Review:
A very good movie, especially considering it is a sequel. And even considering not being allowed to use any footage from the first film!!

This movie is very, very good. It isn't exacly as good as the first, but what movie ever is?

It is funny at times, and scary at times, and I love the scenes where Ash is going insane, and when he is attacked by his severed hand.

But it deserves:
