What to Know

Critics Consensus

The Collection offers more grisly thrills and twisted humor than its predecessor; in other words, fun for genre fans, but unpleasant for anyone else.

Marjorie Baumgarten Austin Chronicle An exercise in pure sadism, The Collection moves at a clip that leaps over plot holes in its race to elicit fright. No weighty psychology or physical logic freights this enterprise. Rated: 1/5 Dec 7, 2012 Full Review Nicole Herrington New York Times Just a pointless exercise in sadism. Rated: 1/5 Nov 30, 2012 Full Review Adam Graham Detroit News People in Hollywood need to work and surely "The Collection" created a lot of jobs, but there must be a better way. Rated: F Nov 30, 2012 Full Review Patrick Cavanaugh The Wolfman Cometh Fully honors what made the first film unique while also taking the terror to shocking new heights. Rated: 4/5 Sep 20, 2023 Full Review Wesley Lovell Cinema Sight For all its foibles, The Collection is ultimately a slight improvement over its predecessor. Rated: 2/4 Dec 6, 2022 Full Review Allen Almachar The MacGuffin Some scenes not only ask us to suspend disbelief, they ask us to suspend rationality.

LipxGlossz G This movie has been my favorite since I was smaller, I think this puts me in a position where most "horror" movies aren't even scary anymore, if I'm being true. they often disappoint me. This movie is so well made and they weren't afraid to show us everything they've got! they gave us death party, artificial zombies, demon dogs, traitors, fire, and even more. although, I would say that this movie is NOT for the weak minded, but I would love a remake of this movie or more types like this. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 08/05/24 Full Review Toomuch P Pretty good. The brash, young American character, Billy, is obnoxious. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 06/30/24 Full Review Charles C While not being as fresh as the first, it still offers a lot with a good lead character, awesome traps, brutal gore effects and pretty satisfying ending. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 05/31/24 Full Review Audience Member Esta película simplemente es perfecta, al menos para mi, amo mucho esta como la segunda entrega y seria lindo que saquen una tercera película 😍🍿💖 Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/27/24 Full Review Jules N Une suite plutôt bien qui approfondi le concept du collectionneur. Cet opus est peut être moins stressant que son prédécesseur mais offre en compensation des décors assez bon. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 03/03/24 Full Review Audience Member Over 10 years old and I saw it on a whim without knowing anything about it Patrick Melton and Marcus Dustain write and direct with a few of the writers from the 'Saw' franchise A follow up to the Collector; it involved a vicious serial killer setting up elaborate traps in victims' homes, a robber got caught in the middle of it all and managed to escape This picks up after the first movie's events where the Collector eludes the authorities not knowing where he'll strike next Elena is the main focus here going to a party at a nightclub with her friends after her boyfriend cancels on her It's a fun night but quickly turns into a blood-fueled nightmare as the killer has concocted another set of deadly traps with Elena trapped inside It's up to a couple mercenaries and former thief, Arkin to infiltrate and rescue her The film was fun if forgettable The first movie I heard wasn't good it was more mean spirited Not a lot of big name actors except Christopher McDonald as Elena's father But this woman Emma Fitzpatrick is really good as Elena The kills are bloody and creative with some likable characters when it comes to the mercenaries A cool idea yet it feels like it's reaching too much like the Saw movies Rated 3 out of 5 stars 12/02/23 Full Review Read all reviews
