Fear Street Part Two: 1978


Another good film.  I liked it, lots, and it made me wonder what is to come in the third.  This series has hooked me in, though with some of the more intimate scenes, it was awkward watching it with my daughter.  I got home from work to find her revising for her mock exams next week on the sofa downstairs and she was willing to end her studies to.  My son is not a fan of horror, at least for now, and made a decision not to watch it with us. 

It may be that I will need to watch all three again once I have watched the final one, though if I do, the soundtrack will be a reason as well as working out how well the plot melds.

While it can be argued that the film is predictable, that is only in that there is going to be a huge body count, especially as we know this from the first film.  The deaths are full of gore, though are more disturbing as they do involve children. 

I was talking earlier today at work, who does not like the sick and twisted films that I am attracted to, about how I like a film that is put together well.  This is one of them.
