and Dice the heck out of a couple of stupid teenagers.
The movie is set 5 years after the first film, whitch was not all that good. The camp`s new owner try`s to re-open the place, along with a group of horney teenagers. Things start to go well, until the gang decide to play a little game of bloody murder, and thats when the mayham starts-
One bey one, the teenagers are stalked and killed by the evil Trevor Moorhouse!

Some of the great things about this movie is that it tries not to take it self seriously. I mean, look at the bad guy on the cover.
This movie also has some of the coolest death scenes since the original Friday the 13th!
The story line in un-original, of course, because it is very hard now a day`s to make an original horror film-
That dosent matter thow. Mainly because it`s got everything that
a 80`s style slasher film needs-Strong graphic violence, Strong sexual content, and language!
What`s even better, the girl`s are all babes in this film (including B-Scream Queen Tiffany Shepis!)

Overal, the best straigt to video slasher film to come out for a long time.

After the first "Bloody Murder" film, which totally blew, "Bloody Murder 2: Closing Camp" is quite a fun movie to watch. However, the killer, Trevor Moorehouse, doesn't look anything like he does on the cover, now he wears overalls, a black shirt, gardening gloves, a black full-overhead stocking cap, and a face mask that, instead of Jason, looks like Michael Myers. Sucks, huh? I do think the other look fits Moorehouse better, because it's more wicked and evil, but this one is good, too.

This features much more of Trever Moorehouse than the first one did, and this time it's the REAL Trevor Moorehouse, not some counselor pretending to be him. And guess what? He does NOT have a chainsaw for a left hand. Sure, he uses a chainsaw, but it's not his left hand. He's got both his hands, and he even uses a machete once or twice in this picture.

The acting was pretty horrible, and some of the effects were cheesy, such as the death of Trevor's father, and also Elvis' death. But, overall, Bloody Murder 2 had an okay plot.

"Bloody Murder 2" definitely belongs in my collection, see if it's the same for you.

I gotta say this one was an improvement. The first one was the slasher movie without the slashing. I mean, oddly, no gore, very little profanity, and no nudity, all of this overshadowed by a VERY Scooby Dooish plotline. But, it did involve a hockey mask, a summer camp, and some girls, so I liked it okay. In this movie, however, we see a return to time-honored traditions, and I found them encouraging. Essential elements are thrown into the mix.

The Plus Column:
a. You get to see the camp bullies (two sissies that looked like rejects from the bad karate kids in Karate Kid) turned into spare parts. Always cool. Subsection #1: Most of the people you dislike the most get bumped off at a reasonably fast rate, with only a couple of exceptions.

b. They actually explain the whole ambiguous Trever Moorehouse thing, which they skipped in the first one, although, unfortunately, the origin isn't very original.

c. Many of the murders happened at night, under the proper atmosphere, unlike the first one where almost everyone got semi-slashed in broad daylight.

d. Chicks, baby, chicks! Oh yeah, that's what I'm talking about. The first one had some pretty girls, but these chicks are much hotter. As a matter of fact, the whole thing centers around a nymphish blonde, honey-skinned and long-legged, ooh yeah, very distracting, which is cool because she takes your mind off of the lower points of the film.

The Con Column:
a. The killer had no theme at all. He wore overalls over a hooded sweatshirt, and a mask like the Tooth Fairy in Darkness Falls. No trademark weapons. I mean, I know in the first one they ripped both the Main Man Jason Vorhees and Leatherface with the hockey mask and chainsaw, but it was still better than what you have this time around. Vorhees wouldn't even spit in this guy's direction. Madman Marz, I hate to say, looked cooler.

b. The same Scooby Doo storyline. When the killer is revealed at the end, I know he was chomping his teeth to say, "Those meddling kids." But the good thing is, instead of Fred, Daphne, Velma, Scooby and Shaggy, you just kinda have a blonde Daphne.

c. The head camp guy, owner, whatever he was. Uuggh. He made Patrick from the first movie look like Bruce Willis from Last Man Standing. I can't see how ANY parent would send their kid to this guy for the summer.

All and all, I'd say this movie is worth the effort, especially if you saw the first one. I didn't rent it, I bought it, and it was pretty well worth the money.

