Amateur movie with Big budget
ChicDragon
It's a mild crowd pleaser for people who are exhausted by blockbusters.

The tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.

Great movie. Not sure what people expected but I found it highly entertaining.

Our film starts out after countless centuries of watching, waiting and stalking, the unholy creatures known as werewolves are poised to inherit the earth. After newscaster Karen White's (Hana Ludvikova, who is clearly not Dee Wallace, I mean she doesn't even have the same hair color!) shocking on-screen transformation and violent death, her brother Ben (Reb Brown) is approached by Stefan Crosscoe (Christopher Lee), a mysterious man who claims that Karen has, in fact, become a werewolf. But this is the least of their worries... To save mankind, Stefan and Ben must travel to Transylvania to battle and destroy Stirba, the immortal queen of all werewolves, before she is restored to her full powers!...The Howling II: Your Sister is a Werewolf is definitely a big WTF! when one views it for the first time and after Joe Dante's classic original, this has it all, odd characters witch serve no purpose, strange dwarfs running around, and countless odd werewolf orgy scenes, yes, i did say that. What is weird is that this is a European film as most of all of it was made in the Czech Republic, this results in almost all the cast being unheard of Europeans, the IMDb says that some of the film was filmed in Los Angeles maybe the over head shots were and the wear house scene, but, ill be damned if i see anything resembling L.A. here, in one version of the film the end credits plays the weirdest polka music ever heard, I'm not joking. There is also reports that Christopher Lee regrets being in the film only agreeing to do so, because he was never in a werewolf film, and it shows here, Lee hopelessly drags throw ever scene, not even looking like he's even trying. As for other acting its pretty bad Brown is awfully wooden when he isn't constantly screaming as he does in all his movies all the time. McEnroe is also amateurish and her character is pretty worthless. Danning is pretty much just here for one thing and you know what that is look hot, in scatty clothing. It was also reported that Lee would read his script alone, because co-stars Reb Brown and Annie McEnroe were so bad at there lines. He later reported that he apologized to Joe Dante for appearing in the film on the set of Gremlins 2: The New Batch (1990).The special effects here are pretty bad and that's saying something from me because i can usually make the worst effect fun, but, here the werewolf costumes are ape looking and the film realize on prosthetic werewolf heads in several scenes, also director Phillipe Mora, moves and cuts the camera shots so fast you'll be drunk by the time the film ends, i mean the editing is really wild. As for violence and nudity, its wilder then the first film, a midgets eyes pop out, and a bat creature comes out of a mans mouth, some people and werewolves are also shot, stabbed, and clawed, as for nudity Sybil Danning shows off her breasts, which is repeated about a thousand times during the end credits, as do Marsha Hunt (you may know her as Mick Jagger's love interest and father of his child), as do several other werewolf women.All in all Howling II: Your Sister is a Werewolf is just plain crazy!!! and it fails extremely as a sequel to Joe Dante's classic original, its bad, but, I must say I enjoyed it for its wacked out campiness which is what its remembered for, I just shut my brain off and enjoy and Howling fans along with horror fans should also do the same. I have read the "The Howling" novel and its sequel "Howling II" the second book does not have any connection to this movie whatsoever. Also Scream Factory released the film on Blu-Ray with a list of several nice special features in 2015.

This is one schizophrenic film that through either some miracle or the genius of people involved with post-production manages to generate a distinct tone that I personally found extremely enjoyable. This is a film filled with contrasts. Some elements are really good. Cinematography is for the most part competent, and all those scenes shot at night are competently lit. But sometimes you will notice a scene that is shot in a weird way or that betrays either a zero budget, a total lack of concern for the quality of the film, or outright incompetence. It is as though the screenwriter, the director, the actors and the editor had completely different ideas about what the film was about. I wouldn't be surprised if the project started out as a straight horror film but after a week or two of shooting they decided to turn it into a comedy. I would love to know just how this messy project developed. I doubt that anyone had the vision from day one and wanted the film to turn out exactly the way it did.Christopher Lee is great as usual, and Reb Brown is his usual self: lots of screaming and shooting on his part. Sybil Danning is clearly loving that crazy role of hers and her scenes are always fun to watch. All in all, this film is surprisingly enjoyable, in part due to the fact that every single scene is awkward in some way, be it the lines, the acting, the blocking, the costumes, the editing, or some weird element of the mise-en-scene. This film has it all: horny werewolves, nudity, Reb Brown, zombie midgets, holy grenades, (in)voluntary humour, and an awesome score performed by Babel. For me personally this film is a comedy gold mine, because every time I see it I notice some new thing that makes me laugh. I think the charm of the film lies in the fact that whether intentionally or unintentionally it turned out to be outrageously funny and whoever had the last word during post-production realized it and apparently deliberately put the material together in a comedic way. Watch this, and watch it again. It will only get better.

Appallingly stupid, poorly conceived sequel stars Christopher Lee(quite a comedown from his Hammer Films stardom!) as a mysterious hunter of werewolves, who persuades the brother of Karen White(Dee Wallace from Part I, absent here.) to accompany him to Transylvania(of course!) where he must destroy a powerful female werewolf and her clan, before they take over the world(or some such thing). Havoc ensues.Joe Dante did not return to direct this mess(never asked, apparently!) which was good news for him, since this is a true embarrassment for all concerned, though if you're a Sybil Danning fan, the bizarre ending credit sequence will no doubt be the highlight(it was!)

Howling II picks in at the ending of The Howling (1981) and has Christopher Lee on board. We follow Ben White (Reb Brown) the brother of Karen White (who died in the first Howling) who wants to know what happened with his sister and decide to follow Stefan Crosscoe (Christopher Lee) to Transilvania to hunt down a gang of werewolves. This all looks promising but I can tell you that it isn't what it should be.The reason for this turkey is the fact that The Howling 2 should have been a comedy but once shot the producers decided to at scary elements to it. That explains the bad editing and the fact that inserts of the werewolves looked ridiculous. But not only that, the acting wasn't convincing too and it's clearly to see that Lee saw that he was in a turkey, he just says his words without any emotions. Not only that, some werewolves really looked laughable and people just howling didn't add towards the scariness or horror element. Some parts were shot in the UK so they added a Gothic/Punk club, but even that was a mistake. On the walls you can see Specimen (gothband) and G.B.H. (punk) amongst others but also Batcave. Batcave was a goth club in Soho London. Not only the movie looks like it didn't fit well, the end credits are the only thing really worth watching because it's a compilation of alternate takes and deleted takes combined with Sybil Danning ripping of her shirt 18 times to show her buxom juggs. Be advised, The Howling franchise is the worst entry you will ever see up to 2012. Gore 0/5 Nudity 2/5 Effects 2/5 Story 2/5 Comedy 0/5
