Traveling through the countryside, a group of friends are involved in an accident that strands them in the middle of the woods with a psychotic family of backwoods killers using the territory as a hunting ground for their meat business and find a way to safety alive.
This was a disappointing if still watchable follow-up. Among its better elements here is the brutality and backwoods torture present here which comes about while the group is held captive. The entire second half here involves the group held captive and tortured in fine fashion, as the first encounters in the woods and the eventual trip back to their hideout manage to get quite fun with how they overwhelm and toy with the group with their tricks and mind-games daring them to try getting away. The idea presented here is that they get pleasure in how depraved and cruel they get towards the victims as they get tortured and brutalized in extreme fashion featuring all manner of slicing, carving, removal, and dismemberments taking place in excruciating form that all makes this one somewhat squirm-inducing tactics. As there's just enough with the investigating officer looking into everything to keep it interesting, this one has some fun factors here. There are some big problems with this one. The biggest issue here is the whole first half coming into this one being such a pain to get through it's nearly impossible to get into. The series of exploits here, especially with the group going through the backwoods in their quest to get away from the prying eyes of others looking for them, are nothing more than irritating with how the entire idea never goes anywhere. The series of scenes involving the group interacting with the sheriff, arguing with each other in the back of the car, or dealing with the hick family marching them captive through the woods that this one features are just plain boring and make this a challenge with all of the scenes making it immensely difficult to care about anyone here even with the situation getting far more dire and extreme. That aspect becomes even more pronounced in the finale where its extended running time is due to the group's extremely poor and unrealistic decision-making causing this to become so overblown it ends on a sour note. These are really the factors bringing this one down.
