Disgraceful To The First, 2 June 2008

Dear god, why do people make this crap!Are these filmmakers trying to kill us? First of all, let me get out the bad stuff(Which is basically everything about the film)

-The acting was horrendous.The worst you could possibly get in a film.

-The special effects were complete sh*t.Everything that had to deal with any special effects whatsoever was horrible.

-The walkers were also disappointing, and they weren't cool or edgy at all, nor were they new or awesome in anyway.

-The constant, unnecessary, background music got on my last nerve.It didn't go 2 minutes without playing some sort of music!!!

-The twist at the end was stupid and predictable.

There was nothing good about this film, except for the fact that it made me smile when the end credits were showing, because the horror of watching this movie was finally over.

If you're a big fan of the first, I beg of you to NOT WATCH THIS FILM. If you don't, you "WILL" be doing yourself a TREMENDOUS deed.
