¿Sabías que...?
- CuriosidadesBrigette Nielsen was cast after she met director Jim Wynorski at a party. At the party, the two of them played a round of pool together with a wager: if Nielsen won, Jim would "put on a maid's outfit and clean her house" but if Wynorski won, Nielsen would work on the film for one day.
- PifiasWhen Lawlor is being abducted by the ghost Grubeck, it is very obvious that a person in a black ski mask and black clothes is driving the car.

Reseña destacada
Better Than the Original At Least
976-EVIL II (1991)
* 1/2 (out of 4)
This direct-to-video sequel picks up shortly after the original film as the Dean of a local school has been arrested for murder. It turns out that he got involved in the notorious hotline and soon he was possessed and doing the Devil's work. Before long a woman (Debbie James) is trying to destroy him and the evil powers that he possesses.
I wasn't much of a fan of the original movie and this sequel is certainly far from being "good" itself but at the same time there's no question that it makes for a more entertaining movie. If you're familiar with the work of Jim Wynorski then you already know that he's a master at making low-budget movies and throwing enough in them to make them worth sitting through.
976-EVIL II has a storyline that is pretty much a copy of the original, although this one here adds an even more comic spin to it. The highlight of the film are its use of the public domain films NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD and IT'S A WONDERFUL LIFE. Clips from both of those films are shown here and then we get some funny jokes about them and a re-enactment, which is downright funny and I must say it was quite creative.
I'd also argue that Wynorski knows what the people renting this film would have wanted and that's nudity and gore. It takes one-minute for us to reach our first nude sequence and about four more for the first gore scene. The original film seemed to have director Robert Englund not knowing what horror fans would want but that's not the case here. I thought James was fun in her role and I thought Rene Assa was a real benefit as well.
With all of that said, the film is still pretty hard to sit through as there's plenty of action and exploitation but none of the characters are overly interesting and I'd argue that there's really nothing here that keeps you glued into the story. If you're a fan of these types of "B" movies then you might want to check it out but others should probably stay clear.
