This is basically a Whitman’s Sampler of poor taste, and a tastier one at that. Read full review

Keith Uhlich

Omnibus features are by their nature uneven, so it’s to the benefit of the ABCs Of Death series that the creative constraints (26 short horror films, each one pegged to a specific letter of the alphabet) encourage brevity. Read full review

Overall, it's a strong sampler, with surprising variety. Read full review

Irony is a popular pose struck throughout these shorts, which are less revealing of the existentialist despair that death often rouses than they are of their makers' prejudices. Read full review

The shorts in The ABCs Of Death 2 are wholly forgettable, and leave the limits of the gimmicky conceit completely exposed. Read full review

Frank Scheck

ABCs of Death 2 mainly serves to demonstrate that even talented filmmakers need a lengthier running time to craft even a moderately successful short. Read full review

The Soska sisters’ feminist ‘T Is For Torture Porn’ has the most to say but everyone will have their own favourites (D, K, T, X and Z, since you asked). Read full review

A year after the first release of ABC's of Death, comes the second film, a collection of shorts, done by different writers and directors, all 'horror' shorts, based around the concept of Death.

Unlike the first film, which was a major flop, the second one is much more varying in writing. You can tell that the people working with the second film took a much larger interest and put much more effort into their works then the previous people.

There are still a lot of foreign shorts, but only a small handful of them actually require subtitles. The culture is also more spread out and different then the first film, which was clearly mostly Eastern inspired from countries such as Japan.

There's still some shorts that will leave you scratching your head, but there's diamonds in the rough here and it's never so awful you feel like you NEED to stop watching it. This movie is leagues better then it's predecessor.… Expand

Here comes a better review. This movie isn't really good, but it's surely not bad. It's entertaining overall. It's pretty good compared to the first, but yet again, disgusting. But it's just not that really good. It surely is alright, but there just isn't much to it. All i have to say isHere comes a better review. This movie isn't really good, but it's surely not bad.

All i have to say is that it's surely an enjoyable movie, and i can recommend it. This isn't really a review, so yeah.

A little better than its predecessor but honestly the development doesn't work when there are so many stories and they're so short.
