Plot:
The second in the ABCs of Death series – 26 directors from around the world were given a letter from the English alphabet and had to make a short, themed on death. Though this was better received than the 1st part, personally feel ABCs 1 had more memorable shorts.
Some of the ones I enjoyed here came late like Ochlocracy, Split, Xylophone (from the makers of Inside) and Zygote.
Random:
Look out for the credits where Laurence R Harvey (Martin from Human Centipede 2) pops up jerking off to one of the shorts.
n is for no story. another n is for not very good…
Z was one hell of an experience
Favs: A, O, R, S, U, Z
I also agree with the part that the prequel movie was more daring and memorable on their themes than this one.
I really thought for a second that T would be about Tentacles but it’s not. haha
This one is good too. More inclined to comedy than the first one, though. That plot twist on “S” was amazing.
Honestly, this was better than the first one. It’s almost like a bunch of filmmakers saw ABC’s of Death 1, saw the hit-or-miss nature of the shorts and said “I can do better than that”. It’s hard to pick a favorite letter for this one, but it might have to be Z. I’m really looking forward to watching the 3rd in the series. I hope the quality keeps up.
