A sequel that delivers!!

Unlike most people i thought that the first Mimic was pretty decent. It was a big budget B movie that was pretty fun. The same thing can be said about Mimic 2. Dont let the fact that it went direct to video stop you from renting it(IT had a 10 million dollar budget). This time the story revolves around Remy(Mira Sorvinos friend from the first film). She is a teacher at a school and pretty soon people she knows start to turn up dead. Mimic 2 has alot going for it. First off the cinematography and the set desing are really cool. Man did the lighting really add to the creepiness of the film. I also have to give much credit to the editor of this film. Running at just 82 minutes the film runs at a very crisp pace. This helps the film because instead of focusing on the some of the obvious plot holes, the viewer is sucked in to this rollercoaster ride of a movie. This film wont win any oscars, but it will give you 82

minutes of pure
