See No Evil 2 (2014, Sylvia & Jen Soska)

It's a bit surprising that they dragged their feet so much in coming up with a sequel to the 2006, WWE produced slasher flick, "See No Evil". I checked this one out cuz it was around and it felt like quite a while since I had seen a more current body-count flick.

Having not seen the first film since it's release, I wasn't totally up to speed on where it left off, but we find Jacob Goodnight (again, played by the naturally evil looking professional wrestler mongoloid, Kane...) being carted into a morgue after having been impaled on no less than a dozen impliments, according to the quick flashbacks. The lovely Danielle Harris plays one of the workers who is surprised by her friends, offering up a drunken birthday celebration during the lax graveyard shift hours. Suffice to say, Kane springs to life and starts wasting these idiotic 'killables' with a variety of deadly morgue tools...

There's nothing of any substance or real entertainment value to speak of, here. Way too much time is spent on the incredibly irritating characters' bickering and running around panicking. Also, the fact that the group of potential victims contains TWO actual morgue employees, yet they spend the majority of the movie trying to figure a way out of the hospital's seemingly endless maze of hallways was a bit confusing and ridiculous. Even with the power being cut, why is this so hard? The only redeeming aspect of this flick is Kane, who again plays a pretty good killer. Then again, he's 8-feet tall, 300lbs. and ass-ugly so I think demonic wrestler and psychotic, hulking killer are his inevitable strong suits. Unfortunately, the gore in this is scaled way down for some reason, making the kill scenes disappointingly weak and boring. In all, there's really nothing here that's worth a damn. Don't bother with "See No Evil 2".
