As I write this review, every other review posted immediately mentions and compares this film to its predecessor, which was nrilliant. I'm as impressed with David Lee Smith in this film as I was in the first, he appears not to have aged. The acting by the students is great. They are very knowledgeable and arent afraid to jump right in and pursue professor Oldman, each for their own reason, refusing to take no for an answer. The script is clear and sharp and delivered well by the characters, each of which I identified with. Again, spot on acting. I especially enjoyed Sterling Knights portrayed of and performance as a religious zealot who absolutely refuses to give up his faith. The Church has terrorized and controlled it's victims for so long and many, many have died under it's oppression. Thankfully though, not John Oldman. The film was 98 minutes and delivered it's message perfectly with a solid ending. Just watch the film as it's own film. Nothing can equal the original. Highly recommended.

Lords of Chaos
(2018)
A brilliant film...
4 July 2019
I find two things interesting...1) the sheer volume of material available precludes me from knowing about most of the astounding films that currently exist..2) the randomness with which I encounter these and am grateful to those who create such beauty. I'm born in Colorado and grew up with black, speed and thrash metal. Not so much Mayhem or Burzum, their vocals didn't interest me. I was more Venom, Mercyful Fate and Slayer. But as a fan this was the perfect movie for me. Its well crafted, witty, humorous and extremely brutal. The violence is gruesome, which I enjoy, and the small amount of music is great. This is a film for those who enjoy things that are black. Highly recommended.
