One of the best horror sequels, that some consider superior to the first (love both but disagree). Reggie is the man
More action. More scares. More of everything that made the first one great. I want a quad barrel shotgun.
Don’t let a studio dictate how to make your sequel “better”
The evil ball-bearings are back... Brilliant!
If you like weird B horror, check it out. It's not quite as good as the first, though.
While not topping the original, it took what was great about it and added to it. It was gorier and more intense, a worthy sequel for sure.
Worth a watch around Halloween I suppose.
I was disapointed by the previous one. This, at least, is funny.
The original worked because of it’s mystery. Each sequel adds more to the mythos, bogging down narrative to bizarre & unnecessary heights.
I love this Classic! A sequel done right, it builds off the original so well.

A teenage boy and his friends face off against a mysterious grave robber, known only as the Tall Man, who employs a lethal arsenal of unearthly weapons.
Mike, after his release from a psychiatric hospital, teams up with his old pal Reggie to hunt down the Tall Man, who is at it again. A mysterious, beautiful girl has also become part of Mike's dreams, and they must find her before the Tall Man does.
The Tall Man, that imposing menace from Morningside Mortuary, is back and once again haunting the thoughts of the now-adult Mike and his friend, ex-Ice Cream vendor Reggie. The two continue their hunt for the mysterious figure and in his path of destruction encounter a variety of dangerous situations, friends and enemies.
Taking off immediately where the last one ended, Mike travels across dimensions and time, fleeing from the Tall Man while trying to find the origins of his enemy and what really happened the night that his brother died. Meanwhile, Reggie battles spheres and the undead in a quest to find Mike before the Tall Man can complete his transformation.
Brothers Mike and Jody join family friend Reggie to battle the Tall Man and his evil minions from another dimension, for the final time.
