Nekromantik 2 (1991)
3/10
An inch better than the first movie...
1 January 2019
Well, first of all this sequel was actually the length of an average movie, whereas the first movie ran at about an hour only. So that at least works in favor of the movie...

Or so you would think. Alas, but no, that was not the case. Why? Well, because this movie was incredibly slow paced and with very little of any interest or any consequential worth, so it just felt like time stood almost still while a whole lot of nothing transpired on the screen.

I am rating "Nekromantik 2" 3 out of 10 stars, whereas I rated the prequel 2 out of 10. The reason for a slightly higher rating for this sequel was because they upped their game significantly in terms of production and effects. This actually felt like a movie, whereas the first one was more amateurish and like a home movie recorded on tape.

The storyline in "Nekromantik 2" was quite simple, and very similar to the storyline in the first movie. Just as shame that it was so pointless, because there was very little entertainment in the movie, truth be told.

Sure, "Nekromantik 2" also has some fairly gross and bizarre things in it, much like the first movie. It is also visual, but not on the same lewd level as the first movie. The sequel was a bit more refined - if one can use such a word about a movie such as this.

The acting in the movie was adequate, taking into consideration the kind of movie that you are watching. But don't go placing any wagers on this being phenomenal acting that will be remembered for years to come.

I watched "Nekromantik 2" solely because I just watched part one and I had both movies lined up. I decided to watch the sequel despite of being nowhere near impressed by or entertained by the first movie. So now I have seen both of these so-called cult movies, and will never return to watch them again.
