Review
by Kozo: |
Sequel
to the original Troublesome Night. Using the
popular "three horror stories" structure,
this new installment features the same stars as the
first Troublesome Night in all-new situations.
Simon Lui, Louis Koo, and Allen Ting are three DJs who
undergo lots of haunting when various nasty events happen
in their lives making them spiritual targets.
Compared to the first, this
film is a lot darker, ending up with a lot of major
deaths. The first was almost a curiosity: a languid
horror film about strange occurrences. This one goes
over the top to indict and then whack most of the main
characters. The film does some interesting things, but
by the end of the film the plot holes lay revealed.
This is watchable, but not recommended. For those that
like minor scares, this film is a possible diversion.
(Kozo 1997) |
