just watch it!

Absolutely brilliant

After playing with our expectations, this turns out to be a very different sort of film.

If you like to be scared, if you like to laugh, and if you like to learn a thing or two at the movies, this absolutely cannot be missed.

What's the point? It's great to be a super fan, & if you wanna make short films, then do it, just don't bite off more than you can chew. The Krueger shorts were a good idea, and manageable, but Freddy vs Jason vs Michael Myers vs Leatherface featuring Pinhead? That's more than most Hollywood writers can chew. So why bother? If you can't do it right, why do it? At least when it comes to Indie filmmaking. I mean they could've all looked much worse, but Freddy's giant nose, Myers's mask sticking out all weird at the neck, and Leatherface's goblin mask w/giant chin? They were too distracting to ignore. 90%-All of Freddy's dialogue was god awful, and nothing like the character. They used the same trope twice in a row with Myers and Jason both dropping their famous weapon. And Leatherface...ahh it was all pretty bad. It was good for one of these weird Batman Dead End shorts, but overall it was pointless. Oh yeah, and there was ZerO Gore.

Most Fan-films are very bore and lacks creative control; however, Chris and his creative mind combine all of the best and most iconic legends of horror into one short. Let's start off with the story itself. This is a great continuation from the first part which, in my opinion should have been all one movie instead of two a part series. The story continues directly right where the first part ends. The idea of having Jason, Michael and Leatherface working as Pinheads drones is great since all other those icons have there own personality and adding Pinhead as the leader of hell is a brilliant idea in of itself. With the acting to all the icons, I find the Freddy character, should have talked less and gave more action to his character. With him being the only icon that has a mouth and can speak, he should have talked a little less. On to Pinhead (actor), in my option, should have darker vocals since he is like the devil in a character made for horror films. The Directing, staging and blocking are pretty good when it comes to this part; furthermore, in my option, the first part might have been better in staging and blocking when it comes to having multiple characters on screen. For the settings; however, are very unique. I love the idea when Freddy gets knocked into the characters locations are great to see. During the Friday the 13th settings, has the best setting out of all three of them since the heavy rain gives it an eerie atmosphere to work with. My less favorite has to be the Leatherface settings only because it looks to unrealistic and does not really look like a Texas landscape. Whereas Jason and Mikes settings can really be any place that looks like the Myers house or a camp really. All in All i gave this fan-film 7 out of 10 because of the acting, settings and comparison of part 1 to part 2. The concept and story are great but without believable settings, they do not work well, in my option.

For an early effort made at the start of his career in 2004, Chris R. Notarile managed to make an enjoyable, interesting and well made short film called "The Nightmare Ends on Halloween". The fact that it was shot on home video is further proof of how good it was and showed promise of the talented filmmaker that Notarile would become.The only drawback to the original film was that, at that time, a suitable pool of good actors wasn't available to Mr. Notarile.Fast forward seven years and the sequel "The Nightmare Ends on Halloween II" not only outshines, but buries the first film. The evidence is the fact that the ending of the original film has been completely re shot for Part II and then leads directly into the battle! Compare the two versions of this scene. It's obvious Part II is far superior! The first thing you notice is how professional everything is. Superior lighting, camera work, editing and direction. The story is less talk and all action from the start! Action fans will love the fight scenes and horror fans will appreciate Notarile's attention to detail both in characters and story.Regarding the acting - OMG what an improvement! Hector De La Rosa, Anthony Palmisano, Josh Rothman and Jerry Todisco don't even have dialogue, but they totally nail the essence of Jason, Michael and Leatherface. Kevin Lennon completely embodies Pinhead (with fantastic Pinhead voice by Notarile) and Roberto Lombardi is absolutely perfect as Freddy Krueger! Lombardi plays Freddy more as a homage instead of flat out copying Robert Englund, while portraying the character his way! This film and "Krueger (A Tale from Elm Street) are proof that Notarile and Lombardi can handle this material and the fans seem to agree!

Picking up directly where the first one left off, Chris R. Notarile's eagerly awaited sequel to his much admired original horror short gets right down to stirring brass tacks and delivers exactly what it promises with Freddy Krueger facing off against his formidable peers Jason Voorhees, Michael Myers, and Leatherface in a battle for his very soul. Notarile stages the wall-to-wall fast'n'furious fight set pieces with his trademark lean'n'mean skill and brio; it's a total treat to see these major horror icons vigorously mix it up in an extremely brutal no-holds-barred manner (for example, Freddy kicks Leatherface right where it hurts most). Roberto Lombardi portrays Freddy with a burning rage and vitality that's impressive and entertaining in equal measure. Of course, Freddy gets to spit out a few choice terse one-liners amid all the fierce butt-stomping (all-time favorite line; Krueger to Jason: "They should have drowned you at birth!"). Hector De La Rosa as Jason, Josh Rothman as Michael Myers, Anthony Palmisano as Leatherface, and Kevin Lennon as Pinhead (the latter is voiced by Notarile with appropriate deep and sinister relish) are all likewise sturdy in their roles. Kudos are also in order for Notarile's polished cinematography and snappy editing as well as the cool rocking soundtrack. But it's ultimately the sheer go-for-it verve of the whole enterprise that makes it such a blast to watch. Highly recommended.
