A surprisingly multi-tiered plot. A little heavy handed at first but once everything settles in it becomes entertaining. While the production is better with snappier editing, the acting is clearly worse than the original.

I'm not sure who this is supposed to appeal to; "fans" of the original film itself or fans of it's MST3k episode. It's too self-aware to not end up insulting both crowds. Instead of a real sequel, Sloane has given us a bizarre masturbatory self-homage bogged down by so many not-so-subtle nods to its predecessor that it might as well be its predecessor. A sad attempt to cash in on a cult following that was provided by much more talented people, Hobgoblins 2 is bad at being bad.
