2.0 out of 5 stars A Sequel That Doesn't Live Up to the Original, August 1, 2002

This review is from: Understudy - Graveyard Shift II [VHS] (VHS Tape)

You could probably watch this movie a dozen times and still be unable to completely follow the story. For some reason the continuity and artistic merit that were present in the original "Graveyard Shift" are completely lost. The story is a bizarre tale of the return of Baisez, the vampire who was introduced and supposedly destroyed in the original movie. Baisez is doomed to walk the earth as a ghost-like being until he can find a body he can posses. Sounds simple enough but the story jumps all over the place, taking place on a movie set. The thread of continuity completely unravels through the course of the movie and by the end you are left completely unclear as to what exactly happened. The bizarre part is the movie is nonetheless interesting. I would only recommend it for diehard fans of the genre.

This review is from: Understudy - Graveyard Shift II [VHS] (VHS Tape)

The Understudy: Graveyard Shift 2 is a haunting study of lust, love, and how some people would trade their immortal soul for one shot of fame. Camilla Turner is a young aspiring actress who, while talented, seems to only be able to get bits parts in low budget horror movies. On the set of her first starring role(Blood Lovers, about a vampire pool player), She meets a mysterious, seductive young man named Bezzai, who tell her he can make her star...... for a price. Camilla manages to get Bezzai cast in the lead role, and from then on, she and the other cast and crew mem-bers start exhibiting strange behavior. and the events that take place behind the scenes begin to echo the plot of the movie they're shooting. When Matthew, Camilla's fiancee' and the film's editor slowly figures out Bezzai's true nature, then the race is on to save Camilla before it's too late A first rate cast, crew, and director, plot, and film within a film scenario makes this independent gem a cut a bove the average low budget horror film.
