[BeRightBack]

The first did well enough, apparently, so here comes the 2nd.

Additional confirmed filmmakers include Lithuania’s Kristina Buozyte and Bruno Samper (VANISHING WAVES), Japan’s arthouse provocateur Sion Sono (COLD FISH, SUICIDE CLUB), SPLICE and CUBE’s Vincenzo Natali, indie horror icon Larry Fessenden (THE LAST WINTER, HABIT), THE COLLECTION’s Marcus Dunstan, France’s Julien Maury and Alexandre Bustillo (INSIDE, LIVID), E.L. Katz (director of the SXSW breakout hit CHEAP THRILLS), twin auteurs Jen and Sylvia Soska (AMERICAN MARY, DEAD HOOKER IN A TRUNK), Israel’s Aharon Keshales and Navot Papushado (RABIES, BIG BAD WOLVES), A LONELY PLACE TO DIE’s Julian Gilbey, Brazil’s most controversial filmmaker Dennison Ramalho (NINJAS and LOVE FOR MOTHER ONLY), THE LEGEND OF BEAVER DAM and the upcoming STAGEFRIGHT’s Jerome Sable, and animator Robert Morgan – creator of the BAFTA Award nominated short BOBBY YEAH.

The first was decent enough, and it looks like they'll be taking a page from vhs2, by hiring more prolific directors. I hope they give the directors more time in the shorts, don't really care if it makes the movie 21/2, 3 hours.

[The Revelator]

Why not. The first was decent, the concept can yield different results each film obviously

[Deadly Fiend]

The bad definitely outweighed the good in the first film. Not sure if I'll check this sequel out.

Why didn't I expect that in the first place - a sequel.
The list is impressive, but so was the first as well. And some renowned directors couldn't convince me with their contribution there.

We will see.

Hey! I agree

Can't wait to see what we get from Sion Sono, and Vincenzo Natali.

The first one is good and entertaining, despite the bad shorts but thats inevitable with 26 segments. I like the mix of known and less-known directors and contributions from all over the world, though I hope this time a little less 'humor' and more 'horror' than the first part, the good ones were the more serious ones.

This looks promising too, looking forward to De la Iglesia, Sono, Natali, Dunstan, Keshales & Papushado and ofcourse Bustillo & Maury.

[VampressTristine]

The first was pretty bad, so the sequel can only be better, right?

[Se7en Sins]

I was bored as fuck during the original and the only parts I actually remembered were "L" (Which was amazing) and "D".

I'll check it out since the list of directors seems much more promising than the original but having 26 different stories is a recipe for disaster.

[The Geek]

The first was awful. There was some great segments through out but they were few and far between.

[luke ramer]

The talent involved in this one is far and away better than the original, which was fuckin awesome to begin with.

The simple fact that Alexandre Bustillo and Julien Maury have a segment in this makes me want to see it. That's a hell of alot more exciting than Ti West (the most overrated director working in horror)
