Um Dia Negro 2: Estrada De Sangue

Great follow-up, was skeptical when I bought this movie since I watched the first one, the special effects in this movie are spectacular especially in the final scene. Remember this one will change what you think about sequels and direct to video movies. Is that great.

I like the concept of this film, and is definitely a classic in the horror suspense genre. Actor Helder Santos, really feels like a maniac, the way he walks, and talks, he won´t stop, even after he killed him in the first movie, evil never dies. It had top notch acting, a great on screen chemistry between killers, and the addiction of the priest, was a good call, it brought more intensity to the story, You don't need to see heads chopped off and what-not for it to be scary, it has more suspense than ever before.

A word of advice : Don't Pick Up Strangers.

First of all i have to say that the hitcher went beyond the borders, I think he stole the show. I hope to see more of him in the future ! The other actors were great, too. Try not to think of this movie as something in real life because some of the things simply won't happen that way in real life. The plot of the story is good except for one hole in it. I'll leave the audience to figure that out. Probably one of the best thrillers I've seen in awhile, its got attitude, and appeal, all in all it was entertaining.

I definitely give this film a 10 out of 10

The psychotic hitchhiker begins stalking Miguel Branco again, gone is the loneliness of a single driver and the rising of terror and confusion that he faced in the original, the main difference from the original is the addition of the priest.

Without doubt some of the action and deaths are well executed by director Rui Constantino and his team, there's not much CGI computer effects work in this until the end when it does tend to become noticeable and a bit distracting.

The indestructible hitcher survives repeated attempts on his life that would fell ordinary mortals, but Miguel Branco continues to try.

7/10

I loved the first movie, and tought that the twists were the best thing about it, this sequel, didn´t have that at all, but it had a new character, and some more cgi special effects, the other one were most pratical, but overall this sequel is not a bad movie,, simple to follow , and lot's of scares.

The cinematography is solid, if not terribly innovative. The editing and directing are excellent - as the film maintains a perfect pace and pitch throughout.

Glory to the soundtrack that this franchise has, and must continue, if they are going to make more of these.
