Tales from the Hood 2 is a 2018 American horror-comedy anthology film directed by Rusty Cundieff and Darin Scott and executive-produced by Spike Lee.The film is the sequel to Cundieff and Scott's 1995 horror anthology Tales from the Hood.The segments "Good Golly", "The Sacrifice", and "Robo Hell" were directed by Rusty Cundieff. The first involving corrupt cops is routine and obvious; the second is a unique take on child abuse that is creative and fairly creepy; the third involving vengeful voodoo dolls is at times shocking, at times corny, but eerie and crafty in its own right; the fourth about gang violence and rehabilitation is highly imaginative and something to marvel at; the film's unique amalgam of horror and social commentary isn't always on target, but the special effects are convincing, and the performances rock solid, making this a fairly impressive showing for all those involved. The much-ballyhooed social commentary is obvious and insulting.

Three more bone-chilling tales that include a vengeful wooden Native American, a monstrous blob in a lake, and a hitchhiker who wants revenge and will not die. We … A somewhat suprise ending was well done and this remains as one of the best horror films of the "teen slasher" filled 90's genre. 3 out of 6 found this helpful A band of Knight's Templars, on a mission to the new world, find themselves being hunted by unknown Demons. The other two stories which mostly dealed with racism and corruptness were good although predictable and kind of slow but were still entertaining. I am sorry but the only thing i could do while i was watching this film was laugh, and not in a good way like with Blood Feast, i was laughing in a way that was saying that it was one of the worst films that i ever saw.

The "good" is that the stories are basically interesting and feature good sound and neat visuals. Before anyone says that i am racist i want you to know that i am not. It has three urban youths being told a bunch of purportedly "horrifying" tales by a creepy funeral director (Clarence Williams III). Imagine if all the black people were villains and all the white people the good guys? I had to wait more than 10 years to finally see this one. 9 out of 13 found this helpful He's then compelled by the spirit of the politician to bring the murderers to his grave.
The fourth story is about a killer who agrees to participate in a behavioral modification program in order to get early release from prison. Maybe it's because the cast is mostly black, and the stories revolve around inner city, black youth? It think it was supposed to be a piece of CRAP, which in that case it succeeded greatly.
While on a road trip from a long weekend at the Terlingua cookoff, four lifelong friends decide to veer off road and venture into a small West Texas town known as Marfa.

The second story's about a little boy who shows up to school with bruises he claims he got from a monster in his home. This movie makes every white guy in existence a bigot/racist, but would that not be the view of this director. This movie was disappointing on so many levels. An interesting, at times totally innovative take on the horror film genre. Tales From the Hood, another horror anthology film dripping with EC comics-style ghoulishness, strings together four stories told by a wild-haired, macabre funeral director (Clarence Williams III) to a trio of gangbangers seeking their missing drug stash in a mortuary. Although there is some run of the mill plots to some of the stories, others show a surprising amount of originality and creativity.
A white supremacist politician haunted by forces of injustices past highlights the third story, while the fourth focuses on a gangbanger undergoing frightening behavior modification. Weak anthology black "horror" film. A tribute to movies like "Dr. Terror's House of Horrors" and "Tales from the Crypt", "Tales from the Hood" presents some horror vignettes centering on life in the black ghetto. I did not like the fourth story.
