On my third attempt at watching it I finally finished it and it was just awful I’d rather rewatch puppet master the littlest reich than this

Accidentally watched this first cos i thought it was the original but its actually the sequel (the naming scheme is weird). Anyways, this fucking sucks.

The film has a good look, but the characters try and fail hard at being stereotypical 80s slasher characters.

Question, is bringing up daddy-mommy complexes based on Greek mythology a good flirting technique? Asking for a friend.
