Platicsco Good story, Not enough for a whole film

2freensel I saw this movie before reading any reviews, and I thought it was very funny. I was very surprised to see the overwhelmingly negative reviews this film received from critics.

AnhartLinkin This story has more twists and turns than a second-rate soap opera.

ersinkdotcom There's just something about the country of Norway that lends itself to being the perfect location for a horror film. Maybe it's the image most people have of it being desolate, cold, dark, and isolated. It might also have something to do with the fact that 90 percent of the music we hear coming out of the country is death or black metal. "Cold Prey II" definitely doesn't help give movie audiences an alternate view of what to expect if you plan a ski trip to that part of the world.After surviving a horrific killing spree at an abandoned ski lodge, a college girl named Jannicke (Ingrid Bolsø Berdal) is taken to a remote hospital for treatment. She tells her story to the local police who decide to investigate her claims. They return hours later with the bodies of her four friends and the mountain man responsible for the massacre. Unfortunately, the monstrous murderer isn't dead and begins slaughtering the patients, nurses, and doctors in his mission to finish what he started with Jannicke."Cold Prey II" is the perfect example of a modern slasher film done right. Although it brings nothing new to the table, it manages to keep up a level of suspense and delivers some legitimate jump scares at the same time.I couldn't shake the feeling that director Mats Stenberg and writer Thomas Moldestad were doing their own version of "Halloween II" and "Friday the 13th: The Final Chapter" for a Norwegian audience. Like those classic 1980s films, much of the action takes place in a hospital. The vision of the giant killer in "Cold Prey II" standing at the end of a corridor with the lights blinking reminded me of the same type of scenes in the sequels to John Carpenter and Sean S. Cunningham's iconic originals."Cold Prey II" is a welcome addition to the slasher genre. It's not doing anything new, but continues passing the torch to a new generation of horror fans and filmmakers. It will give viewers a sense of hope we don't get much anymore when it comes to these types of movies.http://contributor.yahoo.com/user/849014/eric_shirey.html

Nitzan Havoc Having seen the first film of the series, I was really looking forward to this one. Fritt Vilt should definitely be remembered as Norway's lead Slasher (though I haven't had any chance to see any other Norwegian Horror films). Instead of writing this review as I usually like to, separating the good from the bad, I've decided this time to write my thoughts in the chronological order they've occurred.First of all - Cold Prey 2 picked up pretty much exactly where Cold Prey ended, and was an actual sequel, rather than a film that only used the same location or same slasher. It even used the same surviving girl from the first film. A very good thing in my opinion! Unfortunately, something about her hair was different. It wasn't as obvious as Mark Hamil's total makeover between The Empire Strikes Back and The Return of the Jedi, but it was still noticeable and slightly hurt suspension of disbelief.Second - Slasher-wise, this sequel unfortunately pretty much devastated all the greatness of the first film. While in the first film the characters were up against a man (larger and stronger than average and completely crazy, but still a man), in this one the Mountain Man had become this Jason Voorhees adaptation. Suddenly - his strength levels in the superhuman, and a wrench thrown directly at his head has barely any effect. A let down... However, the background story attached to this phenomenon was dark, murky and original. Still, better off with just human slashers, I say either make the film a monster/aliens film or one with human villains. Most importantly - be persistent, if the first film presented the slasher as a man, don't make him a superhero in the 2nd.Third - the ending, while having no twists and no exceptionally wise turn of events, was still very original and well done! Excellent acting by Ingrid Bolsø Berdal (despite her hair) and a great way to finish the story while leaving some potential loose ends for the third film.Coming to think of it, now that I re-read the aforementioned notes, I think I liked this film even more than the first one! What a pity that based on the rules of 99% of trilogies, the third one is going to be lousy :) Let's hope it isn't!

Butterfly_47 Fritt Vilt really impressed me so I decided to watch the second part as well. Sequels disappoint me all the time so I kept my expectations low.I was surprised! Fritt Vilt 2 did NOT disappoint me at all. I think it's a very good sequel. I liked the first part better but this movie is also worth watching.I loved how it picks up exactly where the last one left off. The atmosphere in the movie is very dark and tense, there is no dull moment. It's entertaining and gripping from beginning to end.What I liked a lot in the movie is that the audience gets some information about the killer, we see interesting parts of his back story.7/10. Great sequel!

SivakumarBalachandran I watched this movie back to back with its first one.I found this one was a better thriller than the first.But this screenplay also follows the famous movies like "visiting hours" It was a solid start from part 1. Not like other movies here you meet the killer with a new team, this starts from what it ended in the first part.The lead heroine was very convincing in her role since she comes out well in this part.I should say the accompanying doctor girl had a charming cute comedy stuff face but she tried well.On the whole it was convincingly presented except some loop holes like they fail to mention about the corpses they found later on in the crevasse.I would rate it 7 on 10. cos this movie has got some thrills ...Waiting to see what would they do in the third part.........
