Cold Prey 2 (2008)
9/10
Blows The First One Away, Best Slasher I've Seen In Years
17 July 2012
I've had the Cold Prey movies built up to me for a while now. All my friends have told me that I need to see them since I like horror movies so much. I had put off watching them since I figured I would just be let down, but finally I decided to sit down and watch the first and second one. I thought the first film was fairly mediocre but I still enjoyed it. Then I popped "Cold Prey 2" in and I was speech less.

There are 3 things that every slasher movie needs to be enjoyable

1. Likable characters - You have to like them in order to be able to cheer them on.

2. A Scary Killer - Someone so intimidating and terrifying that just the sheer thought of them coming after you gives you goosebumps.

3. A Good Pace - This is what a lot of slasher movies get wrong and this was one of the main problems I had with the first film. You don't want to take too long to get the kills going.

"Cold Prey 2" succeeds in all 3 of these aspects very well. The Killer is terrifying, the characters are likable, and things get going almost right from the start. Plenty of gore for the gore hounds and plenty of kills.

If you were not a fan of the 1st film I still suggest you give this one a try. Its a great ride 9/10
