OK so some people pan this sequel to one of my favorite movies. Yes its not perfect but i do hold it in regard as a decent follow up. Now i know other than the main protagonist this sequel has little to nothing to do with the last movie.
(Some people say Sands warlock character is different too, i say no because he states in the first film that Satan is his father, this is just him resurrecting his son from hell)
So Sands warlock character is brought back from hell by Satan, a woman wearing a rune stone of birth allows him to be reborn through her. He quickly learns that there are other rune stones to obtain around america. Once they are all united he will be able to bring his father forth from hell.
Elsewhere a community of Druidic folk know this time is upon them, as shown at the beginning of the film Christians attack the druids in the past believing them evil this is how the stones get scattered. The remaining elders feel they are to old to take on the task they choose one of their younger children to become a new druid champion.
The only way you can become a druid champion is to die then get brought back from the brink of death by ancient druid methods. So OK its a bit far fetched even by the originals time travelling standards.
So the warlock using a map made from his 'mothers' skin goes around collecting the rest of the rune stones he need to raise his father from hell as i said. some of the ways he kills the bearers of the runes is very creative. realizing the boy is not enough the druids also turn his girlfriend into a warrior too near the end of the film they get into a big fight.
You know i don't spoil endings often here so i'll just say they win obviously.
like i said before its not perfect but i like it as a sequel and for that reason i'm giving it a standard 3 stars out of 5
