**_Sequel to “Burial Ground Massacre” is a case of sophomore slump_**
After surviving the Liberty Manor massacre in Rhode Island, Adrianna (Chelsea Vale) is viewed as a sort of local celebrity. Her wild child friend from college (Hannah Dannelly) invites her out to a rural vacation home to party with friends and recover. Unfortunately, Tina has an unhealthy interest in the massacre and, worse, the Wampanoag mafia chief might no longer be in custody. Havoc ensues.
“Damon’s Revenge” (2022) adequately relays what happens to the survivors of the film from the year before, but you won’t find much elaboration on the title character. Disregarding his appearing in a recap, Damon doesn’t surface until the very end. I was hoping for details on why he likes to torment Indian lasses in his torture chamber, as well as why the Wampanoag mafia hired him (no doubt because he’s an effective killer, huh?).
Another issue is that this isn’t as ambitious as the first movie, but at least it’s a little creative with the hackneyed cabin-in-the-woods plot. The nudity is way toned down and there are no torture chamber sequences (not that I care about either). The women aren’t as notable either. Still, the voice dubbing has been fixed (compared to the prior film) and Chelsea Vale makes for a serviceable protagonist, plus there are enough interesting things to keep one’s attention, like the Wampanoag chief convincing an Indian deputy to do such-and-such.
The film runs 1 hour, 29 minutes, and was shot in Cromwell, Connecticut, which is in the heart of the state just south of Hartford on the Connecticut River.
GRADE: C+
