Why did director Dave Payne opt to revisit the "Reeker" movie and universe in this manner, is simply beyond my comprehension. This movie was nothing more than a re-write of the first movie, as everything shown in "No Man's Land: The Rise of Reeker" was essentially shown in the 2005 movie "Reeker". If you have seen the 2005 "Reeker" movie, then you have essentially already seen the 2008 semi-prequel. Just change the backdrop for the storyline and the setting, but otherwise it is the same thing. The only noticeably deviation from the 2005 storyline is that we are given insight into the history of the Reeker being and how it came into being. Aside from that, then it is about a group of people trapped at a deserted diner, stalked by a horrible killer whom is followed by the stench of death. Similar to the 2005 movie then the acting in "No Man's Land: The Rise of Reeker" was adequate, and people were doing good enough jobs with their individual roles. Just don't expect anything on a Shakespearian level. Again, like in the first movie, the creature design on the Reeker being was quite good and had a good amount of interesting details. However, having an impressive creature just wasn't enough to lift up the rest of the movie. As "No Man's Land: The Rise of Reeker" was essentially just a re-write of the first movie, then it ended up as being somewhat of a less than mediocre movie. And as such, I am rating this 2008 movie a mere four out of ten stars.

The first film was your good usual twist and turn psycho killer horror thriller, and this straight to DVD sequel is just as good, if not a tiny bit better. The film opens with the origins of how the Reeker came to be, there used to be a man, or the Salesman (Michael Robert Brandon) in the 1970s known as the Death Valley Drifter, and there is a part when he gets caught and chops his own hand off. He was caught by Sheriff McAllister (David Stanbra) in his shack filled with heads, limbs and body parts (kind of like Leatherface or the real life Ed Gein), and he was put to death in the gas chamber, but his spirit managed to get out. Then it moves to present day, where Sheriff McAllister (Robert Pine) will be retiring and having his son Deputy Harris McAllister (Michael Muhney) replace him. Then three thieves show up, one is dying but Binky (Desmond Askew) is looking forward to getting his hands on the money they stole from a casino, and Alex (Stephen Martines) wants to see his ex-girlfriend, waitress Maya (Mircea Monroe). Soon they realise that they are in danger from a mysterious ripply serial killer with a hook for a hand wearing a gas mask, the Reeker, a ghost working for Death. Each victim is warned almost by a horrible smell coming from the killer, hence the name Reeker, and when each die you see their pasts flashing before you. It is apparent though that all that did die were meant to, seeing how also they are trapped by an invisible wall, you see the logical way they are killed off in the end, and there is no Reeker at all. Also starring Lyne Odums as Psychiatrist, Valerie Cruz as Allison, Lew Temple as Hitchhiker and Ben Gunther as Reeker. I can't remember there being much humour in the predecessor, but this one has some good moments of humour in amongst the good gore and rough death scenes, and a creepy killer to go with it, not bad at all. Worth watching!

The writer/director/thief of NMLTROR "borrowed" heavily from I-had-no-clue-I-wuz-snuffed movies like "Stay", "Identity" "Dead End", "Point Blank", "The Sixth Sense", "The Others", "Carnival of Souls" but also the "Final Destination" series when he made the first movie, so it's no wonder that this prequel runs into the same kind of trouble as all the "Final Destination" sequels did: we already know the outcome. The main characters all dead i.e. dying. The whole it-was-all-a-dream shtick dates back all the way back to "The Wizard of Oz", so indirectly even that movie is one of the dozens of films that served as "inspiration" (i.e. source of thievery). Basically what I'm saying is, if you're looking for originality here, just forget it. But if you're a horror film fan, you must have already given up on that anyway. (You need to watch between 50 to 100 horror films before you find one that contains some new idea.) Admittedly, effort was made if not exactly to circumvent this problem than at least to make the movie as unpredictable as possible – within its predictable and limiting parameters. Hence the ending with two actual survivors this time around, plus the fact that Reeker actually gets killed. It's interesting though that the director lets the new sheriff survive, of all people. Isn't this the same guy who told us that he gets horny when he watches dolphins mate? Was the director trying to tell us something about himself, perhaps? Hm. But then comes the next unoriginal plot-twist i.e. premise-theft: new blood has been sought out by Evil to be trained as a serial-killer and then later as Reeker's replacement. Something tells me we've already had that idea in the supremely idiotic "Saw" series. Having a kid become a new killer is pretty daft. When is Reeker 3 going to be recruited, when he is 3 months old? In a strange way, the writer/director/thief HAS managed to create a first in cinema, although perhaps unintentionally. Namely, "Reeker" features Reeker 2 (i.e. this movie's kid), while "Reeker 2" aka NMLTROR features Reeker 1, the original Reeker. I don't think we've had that before. But because this is a prequel, it could be argued that this is "Reeker 0". Does this make sense to you? NMLTROR is a rather silly horror film, with several inane reactions by the characters, and even dumber dialog, and yet it is an improvement over the first part, which was even less original and kind of dull.

