Review For The Collection |
Just a pointless exercise in sadism. Nicole Herrington-New York Times
People in Hollywood need to work and surely "The Collection" created a lot of jobs, but there must be a better way. Adam Graham-Detroit News
Dull and repetitive, even by the standards of an already repetitive genre. Michael O'Sullivan-Washington Post
Melton and Dunstan have created little more than a hollow shell for an empty box. Mark Olsen-Los Angeles Times
There's a bad movie every week, but it takes a special one to make you start anticipating the decline of Western civilization. Mick LaSalle-San Francisco Chronicle
More than anything, the sequel feels like an excuse for Dunstan and his effects team to see how creative they can be in the bloody killing of people using pointy metal objects. -Associated Press
Most of the rampant gore effects are too sloppy to be interesting... John Beifuss-Commercial Appeal (Memphis, TN)
An exercise in pure sadism, The Collection moves at a clip that leaps over plot holes in its race to elicit fright. No weighty psychology or physical logic freights this enterprise. Marjorie Baumgarten-Austin Chronicle
Not scary but rather is just a disgusting exercise in gore, dismemberment and bloodletting. Jackie K. Cooper-jackiekcooper.com
Just buckets of the same old boring gore. Brett Michel-Boston Phoenix
Comes off as a disappointment, failing to live up to its sequel potential by advancing the conflict and expanding murderous appetites in an exciting, imaginative manner. Brian Orndorf-Blu-ray.com
The Collection is one of those horror films that really makes you sound like a deranged psychopath for recommending, but demands to be spread like a mind-controlling plague. Matt Donato-We Got This Covered
things quickly reach a level of silliness that fits more in a comedy or spoof than an actual horror film Kevin Carr-7M Pictures
The Collection is not going to win over gore film skeptics - and that's not necessarily a bad thing. It's an unapologetic celebration of splatter cinema. Ben Kendrick-ScreenRant
The Collection never hits audiences in the stomach with any immediate sense of danger, and the dialogue and most of the performances feel entirely too campy for the movie to actually be taken seriously. Maybe that is the point, but I don't think so. Matthew Odam-Austin American-Statesman
The Collection is brainless, inconsistent, and full of holes. It does offer a ton of gore, but there is absolutely nothing else to enjoy here other than that. Chris Sawin-Examiner.com
While I'm not entirely sure that it makes much sense, I had a great time with its ultraviolent concoction of b-movie frippery. William Bibbiani-CraveOnline
Not for the squeamish and is definitely for those that can handle a lot of sick and twisted violence. Recommended for true torture porn fans. Jeffrey Lyles-Lyles' Movie Files
A rare sequel that ably tops the original in just about every department. Dustin Putman-DustinPutman.com
Dunstan mistakes unpleasantness for fear, reveling in gore for its own sake and destroying any anticipation or suspense in the bargain. Rob Vaux-Mania.com
The whole thing is a fairly yawn-a-rific affair until the vengeful prologue establishes a wicked role reversal, hinting at the better movie that filmmakers more interested in storytelling would have made. Eric Kohn-indieWIRE
