Howling II: Your Sister Is a Werewolf
I really don't know why everyone trashes this movie so much.This is definetly not the worst sequel made.I admit the special effects suck and the gore is way overboard.The dialogue is cheesy and the acting sucks.But the thing that matters the most; the plot is very interesting.The characters are also pretty cool.I don't care if anyone says I'm crazy because I had a good time watching it.I liked the score and one song they played alot during the movie.The werewolfs are much better looking in this one then the 3rd one.I also liked some of the mythology they added to the werewolf genre.Any lover of the genre will like this.If your an average viewer you may not be as impressed, but you might want to check this one out when you have the time.Convinced that his sister has been victim of a brutal murderer, Ben, an out-of-town law officer is determined to bring her killer to justice. Ben is approached by an expert on the occult who believes his sister has been the victim of a werewolf cult.To put an end to the evil perpetrated by the werewolves, Ben and his sister's best friend travel to the "Dark Country"-Transylvania- to a decaying palace where torture, death, chaos, and destruction reign supreme.(6/10)

Bottom line: This is not a a scary film
While The Howling II has elments of a horror film, the truth is, its graphic sex scenes and multiple orgies make the horror element mere trappings for what it really is: soft core. Not even a b movie, really. I'll never forget seeing this film at a friend's sleepover birthday party when I was in junior high. We were a bunch of girls who wanted to be scared, and get a good adrenalin rush or two. It started out promising enough, with a woman in a black dress who turns out to be a werewolf who you think is going to be taken advantage of by a couple of sleezebags. We were impressed by that, and the architecture -- but one can only take landscape and architecture so far in this context. Instead we blushed and made jokes about the sex scenes. The idea of summoning the Queen of the Werewolves was good, but they didn't look like werewolves -- they looked like even hairier versions of Big Foot. And that's neither attractive or enthralling to watch in any way.
We didn't even finish watching it. If hormonal pre-teens who are looking for an adrenalin rush didn't go for this movie, I have to say watch out. We couldn't go back to the video store so we ended up watching Pee Wee Herman's big adventure a couple of times -- that was much scarier than the Howling II!

Watching brings headaches...
First off this film is total garbage...(Sorry Christopher Lee) I love horror films and Mr. Lee's are some of my favorites, but even Peter Cushing couldn't have saved this with the help of Vincent Price. Note....this film has been cut to pieces, a late night version came on skina-max several years back (at least 10) and it was unrated.(a must for Sybil Danning fans)It contained a much more sex driven version of the film. If that version was released on DVD I would at least consider it for rental. I have a very old version on VHS, probably a original video release copy....and even that one is rated R. (want werewolves check out Dog Soldiers...awesome)
