Having been in the N segment, I was really pleased to hear it was one of the ones you liked! Fessenden is a really talented guy, above being super cool to work with. Thanks for your review!

Glad my time in the air duct was well received.

I was in charge of the promo for the original movie for the network I work for and when I heard there was a second one I wasn't too excited but your review has kind of convinced me to go ahead and watch this (if I don't have to already for work). Thanks!

"That candle smells nice, what is it?"

"It's your favourite,  it's p-p-p-p-p-p-p grape..."


P-p-p-p Scary was my favourite, I lost my shit laughing.
(Deloused was my second favourite)

I liked this compilation, it was fun and easy to watch. There were some bad ones, specially de P one and the one with the black demon like you said, but most of them were very interesting :) my favorite was the Z one, the S and the one with the black shadow circule in the sky making people kill each other, they were pretty good :D

[BaggyMcPiper]

Z's director was Chris Nash, not John Nash.

[GlaciusTS]

The problem with P is that is didn't really fit the genre... Felt like pure weird comedy. But it did give me a pretty good laugh. I think that particular style is hit or miss with most people.

[Exerus]

E was my fav, it shows you what real priorities should be.

[StuffedBurritoEnt]

I'll never forget watching the first film with you at that festival. Jesus, what a mind fuck, haha. I'll watch this one but when I do, I'll tread lightly. Ooooh, and do I detect the sound quality of a Blue Yet mic??? 

[WJames-vkkp]

I guarantee X is for Xylophone is from the director of Inside. Had the same villain in both. Loved it.

[big_herm_tvt]

My favorite was C for Capital punishment

[briansheil]

The one with the black demon you're talking about is "L is for Legacy".

[ashrayne]

I watched this a while ago... my favorites (or those that stuck in my head) were J is for Jesus (made me happy), T is for Torture Porn, Q is for Questionnaire, X is for Xylophone, and Z is for Zygote.  N is for Nexus was pretty cool.  P, M, L, and V I remember for being lame.  I know there were a few more I liked, but they obviously didn't stick in my head.  I'm really not sure if I liked this one better than the first... the first one was more out there, with some more disturbing entries and some more amusing entries, this one was a bit more well done with less toilet humor (which I hear was banned for this one).   

[SpectreWulf]

I loved Knell absolute spot on genius masterpiece atmospheric horror and  Lovecraftian undertones, I was blown away!!!!

Zygote was awesome too!!!! So insidious and gory

[gandharzero]

My favourite is (Z)ygote which was pretty disgusting and had nice special effects.
I like that kind of splatter. It was my personal winner by far and fits the genre very well.

[CaptainIronButt]

I watched it last night. Overall, I liked the first one better. The only stories I really liked in this one were S for Split and V for Vacation. C for Capital Punishment wasn't bad either, but nothing compared to L is for Libido in the first film. I loved that one. I guess I was hoping for more stories like that one in this sequel.

[DarthSoto]

I liked O. That was the one I wanted expanded into a full movie.

[retrovideogamejunkie]

i guess i like o for ochlocracy because for the potencial of that concept ... like the resident evil 7 after they can shoot and drive vehicules XD read news? zombie talk shows? ....aw, right, now is silent hills

[moonireads]

Oh and my favorite for the previous movie was X! I loved that one and I loved the sci-fi one... guh I can't remember it was a robvotic world with Telekinesis. I also reeeally liked the 'inborn' one and I've used severeal takes from that in promos for the network.

What are your thoughts on the trailer for the 2015 film Amityville:  The Awakening ?
