Fun Stuff

Trivia:
According to James Newman and Lee Harry, the choice of who to play Ricky Caldwell came down to Eric Freeman and another actor. The other actor has more experience and was a better actor overall, but they liked Eric's looks better so they chose him for the role. more
Goofs:
Factual errors: When Ricky electrocutes Chip, his hand is still clenching Chip's throat. Since he has no insulated gloves on, he should've been fried as well. more
Quotes:
Jennifer Statson: I hate you Ricky! I hate you!
Ricky Caldwell: Punish!
Jennifer Statson: [gulps] Uh-oh.

A joy if you like bad horror, 31 January 2005
4/10
Author: jordan_tyrell from Canada

The first thing anyone will admit when mentioning this movie is that it is terrible. It is even admitted in the Anchor Bay DVD release that it was mostly edited from the original to extend the video shelf-life of the first film, which was also less than Citizen Kane. The new material is acted with less talent than a grade school play, and those same grade school children could have written the script were it not for the not so child-like subject. The movie is merely an attempt to capitalize on gore, nudity, and controversy. As such, if you haven't seen the original in a while, this is a decent horror film. The slasher genre makes no claims to being Oscar worthy, so don't expect it to be and you'll be fine.If you go into this movie wanting to watch a badly made gore-fest you won't be disappointed. I find the delivery of the line "Garbage Day" makes this film one of my horror favorites despite the fact I rate it 4/10.
