Synopsis
Picking up right where the original ended, Marybeth escapes the clutches of the swamp-dwelling killer Victor Crowley. After learning the truth about her family’s connection to the hatchet-wielding madman, Marybeth returns to the Louisiana swamps along with an army of hunters to recover the bodies of her family and exact the bloodiest revenge against the bayou butcher.

The A.V. Club
Hatchet II is distinguished both by a funky, frisky sense of humor, and gore of great quality and quantity. - 70
Variety
Outrageously over-the-top gore doubtless will scare off all but the heartiest genre aficionados. - 70
The New York Times
Swift and amusingly brainless, Hatchet II more than delivers on splatter expectations. - 70
The Hollywood Reporter
Hatchet II earns bragging rights with buckets of giddily over-the-top blood 'n' guts in sequences that are as gratuitous as they are amusingly ridiculous. - 50
Los Angeles Times
You don't go to this film for Sorkinesque repartee; you go for the world's longest chainsaw, or equal-opportunity genital mutilations, or very, very long bludgeonings. And here they are, in buckets. - 40
Time Out
It's a functional sequel, but with all that spirited slicing and dicing, the director could have at least broken a sweat. - 38
Chicago Sun-Times
You want gore, you get gore. Hatchet II plays less like a slasher movie than like the highlight reel from a slasher movie. - 30
Village Voice
This time out, Green is not as self-aware, devoting a solid hour of his film's 90-minute running time to pre-mayhem character development so witless and dull that Hatchet II might as well be "Friday the 13th, Part 14."
