The original film came out in 1984.

I enjoyed the hell out of that movie when I saw it a year or 2 ago because of the low budget 80s relic that it is.
But I can't imagine why anybody thought there was a need for a sequel.

It looks pretty much what I expected. It's a shame they couldn't get a bigger budget. Somehow the original movie looked better.

And after almost 40yrs, it reeks of desperation. I initially assumed it was one of those instances where some random upstart company got a hold of the rights to some random old title and thiuhht they'd exploit it for the little money they could. But it turns out the director of the original is the director of this one... and he hasn't directed anything else. So it's a guy clinging on to his old IP... and he's also producing the upcoming Silent Night, Bloody Night 3. So he seems to be moving into his desperation phase of life. |

So it's a meta sequel, like Town That Dreaded Sundown 2014? Huh.

I think I will be better off with going for the Blu-ray release by Arrow Video, in which I have been wanting for some time.
Saw the original back in spring of 2020, and while I did not love it, thought it still had some potential for improvement upon another visit.
The trailer sure looks cheap, and in way that I guess is very similar to the recent one that was the Dark Night of the Scarecrow 2 (2022):

Oh good lord that trailer looks awful! I really enjoyed the first "Scarecrow" film.
