Once again, this format proves as much a curse as a blessing. Yet the variety that makes the collection so uneven is also its best asset. Go to Full Review Jordan Hoffman Guardian 10/31/2014

Each film is too short to be really satisfying, but the iTunes shuffle-style format ensures you're rarely bored. You don't like the entry for the letter G? Don't worry, H will be here any minute. Go to Full Review Glenn Kenny RogerEbert.com 10/31/2014

What results is a survey of what's both glorious or at least intriguing about the directions in contemporary horror, and what's problematic as well. Go to Full Review Nicholas Bell IONCINEMA.com 09/06/2019

There are a few little masterful strokes here, though enjoying them feels a bit like trudging through a bargain bin. Go to Full Review James Clay Fresh Fiction 12/08/2018

Hopefully, in the future, the franchise continues to improve, but not many people are demanding an ABCs OF DEATH 3 other than hoards of Fantastic Fest-ers. Go to Full Review David Nusair Reel Film Reviews 05/04/2018

ABCs of Death 2 is, like its predecessor, riddled with pointless and somewhat interminable short films... Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Steven F. @SteveGotScored Mar 21 Just as crazy and fun as the first one! See more Tim M @tgmacman 07/28/2025 The series has graduated in terms of low-budget effects and creativity, but ABCs of Death 2 remains largely inconsistent. See more Tom T @TommyHalfPot 03/08/2025 I liked the first one and this one mostly landed for me.  Yeah, there’s always gonna be some duds, but the insanity and overall violence/gore felt ratcheted up here. See more Logan D @Greynomad38 09/24/2024 Twenty-six stories of weirdness and horror. Following a wonderful pop-up book opening sequence, the viewer will be subjected to a variety of films from 26 directors around the country. I'd say this one is more weird than the previous film. Overall, enjoyed most of them. My faves are D, E, H, and T.

Half of the short films were not even “horror”. And the other half weren’t memorable. There might be only 2 shorts that stood out to me. See more Read all reviews
