The Collection Reviews
Fully honors what made the first film unique while also taking the terror to shocking new heights.
| Original Score: 4/5 | Sep 20, 2023
For all its foibles, The Collection is ultimately a slight improvement over its predecessor.
| Original Score: 2/4 | Dec 6, 2022
Some scenes not only ask us to suspend disbelief, they ask us to suspend rationality.
| Original Score: D+ | Jul 29, 2020
An overly bloody schlock fest.
| Original Score: C | Jul 18, 2020
The Collection offers a few surprises, nothing short of miraculous for a genre so bereft of originality
| Original Score: 3/5 | Oct 18, 2013
A cheap, loose remake of Aliens that substitutes rampaging hordes of xenomorphs with a gimp-masked kung-fu master.
| Original Score: 1/4 | Sep 29, 2013
If your diet requires you to ingest a certain amount of cinematic blood and mayhem every week, this will meet those needs, like a vitamin. Otherwise it's for collectors only.

Much splattery nonsense ensues -- some of it rather unpleasantly sadistic, and none of it particularly clever.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Jan 22, 2013
| Original Score: D+ | Jan 22, 2013
| Original Score: 2/4 | Jan 22, 2013
Most of the rampant gore effects are too sloppy to be interesting...
| Original Score: 1/4 | Dec 22, 2012
An exercise in pure sadism, The Collection moves at a clip that leaps over plot holes in its race to elicit fright. No weighty psychology or physical logic freights this enterprise.
| Original Score: 1/5 | Dec 7, 2012
Not scary but rather is just a disgusting exercise in gore, dismemberment and bloodletting.
| Original Score: 0/10 | Dec 6, 2012
Just buckets of the same old boring gore.
| Original Score: 1/4 | Dec 6, 2012
Comes off as a disappointment, failing to live up to its sequel potential by advancing the conflict and expanding murderous appetites in an exciting, imaginative manner.
| Original Score: C | Dec 4, 2012
The Collection is one of those horror films that really makes you sound like a deranged psychopath for recommending, but demands to be spread like a mind-controlling plague.
| Original Score: 7.5/10 | Nov 30, 2012
things quickly reach a level of silliness that fits more in a comedy or spoof than an actual horror film
| Original Score: 2/5 | Nov 30, 2012
The Collection is not going to win over gore film skeptics - and that's not necessarily a bad thing. It's an unapologetic celebration of splatter cinema.
| Original Score: 3/5 | Nov 30, 2012
The Collection never hits audiences in the stomach with any immediate sense of danger, and the dialogue and most of the performances feel entirely too campy for the movie to actually be taken seriously. Maybe that is the point, but I don't think so.
| Original Score: 1.5/5 | Nov 30, 2012
