Savage Harvest 2 (2006)

- written June 4, 2009

Summary: Thirteen years have passed since a group of six friends awakened evil demons on a rural farm. The last remaining survivor, Mikki committed suicide several years ago. Her younger sister Ashley, receives an video of her blood-drenched sister that reopened all the old emotions from her sister’s suicide. So she returned to her hometown to try and heal but once there she runs into her old high school sweetheart Tyge. He is staying with his friend Zack, who happens to be involved with Native American folklore which also ends up connecting him to the events from years ago. So they all head back to the farm where Mikki survived and unwittingly release the same spirits that spearheaded the original demonic events.           Overall: It's interesting because the original writer/director, Eric Stanze, ended up just acting in this film while Jason Christ took his directing turn. I thought the film started a bit slow for me as we establish everyone and all their own demons and stories. That’s not a bad thing since I tend to harp on it when there is a lack thereof but there’s a lot of background and buildup here. Once it does pickup we have victims and goriness everywhere and that’s a good thing. I think the acting here was better than the first film, and of course Emily Haack does her usual great job. Overall I’d recommend both films for a watching!           Comparison: Evil Dead 2 meets Savage Harvest
