An absolute waste of money

It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional

Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

...it deserves to be watched for the only reason that you can see what a bad horror movie is. The plot was good, the acting wasn't that sucky, and this movie had a great beginning. Don't get me wrong, this movie had a good potential, and it had Betsy Palmer and hot girls, but turned out to be a mess in the end. Low budget, a lame score, off-screen deaths, and a killer that is to laugh for, make "FEAR : THE RESURRECTION" a bad horror film. What is a slasher film without on-screen deaths? Anyways, check it out and think : more budget, and more wishes to make a good movie would make this a good one.

Pretty good psychological thriller if you ask me.Not as good as the first, [for one you can see Morty's eyes blink in one scene] and the name "Morty" has got to be the dumbest name for a "monster".A decent ending also sold me on this movie. If you liked the first one, you should like this one.

This movie was crap with a capital "C." The opening scene showed promise. But that "promise" was broken shortly after the viewer learns where the plot is going.And the wooden statue, Morty, who was rather creepy in the original film, looks plain goofy in this one. It was so obviously just a guy in a cheap plastic costume. (And by the way, who else thinks "Morty" is one of the most un-scary names on planet earth? It ranks right up there with "Jimmy" or "Fred" when it comes to horror value. Or why not just name the wooden statute Henry-freakin'-Kissinger. "Run, it's Dr. Kissinger!" That'd be about as scary as "Morty.)And then there's a scene where the "hero" hits his father's tombstone with---"a sledgehammer?" you might guess--"a two-by-four?" someone might venture. No, he angrily beats his father's tombstone with a twig---a freakin' twig. But worse than that, once the characters walk away, the tombstone actually, and inexplicably, bleeds. Oh brother!There's also a Native American guy who lives with the main character's grandparents, but apparently, does nothing except Morty-maintenance. He perpetuates creepy Morty-legends, warns those who scoff, and even fixes Morty's arm when it becomes damaged during a childish prank. But for all his respect for and tenderness toward Morty, does Morty give a rat's hairy behind? No.The movie drags on, and eventually several people die in ways that correspond to their worst fears (sort of). This film is a real yawner. Don't rent it.

STAR RATING:*****Unmissable.****Very Good.***Okay.**You Could Go Out For A Meal Instead.*Avoid At All Costs.I really should have learned my lesson by now.Horror sequels,no matter how interesting they may sound or how good their intentions may be,never work.And this heap big pile of babababooshka meant one of the worst halloween night movies I'd had the displeasure of having out in ages.I should have got The Faculty out instead.I only saw it because I remembered seeing the original ages ago,and was interested in seeing what wonders a sequel could toss up.Well,in some parts,dull,predictable,seen-it-all-before cliches were thrown up like anything.I mean,quarter of the way into it,I was left unimpressively baffled.Wow.He attacks his nutty father's tombstone with an axe,and,when he and his lover walk away,wow,it starts to bleed.How scary.(Bram Stoker's Dracula,anyone?)And that scene with the snake in the forest was pathetically stupid.A snake could'nt survive in those temperatures.Pah.On the charecter front,I was most amused by those 2 sexy blonde chicks (one displaying leather trousers I wanted to go up and slap very hard on the bum.)I spent the final half of the movie staring amourously at them.But then,onto good old Morty.In the original,he was a tortured,sympathetic horror creation who you grew to like towards the end.In this shambles of a sequel,a complete waste of time and money for everyone,he's a metamorphosising,crass,cack handed man like beast ,who quotes tired one liners on his hapless victims.I actually thought he looked like Dolph Lundgren a bit in the cupboard.Sequels to excellent,sucessful horror films have stank (Candyman 2,An American Werewolf In Paris),but sequels to unknown,unappreciated horror flicks like The Fear are just torture to sit through.I just absolutely could not wait for this to be over.Utterly unscary,paceless and boring,I would deter you from renting this movie as your halloween treat.*
