Plot: Curious kids open a barrel of green gas linked to a mysterious military experiment, and soon a tenebrous green cloud of fog is making its way through the creepy town cemetery. Knowing exactly where t...( read more read more... )his is headed is, of course, part of the fun in this tongue-in-cheek zombie sequel. Maybe it's not as fresh as its successful predecessor, but all of the key zombie ingredients are still well preserved in this second installment: ravenous "undead" in search of human brains, severed limbs with a life of their own, and lots and lots of shrieking! Taking a hackneyed premise that is a close retelling of part I, director Ken Wiederhorn (Freddy’s Nightmares, Shock Waves) rejuvenates the genre with sporadic genuine scares, lots of plain old silliness, and some literally eye-popping special effects. Followed up a few years later with the equally enjoyable Return of the Living Dead Part III, this is a fun franchise that reminds you of what '80s horror was all about: bad synth music, and perms. --Matt Wold

    See the first one was just cheesy fun, this one is just plain bad and the main characters are like 11 year old kids being chased by zombies with very poor makeup. Definitely disappointing!

    One of crapiest horror flick i've seen. The special effects were terrible and also got annoyed with the bad acting when paniking as zombies come to life. Also storyline wasn't that good.

    The first one was better. Using the same characters from the first only made it seem predictable in this cheesy sequel. But the Michael Jackson Zombie was hilarious to see! ;)

    only saw parts of it but it still looks good althought the 1st one still seems better( this one is kind of a ripooff of the 1st one because some of the same lines are use by the two same actors in different roles (ok it still was funny but) the unexplainable return of tar-man(only fans of the movie will understand me here))

    I didn't know if it was supposed to be a comedic spoof or a pitiful attemt at a real horror movie, either way this movie fails at both. cheesy special effects and some shitty editing makes this movie unbarable at times, but never the less it is some what entertaining...I guess

    Not as good as the first, but that would be impossible to do anyway. Still has the same goofy feel as the first one and some of the original cast, which pleased me.

    The two stars are only for the main stars from Return that haplessly appear in this movie. Don't do more than TIVO to watch it.

    A comedic follow-up to a really good horror flick? Who the Hell was smoking what when they came up with this?!

    Costumes was not as bad as part one, acting was also way better than part one. Love the '88 comedy on this one.

    Fun, but it was somewhat confusing as to whether or not they wanted to make it a kiddy movie. That drunkard doctor was also quite amusing.

    This movie was something I watched over and over as a kid. I used to scare the shit out of my sister pretending to be a zombie. I love it when the zombies are driving the car haha..

    Like it's predecessor, a steaming pile, but it's my steaming pile, so I'll enjoy it as I may, thanks. A guarenteed groundbreaker on a drinking party.

    More cornball with direct quotes from the first part. Funny with a Michael Jackson zombie... More brains!
