I loved the original ABCs of Death, but the sequel was an absolute disappointment. The title sequence and music was creative and creepy, but most of the letter sequences fell short. One thing I will say to anyone interested in this film, it gets better as it goes. I don't understand why, but the beginning stories are the weakest while the closing stories feel like the whole reason to watch. There are a few worth noting in the middle, but I have to stress that, as an overall movie, the ABCs of Death 2 just doesn't hold up. I don't want to do a sequence-by-sequence review, so I'll just say D, Y, and Z were probably my favorites.

Still Uneven, but Getting Better

Anthology horror is a genre that has been making a comeback in the last two years thanks to the success of films like the original ABCs of Death as well as the V/H/S series. However, while the idea of behind anthology horror is sound, the result is often a mixed bag - the good, the bad and the best forgotten. The concept is simple - each director is given a letter of the alphabet, chooses a word and makes a short horror film based on that word. The original was uneven at best - the second series is a step above, but just so - there is more good here than before, but the average and plain bad still outnumber the more memorable shorts. That being said - it's still a good choice for horror fans - here's my take on each short:

A is for Amateur (directed by E.L. Katz) - A great start - …
