Review of Vacancy 2: The First Cut

Prequel tale about the men who ran the motel (where they filmed the torture and rap of the guests) in the first film and some of their first guests at a different motel. Better than it should be, but not as good as the first film which did what it did and knew when to get off. The problem is that any thing special in the first film is kind of wiped away but going too far into illogic (There are too many guests for their plot to really work) and descending into what no doubt could be a formula of hunt and kill. On its own its not a bad little thriller of the crazies on the prowl genre, but at the same time other than its setting and connection to the first film there really isn't much here, even if it it well done. Good.certainly, watchable. but nothing thats going to stick with you or be something you'll want to see again (however if you ran across it on cable you might-if you like these sort of movies)
