Kuntilanak 2 (2007)
Loud, busy, super-dull
Kuntilanak part 2 is one of so many needless sequels out there. The first one was a moderate box office hit and ultimately lambasted by film reviewers. The second one is even worse. Director Mantovani hasn't grown up a bit from his senseless, in-the-name-of-style-only quick cuts and over-stylized camera-work. The story itself, about a girl who can turn into a killer ghost after chanting a Javanese song doesn't contain enough material to be stretched into a feature length, let alone a trilogy, as the filmmakers planned it.
This time, a subplot about a family who practice black magic and killing people on their sugar plantation feels completely detached from the main story of the Kuntilanak girl. Beside the horrendous acting all around, what you got is only nausea from the camera movement which was seemed to be operated under one and only one idea: if it's moving, it's good.
And last, please beware of the blurbs masquerading as user's comments for this movie on IMDb (they were all submitted on the same day, by the way).
