User Reviews

Better than the original but not by much

When they get stranded in the woods, a group of girls captured by the infamous Bunnyman and his partner try to escape before they're killed and turned into the food at their roadside market.

This ended up being better than the original effort in the series but that's not really saying much. The fact that the whole film tends to rely on the fact that the titular character itself is scary to drive all the shocks is perhaps the biggest problem with this as it really has almost no true scares in this one at all while trying to impart the fact that the killer itself deserves all the scares tends to really wear thin quite early. The scenes of it appearing behind unsuspecting victims before the death-blow is quite stupid and ends up being quite lame as well when its the only form of attack throughout while also not really making the killer all that scary and really just drives the whole scare factor of the film down even further. The way he's treated as the iconic hero at the end of the picture for no purpose other than making him appear to be so is the last, near-irredeemable flaw about the killer in this one because of the way he's handled and makes the attack at turning him into some kind of mythic hero of the day instead of letting it come about naturally is where this one fails the most spectacularly as the attempts at doing this undermine the efforts of the whole film simply to have this nonthreatening and unscary killer emerge as the victorious party simply for that sake and really undoes so much else the film does right in here. The kills are certainly bloody enough and deliver some pretty nasty scenes, as the camping party assault, the hiking group and the different thwarted escape attempts that met with the requisite chainsaw slashing that generates the most fun throughout with their messy attitude, unflinching portrayal to violence and general high-quality execution of the scene. As well, the fact that this one eschews the torture-film route despite holding people captive and instead relying on their escape attempts only to get killed in the process does make for a slightly better experience which does really work quite well here in making this become a more entertaining effort than the original but not by much.

Rated R: Extreme Graphic Language, Extreme Graphic Violence, Nudity and children-in-jeopardy.
