Horror movies have a unique ability not only to approach thoughtful concepts with deep emotional and visual catharsis, but also expand on those concepts in well executed follow up entries. The horror sequel landscape is rich terrain, made up of as many hidden gems as it is high profile classics.

Some cult horror favorites are underestimated by mainstream audiences, while the merits of others go overlooked even by die hard horror fans.

Secretly Awesome Horror Sequels to wet your appetite for exceptional cinematic terror. Psycho 2. Anyone old enough to have rented movies at Blockbuster probably remembers seeing the cover of Psycho II, III, or IV on a shelf next to Hitchcocks original masterpiece and rolling their eyes in abject terror. How could anyone even think of making a sequel to Psycho, let alone three And how could any of those sequels possibly be worth watching The Psycho sequels may not be for everyone, but they do offer some intriguing takes on the inner workings of Norman Bates who is played by Anthony Perkins in every movie, thankfully. Psycho II is a particularly worthwhile entry. Anthony Perkins first return performance as Norman Bateshowever wooden at timesis quite effective within the 2. Visually, it strikes a crafty balance of hearkening back to the iconic visuals of the first film and creating its own unique atmosphere. Psycho II may never reach the horrific heights of Hitchcocks original, but it does stand on its own two feet. Brooklyn 99 Season 3 Episode 12 here. The Fly IIThis 1. David Cronenbergs masterpiece of body horror is not a particularly great movie. For the most part, its not even a very good one. But the imaginative work of Chris Walas, the creature effects mastermind of the first film and director of the sequel, deserves all the praise in the world. The Sheep Thief Full Movie In English. The Fly IIs premise is a bit convoluted and sillyfeaturing the son of Seth Brundle Jeff Goldblums character from the first film slowly morphing into another Brundlefly under the control of a corporation that wants to use his fathers telepod technology for profitbut the special effects, along with the films exciting third act, make The Fly II a secretly awesome horror movie. Brundlefly 2. 0 is a grotesquely electrifying creation, as are the other deformed telepod monsters featured throughout the film. For todays CGI berated cinema goers, the ingenious practical effects of The Fly IIs caliber will always be a rare, rare treat. A Nightmare on Elm Street 2 Freddys Revenge. The first Nightmare on Elm St. The movies plot is often criticized for its deviation from the series well established dream logic, opting instead for a plot that involves protagonist teen Jesse Walsh Mark Patton slowly being possessed by Freddy so the killer janitor can terrorize the real world. Jesses possession by Freddy has been frequently explored as a metaphor for the protagonists closet homosexualitya reading backed up by multiple scenes in the movie, including an encounter with a gym teacher at a gay bar and a subtly homoerotic interaction with a male friend in his bedroom. The mere fact that the main character is male evokes homoerotic themes, as the role would almost certainly go to a final girl in most other horror movies. Like its homoerotic undertones, Freddys Revenge demands to be remembered as a secretly awesome entity. Rob Zombies Halloween IIIts not necessarily better than the original Halloween II, but Rob Zombies 2. Zombies second outing with the franchise takes an unflinching look at the brutal aftermath of Michael Myers rampage in the first film. His surviving victimsMichaels sister Laurie, Sheriff Lee Brackett, and Lees daughter Anniefind themselves all living together in a feeble attempt at some semblance of a normal life after their experiences, but the emotional trauma is every bit a stumbling block as Michaels brutal return. No one knows how to subject an audience to realistic terror in a surreal setting quite like Rob Zombie, and Halloween II delivers relentless scenes that carry a shockingly sobering emotional weight. Halloween III Season of the Witch. The third entry in the mother of all slasher series is often overlooked because its the only Halloween movie that doesnt focus on franchise antagonist Michael Myers, but Halloween III Season of the Witchs clear narrative break from the rest of the series is the very thing that makes it secretly awesome. Not only does Halloween III leave Michael Myers out of the picture, it separates itself from the slasher genre entirely, instead offering a supernatural sci fi plot that dives deep into the mythology around the holiday from which the series gets its name. Tom Atkins turns in one of many legendary b horror performances as a doctor who stumbles upon a strange mass murder plot involving androids and witchcraft. Yes, its every bit as insane as it sounds, but Halloween IIIs campy story proves to be quite the provocative treat. Friday the 1. 3th Part IIBefore Jason found the hockey mask, he roamed the woods in a burlap sackand believe it or not, he still looked terrifying. Friday the 1. 3th Part II is stuck in a weird spotjust after the original film, where spoiler alert he ends up not being the central antagonist at all, and before he donned the hockey mask and became the most visually iconic slasher villain of all time. Fortunately, Part II encapsulates everything fans have come to love about the summer camp horror series a helpless cast of horny youth, relentlessly drawn out foot chases, brutal death after brutal death, all without the visual boost of the iconic mask. The greatest thing about the Friday series is that theres something to enjoy in pretty much every movie including the more absurd entries like Part VIII Jason Takes Manhattan or Jason X, but nothing beats the simplicity of Part II. Omen III The Final Conflict. Watch Z For Zachariah Online Hollywoodreporter on this page. As far as demonic kid horror movies go, The Omen isnt among the greatest The Bad Seed, The Exorcist but its also far from the worst Children of the Corn and its sequels. Its direct follow up, Damien Omen II, is little more than a rehash of the original. Omen III The Final Conflict, on the other hand, comes at the son of satan premise from a terrifyingly different anglecasting the always excellent Sam Neill as an adult Damien in U. S. politics, attempting to obstruct the second coming of Christ. The Final Conflict is really just an OK movie. It has a few visual high points that capture the creepy religious atmosphere of the first Omen, but Neills relentlessly ominous breakout performance is the thing that really makes it worth watching. Dr. Phibes Rises Again. Any art director will tell you that The Abominable Dr. Phibes is an art directors movie, and its Egypt themed, equally campy sequel is no different. Dr. Phibes Rises Again is an ultra stylized horror romp featuring Vincent Price in the twilight of his career, but undoubtedly no worse for wear.
