Entertaining from beginning to end, it maintains the spirit of the franchise while establishing it's own seal with a fun cast

Clever and entertaining enough to recommend even to members of the 1%

The acting is good, and the firecracker script has some excellent ideas.

There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.

BOOM! LOVED IT! Saw it at the Fantasia Festival in Montreal. Directors Cundieff and Scott weave 4 stories with a wrap around. First, Keith David replaces Clarence Williams III. He BRINGS IT!! Totally believable as Mr. Simms.All of the stories were great, but I really enjoyed "Golly" and "Emmett Till". Taking a modern character and interweaving it with a historical character was very effective."Tales 2" is proof that a horror film can be more than guts and gore, it can have compelling storytelling. "Tales From The Hood 2" deserves to be seen and enjoyedKudos to the Producers and Directors for bringing back the franchise!

Just like the first film, the sequel is just as outrageous, campy, over the top, and weird. Also similar to the first film is the sociopolitical commentary that sadly still rings just as true in 2018 as it did in 1995. The Seance story (2nd story about a fake psychic) is by far the best. It was great character development, fantastic actors, and it takes its time to really tell a full story. The first ("Golly") and third (about Vampires and date rape) could have used a bit more development, but still go the message across.The third film (based on the true story of Emmett Till) has a completely different tone than the others- its much more serious, poignant, and could stand alone as a short film.If anything, it reminds you to check your privilege, look around you, and see life from a different perspective. It's also has some great actors- Keith David, Kendrick Brown, Bryan Batt, Creighton Thomas, just to name a few.

I came in with super low expectations and was ready to walk out during the opening credits. Insanely cheap and silly CGI with dancing skeletons (?!?!) guaranteed that this film won't even be enjoyable trash. I took a few deep breaths and told myself to give the two directors a chance (they were in the audience and stated how nervous they were to watch this in front of an audience for the first time) and boy did I regret it. Absolute garbage on all fronts with little to no redeeming value. The only horror I felt during this screening was imagining how uncomfortable the Q&A would be after the film. I shudder at the very thought.

Although the tale ''Sacrafice'' is very eye open on the unfortunate US history on civil rights & must of the tales are filled with laughters, I became sick & tired of the racially, sexism BS that was heavy to put onward a liberal hatred of victimhood. Enough of reverse political & please get back to art & genre!
