Abomination: The Evilmaker II

"Abomination: EvilMaker 2" is an adequate sequel to the original without going over the same ground. The new lead is not as powerful as the original (Stephanie Beaton), but she comes across as so sincere and good-natured that she does the job. Big surprise is Jon Wilmot, who underplays the role of the disgraced ex-cop successfully. It is indeed Felicia Pandolfi, back in form as one of our favorite "b-movie goth chicks" who brings the most energy. Musical score is above average for an effort of this type. DVD also has some very good features about the making of the film, and the film makers, to their credit, point out several obstacles they had to try to overcome to finish the film. The last 20:00 does contain some good twist and turns, one or two that I could not predict. Whereas the b-movie horror makers in California are more or less a heartless machine (I've never liked the films of Fred Ray, Winorski or their ilk), I would prefer renting or buying a horror film done for the right reasons, like this one. It took a second viewing to spot the subtle color scheme whenever sister Racheal appears. Here's hoping there will be a nice wrap up, completing a memorable low-budget trilogy.

How on earth did this actually make it to video store shelves? I honestly do not understand how that occurred. This movie could only be considered cool if a group of my friends made it after drinking all day, as a joke. Also, it pretty much goes without saying that anyone who gave this "film" even a remotely positive review was either A) somehow involved with the cast or crew or B) twelve years old, and excited he got to rent a movie with topless girls in it, without his parents noticing. (Note in regards to the topless girls: NOT the kind of girls you want to see take their clothes off.) The only good thing I can say about this movie, is that it kind of inspired me to get a group of people together, get wasted, and improv a ridiculously bad horror film....which is pretty much what Abomination seems to have done, anyway.

Nearly unwatchable trash from the studio of BrainDamage films...I got this in a set (Vamps) with 3 other low low quality movies. Now, I like low budget crap, and I love horror movies...this was Z-grade disappointment. Horrible writing, acting, directing, sound, sets, etc. Gives indie films and BrainDamage a bad, bad name.

The plot is barely decipherable (girl goes to house where sister disappeared w/ fat cop in tow, they enter a new dimension). I pretty much had to fast forward to prevent from hanging myself. Slow, incoherent drivel seems like it was written the day after a hangover by an illiterate blind ape. A couple boob shots added nothing, I was depressed I own this. Zero redeeming qualities. Shame on everyone who touched this.

This was released on the Brain Damage films label, and from my experience they release a few good low-budget horror movies ("The Coven" namely), and the rest of their releases are utter garbage. Abomination is utter garbage, make no mistake.

It looks like it was shot on VHS video, the picture is extremely murky (i saw it on DVD). The sound is like it was all recorded on location with cheap equipment and never mixed from the raw stock. It's very difficult to hear the dialogue many times throughout the movie.

The acting is VERY BAD, even for a no-budget film such as this. The plot is equally as terrible. When i read the DVD cover in the rental store it sounded like it might be a good little movie, but alas i was wrong. It's quite boring also, nothing very interesting happens until near the end...and even that is rather stupid.

The special effects are laughable, we have "vomit" that looks very much like Tapioca Pudding (i guess that is what it really was). The death scenes are so fake it is almost hilarious when you're watching them.

What amazes me is that the DVD for Abomination includes a "Making Of" that is over an hour long, another 36+ minutes of interviews, and another 15+ minutes of bloopers/outtakes. No, i did not waste my time watching any of those! Who exactly would waste their valuable time to know more about this movie?!?!?

The only saving grace i can possibly think of during this film was the music score had a few good moments. That's it...no scares...no laughs...some brief nudity, but the women are not very good looking...

There are so many low-budget horror films out there that are vastly better than Abomination. Even if you are the type of horror fan who watches every horror film released (like me), you should avoid this like the plague........

After watching the first Evilmaker I patiently waited for them to put out sequel. So when they did, I was surprised and a little sad to see that this one didn't have Stephanie Beaton in it. But Kylene Wetherel did a decent job replacing her. Anyway, the movie starts off with a supreme feeling of dread and suspense. The thing that I thought was really bad in this film was Shannon. I honestly think that she was reading her lines off of a cue card. It was that blatantly obvious. Other than that, rent this movie if you have only seen the first otherwise you'll be confused as to what's going on. And I hope to see more of that Kylene chick. She really shines!!