Okay, the heroine in this movie is completely likeable; and that makes you want to see her make it out okay. WATCH OUT however for the chunky brown haired girl that's stealing her boyfriend. She has nude scenes and a shower one that especially will make every guy in the room turn away in nauseaousness. You must fast forward through this and not look. Trust me.
Anyways, Trevor turns out to be a pretty good guy after all. It's fun seeing the bad people get killed off. If you like these kind of movies, it's a good way to pass the time.

Well, if you have seen part one and hated it. Check this one out. I think even the directors thought part one was pretty bad. This one has almost the same storyline, but the acting is alot better (still not Emmy quality, by far) the gore is pretty up there (the opening killing scene was pretty gorey), lotts of blood, some full nudity, and the killer looks a tad bit more intimidating.
On this one they actually tell you why Trevor is killing, who he is, etc. Part one had no indications who this guy was and why he was there... That for me took alot out of the movie.

If you are a fan of slasher films, even if they are cheesey.. then watch this.

I just saw this movie for the first time and it wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. Let me just say that Katy Woodruff is HOT!!! ...

You can barely create a new concept in movies today that make people take notice. Horror movies always borrow an idea from a classic film like Friday the 13th or Halloween and try to make it in there own way. Think of it as a tribute to films they love. It barely works without fans getting there opinions in about how the movie was a bad rip off and no one should watch these films. Granted for every one straight to dvd horror film ive seen, ive seen about twenty that suck. Also, the cast of teens always seems to be the same stale characters you've seen in every other horror film. I remember seeing Bloody Murder and thinking it was a complete rip off of Friday the 13th, but I enjoyed the film and seperated the two. I knew of this sequel but never watched it until recently. Before the movie starts you get a pretty cool montage of what happens in the film and the extras had the Nightmare on Elm Street like opition of Jump to a death scene. The movie is pretty good. I heard a reviewer complain because the death scenes have all been done before. Well what you expect? Mostly every death sceniro has been done before. I couldnt tell who the killer was and that was refreshing. All in all, get this film if you appericate horror films. Dont think of it as a rip off but a tribute.

I must say even though this movie isn't original at all, it's still a pretty entertaining movie that doesn't drag. Good kills, especially the shower kill. This movie keeps you watching, but it has ALL the cliches of all slasher films. The (...) girl, the two guys 'challenging' each other, the 'huh huh i scared you' thing. Still a fairly good movie tho

The first "Bloody Murder" movie was a pretty routine "Friday the 13th" retread. It wasn't that it was bad; it just lacked any real originality. "Bloody Murder 2" on the other hand, is a well crafted little horror film. The pacing is a big improvement over the first, which tended to drag along. This is a credit to the director(replacing original "Bloody Murder" director Ralph Portillo).
Overall, it seems that a lot of effort was put into making this a quality horror film that can stand alone rather than just a by-the-numbers sequel. Don't be put off by the derivative cover art. "Bloody Murder 2" is a solid chiller with enough plot twists to keep it fresh.

Not too long ago, my friend rented a pile of horror movies she randomly picked out at the video store, and this was the first one that caught my attention. Just from the cover, it looked like an extremly cheap and typical horror film, but I wasn't just ready to judge it. We put it in the DVD player and started to watch it.
At the beginning, I was thinking how cheesy it was. And I have to admit, the first REAL killing scene (right after they start playing their little game of Bloody Murder, some kind of hind-and-go-seek in the woods thing) was a bit laughable.
Also, my friend and I both agreed that the killer looks in no way scary. He/She looks like a gardener (blue overalls, gloves, hiking boots) with a hockey mask on. Don't be deceived by the cover of the movie; the killer never even uses a hook in the actual film nor wears a red shirt.
Anyhow, as I watched more of the movie, I realized how un-typical it was becoming because there were so many suspects as to who the killer could be. And at the climax, there is an extremly large plot twist which makes this movie good.
However, one major thing that brings my rating of the movie down to three stars is the often fake acting in the film.
Nevertheless, the movie was pretty enjoyable, and I recomend it to those of you who enjoy the nature of cheap"er" horror films and need something to watch on a weekend at night.
