Leave your thoughts about Friday the 13th Part 2.
| Combustible CelluloidJeffrey M. AndersonPerhaps the least interesting of all the Friday the 13th films, since it tries to be a "sequel" to the first film, referencing themes and storylines. |
| IGN MoviesEric GoldmanNo one will mistake this for Quality Cinema, and it's marred by a confusing, murky ending. But there are some good thrills along the way. |
| 7M PicturesKevin CarrNot as good as the original, but still pretty fun, it serves up more of the same and continued to be fresh enough before its many other sequels got too silly. |
| CinefantastiqueSteve BiodrowskiEven crude techniques, when properly employed, can be effective, in a lowest-common-denominator kind of way. |
| TheFilmFile.comDustin PutmanA solid first sequel and the truly chilling jump scare at the end gives the original's a run for its money. |
| Antagony & EcstasyTim BraytonAll things considered, it probably should have been a whole lot worse. |
| eFilmCritic.comScott WeinbergMore of the same. It all depends on your taste for carnage. |
| Slant MagazineJeremiah KippBy now, everyone knows what to expect from this kind of movie, but what’s surprising is how the low-budget rawness, cheap film stock bubbling over with grain, and washed-out lighting schemes give the film a kind of base in reality. |
| Reel Film ReviewsDavid Nusair...ultimately right in line with its passable yet far-from-memorable predecessor. |
| Juicy CerebellumAlex SandellThe last Friday the 13th film that makes an effort to scare its audience, rather than just going through the motions. |
