10 Greatest Easter-Themed Horror Movies
10. Critters 2: The Main Course
The killer space porcupines come back for their first sequel
in Critters 2: The Main Course when the country folk of Grover’s Bend mistake
some rather grotty-looking Krite eggs leftover from the first film for Easter
eggs and distribute them throughout the town as part of its annual Easter egg
hunt. Didn’t these goddamned bumpkins learn anything from the original
Critters?
Apparently not because soon enough a new generation of Krites are hatching and killing people left, right and centre yet again including a dude dressed as the Easter Bunny who rudely interrupts an Easter sermon while being mauled by Critters.
Granted, Critters 2 isn’t the greatest horror out there but it’s all good, silly fun if you don’t take it too seriously. And it’s still a better movie than Critters 3: You Are What They Eat and Critters 4: They’re Invading Your Space … even if that isn’t saying much.
