This movie kills children! And it's awesome!! Personally, I think more kids should be brutally killed by crazed psycho demon killers. So, if you like that sort of horror you will like this. There is, of course, some very bad acting and other hallmarks of B horror, but there are also a slew of horror scene people in this too. I cannot stress enough that this movie requires you to like horror as your favorite genre and enjoy watching B horror movies for fun if you are to enjoy this or the first Barn movie. As far as horror movie sequels go, there are absolutely more nonsensical horror movie sequels out there.

At first I was like, "what in the low budget attempt at horror" is this?! But as I got deeper into the movie, I was like "no, scratch that. THIS IS AWESOME!!!". It's just so, I don't know, nostalgic. It's brings back way too many good feels, it made me giddy with happiness, I didn't even care much about the "horror", I just honestly enjoyed it. It's like Are You Afraid of the Dark x Goosebumps x Night of the Crazies x Trick r Treat x Return of the Living Dead. It's just so freakin' fun! I didn't even have to watch the prequel to enjoy the movie. It pretty much can stand on its own. I am, however, gonna watch it now. This belongs to every Halloween Movie Marathon list. I can't believe it's a movie from 2022. Glad to know there are creators out there who could still produce great material.

I've never see the original,. So I don't have anything with which to compare this. You get enough of the backstory to know what's going on, though, so you can watch this as a standalone flick and still be good. This isn't winning any awards, but in current year, that's a positive. No agenda. No message. Just plain, good, clean fun. Well, not clean - there's a bit of nudity thrown in - so still fun :) Everybody looks way too old to be in college, but for the most part, they're decent enough actresses. The plot is about what you would expect from a B movie, and there is the required amount of "wrongness." One such example is when the pumpkin head guy - who has a flame going in his head - gets lighter fluid squirted on him and, predictably, it ignites. Later, though, that same guy gets sprayed with some flammable liquid and yet, even though he's still flaming, now the script requires a lighter to be thrown at him to get the liquid ignited. ¯\_(* *)_/¯ Anyway, it's a fun movie that you can watch without having to endure preaching or browbeating. Pop some popcorn, turn down the lights, sit back and just enjoy.
