The WORST SEQUEL EVER!

GOD...
This Stunk!!! One of the very few times I agree with most of the reviews on the IMDB. I've seen better acting in a children's recital. It looks as if much of the scenes in this thing were ad-libbed... By non-actors. Their performances make one long for the days of '70's porno, where the acting stunk... But at least there was a payoff.
This movie is pretty much just the first Boogeyman, only with narration. So even Stevie Wonder can enjoy this film! This movie is for the “Seeing Impaired”!
Melodramatic fluff. As bad as the first Boogeyman was, this film makes the original movie look like Citizen Kane. The one interesting thing about the original was that you never really saw a killer. This film won’t even allow your imagination to make this any better; it’s a color by numbers sequel. And this is OFFCIALLY… The WORST sequel to any movie I’ve ever seen.
I wish I had listened to all of you, now I have tattooed my brain with this crap.

DON'T trust Swan. Look what happened to Winslow Leach. This was a putrid sequel, by the way & you know, "Boogeyman II" pulled the same crap loading up on footage from part 1.

The version of Boogeyman 2 was Uli Lommel's crap "Director's Cut". He just hated the sequel so he tried to bury it by making his own cut made up mostly of flashbacks. The actual movie was better and didn't feature flashbacks. If you can find a copy of Boogeyman 2 with flames and breaking glass on the cover, THAT'S the real sequel.

So basically there are two sequels recycling footage from the original? "Return of the "Boogeyman" and "Boogeyman II" (not to be confused with "Boogeyman 2" from 2007). I agree that this "sequel" is horrible, but I'm not sure if it even counts as a sequel. It's basically just clips from the first film repeated endlessly while a psychic woman chats with her therapist.

It's like one of those YouTube mashups where they re-cut a film to make it their own. I gave it 2/10 stars, only because of some fairly interesting clips from the first film (which was surprisingly good.)
