Self-important, over-dramatic, uninspired.

I wanted to like it more than I actually did... But much of the humor totally escaped me and I walked out only mildly impressed.

It’s sentimental, ridiculously long and only occasionally funny

Video Violence 2 takes a turn away from it's predecessor in that it is far more tongue-in-cheek and silly than the first, which was a lot more serious in tone. A lot of the gags are cheap, and are laughable, as is the acting and plot, but it seems like that was all intentional.the movie begins on set of a horror movie, a campy one about a vampire. When the actress refuses to eat the fake heart, the crew show her how it is done, by removing hers! It then cuts to a news broadcast about a pirate TV show that features killings, before promptly being cut by the pirate TV show - The Howard and Eli show. The two guests start by telling some corny jokes, before showing an ad for a little Christmas toy that kills the child. Howard and Eli then bring out an actress, telling her she's doing an audition for a splatter movie. They tie her up and then begin torturing her. Every so often the show cuts to fan made videos that are sent in, like an ex-cop that electrocutes a criminal's head and pops his eyes out, or man hating women that kill a pizza boy. The show ends and it is revealed that the actress was never actually harmed and it was just a gag. The crew receive a tape, from Steve and Rachael, the victims of the first one. They break in with a shotgun and a chainsaw... And then remove masks to reveal that they aren't those two.I love this movie, is so campy and hilarious, it's the type of movie you can watch with a beer or some pizza. It's not meant to be taken seriously, and if you turn off your brain and just go in expecting a great time, you'll have a blast.

Video Violence 2 is about an illegal TV show "The Howard and Eli Show" which consists of real snuff videos. They make their own videos killing babes on air and they also show other people videos, homemade snuff. The plot is non-existent, its all like a TV show with commercials and that kind of stuff. The highlight here are the gore scenes that are cool, this is a gory comedy. Sometimes the jokes are too long and even the movie itself is like a very long joke, but its cool and worth for gore fans who like cheesy movies. If you look for good production values, intelligent plot, good lighting and good performances, look far away from this one. I liked it for what it is, a no-brainier movie. 6/10

This video, shot on camcorder is a lot of good campy fun. It's not for the weak of heart or the easily offended but is a fun bad movie.It features a couple guys who host a late night pirated tv show featuring snuff videos their fans send in (they even have an in-studio band). Kind of America's Funniest Home Videos on crack.I loved it, my wife was offended, so I guess it's one of those videos you either love or hate...if you're looking for something different and totally sick, check this out...if you want acting, production values and plot, go rent "Titanic" for the 100th time...

This film is among the thousands of B horror films that I have collected over the years. It has to be one of my favorites in my collection. In order to appreciate what this movie has to offer, you have to be a die hard gore fan. It centers around two guys, Howard and Eli, who form their own talk show with no subject other than splattering innocent victims on national television. In between segments they show cheesy commercials and homemade splatter films sent in from fans. My favorite segment has to be the retired cop and his homemade electric chair because it was funny as well as gory. In fact, most of the film has a deep sense of humor to it. True, there are plenty of gore scenes (very imaginitive but not very convincing)but the movie will make audiences laugh more than anything. If you're looking for academy awards and oscar nominations, this film is not for you. On the other hand, if you just want to see a fun film then I highly recommend this one. It will definitely be a different movie experience for you.
