Tagline: It was an urban legend that started it all. Now it continues on the Alpine University campus...
Plot: Amy (Jennifer Morrison), Travis (Matthew Davis) and Graham (Joseph Lawrence) are student filmmakers who would love to make it big in Hollywood. But first they've got to survive their last semester at Alpine University, a renowned film school where the competition is killer—and someone is killing the competition.At Alpine, one senior student will be awarded the prestigious Hitchcock Award for best thesis film, virtually guaranteeing the winner a film career in Hollywood. Down-to-earth documentary film student Amy Mayfield wants to take a crack at the Hitchcock. During a chance meeting with Reese (Loretta Devine), the new campus security guard, Amy is inspired by the story of an urban legend at Pendleton University, Reese's former place of employment. Taking a break from documentaries, Amy decides her thesis film will be a fictional, psychological thriller about those contemporary tall tales known as urban legends. After writing the script, storyboarding the shots and casting her actors, Amy and her crew of fellow students prepare to roll camera—even though Vanessa (Eva Mendes), Amy's boom operator, is more interested in girls than rolling sound; Simon (Marco Hofschneider), her cameraman, is a womanizing, chain-smoking European; and Stan (Anthony Anderson) and Dirk

Other than that there's great direction, a passable script, a great cast, some ok gore, a few(false) scares....one seems taken right out of Black Christmas, some cheesy plot twists, a wicked score and an ending with a cameo by Rebecca Gayheart that will bring a smile to your face. Better than the first which is a rare thing.--Ian Button (Diabolical-Dominion.com)
This standard slasher follow-up treads pretty closely to being by-the-book with the expected cliches, jokey dialogue and 'pretty' teenage cast; but at least it's a tad better than the original and has slightly better death scenes. ... Aimed directly at its teenage target audience, this isn't that impressive, to be certain; but it's a bearable enough time despite some lame plot twists...  -- (TheVideoGraveYard.com)
An overdone (though not as much as its predecessor), derivative, silly, poorly planned, ninety-nine minute result of pointed marketing research. And leave Hitchcock the hell alone! 27/100--Jack Witzig (ColdSpot)
