Damn, Easter really is an untapped goldmine as far as holiday settings for horror movies go. But yeah—this is way more fun than the first movie! Tons more Crite action, cheekier humor, a better “unite the townsfolk” narrative, funnier gore…just all around more playful and…

HailliApr 21, 2019Someone recently asked me (in a very weird “how do you do, fellow kids?” way) if I preferred Critters, Ghoulies, Gremlins, or Hobgoblins. I easily replied “ALL” because there is simply nothing more I’d rather watch than a hodgepodge of said beings murdering Easter bunnies,…

'Gremlins' is to Christmas as Critters 2 is to Easter! "Brad, You can't go in there. Let's just get help! ... Who are we gonna call? Critter Busters?" Have a great Easter everyone!

robynDec 8, 2024It is louder, bigger, better, funnier, sweeter than the first Critters. However they replaced M. Emmet Walsh by Barry Corbin to play Harv, the now retired town sheriff. Corbin does a great job. But I would have loved to see what Walsh would have done with the material,…

Another example of an 80’s horror sequel that I think surpasses the original, this was actually one of the examples I used of films that inspired my own first feature IP sequel. Garris upped the fun factor and somehow still delivered on the gore and bewbs for a PG-13 movie…
Joe LynchMar 11, 2019More blood, more explosions, more Critters! Just as fun as the first but now with gratuitous bounty hunter centerfold boobs, the Hungry Heifer jingle, Eddie Deezen, vegan grandmas, and the giant Critters ball of death! May have bombed at the box office but it’s a…

I mean it’s what you would expect. I wanted my critter ball and I got my critter ball so win win.
Dominic likedCritters 27/10 This is probably the best of the first 3. It was basically just a better version of the first film with more fun and goofy moments. This time the critters said “Bitchin” which was awesome and the critter ball was peak fiction. I enjoyed the plot more in this one and the cast
Pennywise lovedCritters 2“I’m a bounty hunterrrrrrr!!” This movie is awesome, I think I like it more than the first even though I also really enjoyed that one. Great cast and great effects.

It lacks all of the style and sense of fun of the original Critters (1986) and has no reason for existence - aside, of course, from the fact that Critters is a brand name and this is the current model.
Roger Ebert
Chicago Sun-Times
Critters 2: The Main Course offers a heaping helping of everything that’s missing from the first film: a reasonably intelligent and witty script, a supple and unchained playfulness, and an anarchic mélange of diverse genre riffs.
