Six years after the first film this sequel improves upon the original while also bringing in new ideas to keep it fresh. The practical effects are improved and more inventive, the comedy element from the previous film is turned up to the extreme while also being more slapstick orientated (which weirdly works), the gore and violence are also ramped up while also being more shocking and even though it can feel like a bit of a retread of the last film it at least irons out the bumps in that film while also feeling slimmed down and more to the point which in turn makes it a more entertaining film. Bruce Campbell is even better this time round with his part of the script having several great moments, the score again is good and the ending is equally satisfying and intriguing. This is one of those rare sequels that improves upon an already great film.
