Analysis
A calm has finely descended on a small eastern european town after suffering a series of grisly murders that plagued their women folk. Normality continued up until the day an abandoned frozen meat van was found on waste ground by the local police force. Inside the van was a mutilated women, stripped of both her clothes and her life. The killer has returned to stalk the local prostitutes and is finding easy pickings amongst the ladies of the night. Assigned to the case is women hating Detective Polanski who has as much disregard for women as the killer himself.

Once again we are back in erotic hardcore horror territory where mainstream horror fans have no place and you would be ashamed if your mum found a copy under your mattress. Fantom Kiler 2 is unsurprisingly the follow-up to the first Fantom Kiler movie again under the helm of Polish Director Roman Nowicki. The thing that this film has in common with Fantom Kiler 1 is the way that the violence is portrayed. Death visits each female victim and humiliates them by stripping them naked, subjecting them to various tortuous techniques and then snuffs each out in a grim and degrading manner. It's obviously not real but the brutal imagery might not be to everyone's taste. You have been warned.

So to those that are still reading, what was the film actually like, well like I said about the first film, technically it is pretty solid with some great use of heavy primary colours and a funky little sound track that creates a pretty good ambiance during the opening credits and beyond. The acting is fairly nondescript and never distracts your attention away from the imagery. The one comment I would have to make regarding the assembly of the film would be the subtitles. Unfortunately we don't have the luxury of a dubbed sound track and instead have to read all the spoken words. The problem here is that the colour of the writing (white) blendes too easily into the background scenes causing some dialogue to be wasted on anybody other than a polish speaking person, which I ain't.

I guess this type of sub genre horror really has two main draws for it's audience. The first is the quality of the women and the second is the gore factor. As it happens most of the women are very appealing making for a little titillation before they have there throats cut which leads us nicely to the gore. The murder scenes are depicted as brutal with women being stabbed multiple times before they are left to die. Although surprisingly you don't get close ups of the aftermath like you would with some mainstream horror, you still get the required effect from the frenzied attacks. If this stuff turns you on then you will not be disappointed.

Key Area	Rating (out of 5)	Comment
Action	None	Non to speak of.
Thrills/ Tension		Tension surrounds the minutes running up to the death scenes especially when the killer is rambling on about how he is going to punish each one for their sin's.
Violence/ Gore		Expect death to be dealt in various ingenious ways including jump leads connected from a women's nips to a car battery, stabbing and slicing a victim in half from the crutch up.
Bare Flesh		The ladies only appear to undress and die, that's their role in this film, so don't expect any modesty. A couple of the scenes involve very intimate shots showing interaction with women's lower regions. Not fake and defiantly not subtle
Plot		The same plot as the first film. A killer on the loose doing what he does best, Killing! Not new and not original but that's not what this film is about.

Verdict This is a film that is aimed at a particular audience and was never made for mainstream audiences. At face value it is an offensive peace of work that has been made for the section of society that has a hard time telling reality from fiction. Then again it might be a carefully crafted movie that uses naked women and violence to put across a warning to those who live an immoral life and the consequences of such a life. You decide, but to me it was a movie that allowed me to see some good looking chicks in the nude, shallow but hey that's life.