I have not seen the first one yet, I had no idea what the plot was about this movie, I did not even see a Trailer for this before giving a watch. Somehow I ending up having this is movies collection. This movies as some kind of Supernal force that is killing people. This movie did have a great nasty Gory start , Which I really liked, there were some descent gory scenes in the rest of the movie. This dose get really odd and really Confusing, which makes scratch your head, Saying what the hell is going on and some of the scene can seem really funny at times. I also enjoyed the twist at the end of the movie, which I think really well done. I going to give this movie 5 out of 10

Wow this has to be one of my contenders for the worst movie of the year. It is that bad. I haven't seen the first one. I didn't know there was a first one before watching it, but this movie will not make me rush to the store to find the first part. It's one of the lamest scripts plus some pathetic acting and a bad director. The dialogue is the worst i have heard lately. Just when you think that it can not get worse, one of the characters starts explaining how he likes it when fish make love. I know the dialogue and the acting are not so important for the type of movie that NOLROTR is, but on there is nothing that i can say was even mediocre here. Don't think it's because i hate the genre, actually there are some cheaply made, not so well written horror movies i really like. No really, even the twist at the end couldn't save it for me. So my recommendation is not to waste your time, unless you are a really big fan of the first movie, or the director, or any of the actors. Although i highly doubt it you will remain a fan after watching this.

I remember liking the original REEKER - a derivative B-movie but one with bite - so I thought I'd give this undistinguished sequel a chance. I wish I hadn't. The talent behind the first film has disappeared so what we get in its place is a dull and predictable B-picture with little to recommend it. Things kick off with a mini-prequel explaining the Reeker's origins - a particularly pointless bit of screen time, I have to say - before moving into the usual forgettable territory. It's cop versus robbers, except the two sides have to work together when the Reeker himself shows up, looking for blood. This is the kind of film that lazily throws in stock CGI explosions and some mild gore here and there in a bid to retain the audience's attention. Efforts are in vain, because the writing is so below par and the acting noticeably bad; no actors stand out from the crowd here, all are equally poor. The CGI effects seem worse than the ones in the original and never for the moment is there any real suspense or excitement. It's just below par all the way.

According to writer/director Dave Payne's Reeker films, 'Death' employs the spirit of executed serial killer The Death Valley Drifter to act as a 'soul taker', a being with a pungent stench who exists in the instant between life and death and who torments those trapped there, killing them in a fashion that mirrors their real life demise. If that makes any sense to you at all, then a) you'll probably enjoy this film, and b) perhaps you ought to seek some kind of professional help, this clearly being utterly derivative clap-trap, yet another logic-free scary movie with a supposedly 'clever' twist (so clever that it was done in the first film, and in many, many other films before that). As with the original Reeker, the only good bit occurs within the first few minutes, with the bulk of the film consisting of a series of puzzling supernatural occurrences which are resolved in a manner that only the most unseasoned of horror film viewers could possibly perceive as innovative.

The acting and direction of the film in the beginning was horrible. I watched the world premiere of Reeker when it came out when the director was there and to be honest i loved it. I thought it had a very unique and original ending. *spoilers ahead* Until i found out that it was a completed rip off of the movie Dead End. In the movie dead end a family goes on a road trip has a "near miss collision" and then they are stalked by a killer all to find out that they didn't have a near miss but had a head on collision and it was all a dream. Sound familiar reeker fans? This premise just like the whole They are the same person "twist ending" i.e. Fight club, hide and seek etc. where everyone has to steal it. Dead end, Reeker, The I Inside, Stay, and the Reeker 2 Even reekier all have the same exact ending and reeker does it the worst. Dead end was filled with gruesome kills and funny awkward moments making it enjoyable, The I Inside probably my favorite of the bunch cause it adds a little something extra to the ending, Stay because its a beautiful trippy direction that the film has. So save yourself the time and watch any of those titles over this one.

This film first appeared to be a straightforward cops and robbers movie. Three guys rob a casino and manage to land at the same gas station/cafe as a father (Robert Pine) and son (Michael Muhney), one a retiring sheriff, and the other the new man in town, were eating. Then things got weird, as one man gets his head practically torn of, but was still able to walk and talk, another man, who was burning a car, is also walking around, and, I kid you not, some legs without a body were running. Are we in the Twilight Zone or something? But, just when things couldn't get any stranger, we come to the ending where there appears to be a logical explanation to everything we saw. So what were we watching for the last hour? A soul-catcher reborn or someones imagination run amok. It was an interesting film with just the right amount of gore, a lot of laughs, and enough to keep you interested. Well, not totally. Mircea Monroe and Valerie Cruz were nice eye candy, but they could have made it more interesting.
