It is oddly generic right where the film most desperately need to be distinctive.

| Original Score: 3/10 | May 7, 2025

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.

| Jul 27, 2013

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

| Original Score: 2/5 | Mar 30, 2013

| Original Score: 2/4 | Jan 22, 2013

| Original Score: 3/5 | Jan 22, 2013

| Original Score: D+ | 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
