PSYCHOLOGICAL DOODOO.......2005-11-15
I saw Ripper I and don't remember a whole lot about it, so in going into RIPPER 2, I was a little leary about what to expect. If you haven't seen the first Ripper, this one will probably be confusing anyway. A different actress takes over the role of Molly and there's so much plot twisting and lack of cohesion that this movie is merely a dull waste of time. The trend of overabundant lesbian sex is once again used as padding and the murders are staged so haphazardly no terror is induced. The acting by all is really pretty bad. Let's hope we don't have a RIPPER 3, although its ambiguous ending suggests we might be burdened with it. This reviewer will not go for a third run though!

Ridiculous Waste of Art Supplies.........2005-10-01
Boring.
Cheap.
It makes no sense.
Skip this mess, its not worth the effort..
Drowning In Good Intentions.......2005-04-02
I admit it. I'm a sucker for cover art featuring pretty girls, so I was immediately attracted to the DVD: 'Haunted From Within.' I read the header, "Based on the legend of La Llorona." Always fascinated by anything dealing with mythology, folklore and urban legend, I thought incorporating the La Llorona legend of Mexico into the plot of a horror film sounded like a great idea. I was pretty much hooked at that point.
As for the movie: What we have here is a case of an excellent original concept burdened with a low budget and incredibly mediocre performances. The sets are dark and drab, the acting stiff and uninspired. There appears to be no chemistry between the cast members, it's like a bad rehearsal where the only concern is delivering your lines correctly.
On the positive side: The lovely Rina Fernandez does an admirable job in the lead role as the tragic and haunted Anna. The movies best moments are when Anna is alone on camera drifting back and forth between the material world and the spiritual domain of La Llorona. This is where the story becomes authentic and disturbing. The image of the grieving La Llorona is well done and leaves a lasting impression.
Definitely not a classic, but because of the films connection with an ongoing urban legend and the presence of Rina Fernandez it has the potential of attaining some level of cult status.
1 Star for the Cover Art, 1 Star for Originality & 1 Star for Rina Fernandez
More than a thriller.......2005-01-23
This movie is right up there with flicks like The Shining and The Exorcist. It's brillant the way it combines an old folklore and puts a modern twist to it. I also liked that this movie had a "who done it" feel to it with a surprising ending, just like The Sixth Sense. But I won't dare watch this movie alone or in the dark.
