Reception

Matt Donato of /Film gave the film a negative review, feeling that the film is a forced sequel, he described it as "heartless, unambitious and visually unappealing". He also criticised it for taking inspiration from Silent Night, Deadly Night 2 by replaying footage from the first film extensivly in flashbacks. He summed up his review by stating that the film gives "low-budget" a bad name.[9] Film School Rejects Rob Hunter also gave it a negative review, he expressed that the most interesting parts of the film was the reused footage from the original film.[10] Brian Collins of Birth.Movies.Death was more positive, stating that it was a bold choice of the director to make his film a direct sequel to the original, which share no cast or crew members with each other.[11]
