At some point the decision to make this a sequel was dropped (originally it was to pick up where part one left off) and it was re-tooled into a stand alone movie.

Coffin Baby - Will's Review
Those of you who have been paying attention will know that Coffin Baby was the killer in the "Toolbox Murders" remake, and this film was originally "TBK: The Toolbox Murders 2" (TBK standing for 'Tool Box Killer').

Blood Feast 2 - Will's Review
After being board stupid by the original Blood Feast I was, understandably, not looking forward to it's long-time-coming sequel; where the original at least had its age and relative importance working in its favor (it was arguable the first ever 'gore' movie) this sequel would have to have more going for it than a few pounds of butcher's shop offal going for it to justify its existence.

Mother of Tears - Will's Review
And so, we bid farewell to the Three Mothers Trilogy - Meh.
Sorry for the delay by the way - I've been struck down with a nasty (and rather persistent) cold; In fact, I have been toying with the idea of giving this one a second watch-through before reviewing it, feeling I may have missed something. On reflection though, looking back at the other two films in the trilogy a clear head is likely to have made little difference.

Mother of Tears - Lisa's review
*** SPOILERS ***
So a little late due to power outages with our weather, but I'm finally getting around to my review.
So the last in the trilogy of our Argento movies and I can't say I'm sad to see the back of them. I'm just not a fan at all I'm afraid, so you can imagine where this review is going....
Something I will give this movie is that its not afraid of the old gore. I have to admit to liking the copious amount of nasty and imaginative ways to meet the end in this movie, but it did have the same disjointed, confusing feel to it. I suppose I just watched it for the next 'good bit'.
The basic premis surrounds a coffin being unearthed with the remains of the old mother in it. There is also a smaller casket secured to the top with various artifacts inside. What happens isn't hard to imagine... casket is opened and power of evil is released... even with the stereotypical 'blood from accidentally cut hand' awakening things.... yawn.
The only things for me worth mentioning are the deaths and the lovely piece of music at the end courteousy of 'Cradle of filth'.
