The Houses October Built 2: Directed by Bobby Roe. With Brandy Schaefer, Zack Andrews, Mikey Roe, Bobby Roe. Recovering from the trauma of being kidnapped last Halloween by the Blue Skeleton, five friends head back out to visit more haunted house attractions. But when signs of the Blue Skeleton start appearing again a new terror begins.

“Though the first movie was hardly spectacular it was original and certainly memorable. It told the story of a group of friends who went on a road trip to various u0026quot;Halloween horror housesu0026quot;. Basically horror attractions, which really do exist and I find fascinating.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eTheir adventure ended badly last time but here they have picked themselves up, dusted themselves off and are doing it again.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eNow last time it was a successful slow build, this time itu0026#39;s a very slow build with no real payoff. What I mean by that is the movie is presented in a documentary form and remains like that for 9/10 of the film so very little actually happens. If youu0026#39;re interested in these horror haunts however youu0026#39;ll have a blast as they are the real thing including the Zombie Pub Crawl and Zombie Run which are annual events.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe movie does have a fantastic twist but I think it was handled very poorly. Top that off with the distinct lack of actual movie content and I found this to be a huge let down. I went in with expectations and they simply werenu0026#39;t met.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eOnce again it has a real charm and is very original, but just doesnu0026#39;t entertain like it should have. Iu0026#39;d love to see a third and final part to meet its potential and finish the story.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe Good:u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eGreat ideau003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eVery originalu003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe Bad:u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eSome weird cinematography choicesu003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe behaviour of the characters is simply not believableu003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eMore a faux documentary than an actual movieu003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThings I Learnt From This Movie:u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eIu0026#39;d love to do a roadtrip of these things!”
