Rating:


Some orphaned Crites are still kicking around and Charlie (Don Keith Opper) tries to warn some kids nearby about them and how they got here and gives one of them a crystal and tells them if it is green lit it means that they are nearby and he will rescue them but however, the rest thinks that he is nuts.
However, they visit some family members at an urban tenement the Crites reside as their eggs are lying around there that was owned by an eccentric resident.
They suddenly end up hatching there and feasts on anything around there while everyone tries to save their lives from them but more and more seem to attack from all around the building whever they try to trap them out as they end up eating through doors and walls.
Will Charlie be able to rescue them all before they are all feasted on these flesh eating beasts?


Oh god what happened??? The previous sequel was making you want more but I didn't expect it to be this lame and low key. The comedy is bad and so is the horror too.
The plot sucked the most as if the write ran out of an idea after watching the previous film as I nearly fell asleep watching it and hoping that it will be over soon.
The story mostly took place at an apartment with the Crites invading it and people trying to get away from them. Really folks nothing special here.

The acting is very cheesy and corny but some did an okay job with it. Aimee Brooks seems to pull off playing an intelligent teen in the film.
We also have a young Leonardo DiCaprio in his first movie and shows some good energy and enthusiasm with his part. He probably wanted to forget his work in this film without a doubt since he moved on to much better projects.
Two twin siblings Christian and Joseph Cousins shared the bill with this film but hey Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen did in Full House. However, it's pathetic they did that for whatever reason. Both were charming still.
Diana Bellamy
was a little too melodramatic in her role but still can seem like an interesting character
William
Dennis Hunt played a good landlord prick in the film as you really want to despise him.
Don Keith Opper
was way too much this time and wasn't impressive at all.

Crites are sqaushed and cut in half

Kristine Peterson really is in sad shape with directing this turkey as she makes the story not at all scary and tries to be more funny with it but she misses big time.
There's an interesting moment with Leonardo DiCaprio reaching for a frisbee where there's branches and a hole beneath it as he really tries to get it and you almost jump when suddenly Don Keith Upper jumps out and acts crazy about Crites coming into town and how they got here as the only good thing about this movie is the flashbacks.
We see a near jumping moment with supporting actor Geoffrey Blake in a laundry room when he tries to check out a Crite when it's too dark to see and it attacks him.
Diane Bellamy
was good acting outrageous towards John Calvin by grabbing him and telling him about the creatures she discovered.
There are also funny moments like a Crite answering the phone when William Dennis Hunt is trying to talk and reacts strangely after he hears the Crite talk and shows a funny reaction too.
There's also good shots of them foodfighting too, watching TV and spinning into a ball and going at full speed.
We see a nice and touching dialogue with DiCaprio explaining how his father died towards Aimee Brooks.
Frances Bay
was a one mean mother by hacking a Crite with a meatcleaver.
There's a perfect shot on child actor Cousins with a Crite spinning into a ball about to attack him and Upper jumping in the way to grab it and jumping off a building while doing this.

The music is very corny and cheesy by David C. Williams like he ripped it off from an episode of Tales from the Crypt.

Annie: We rally have to go now.
Josh: Give my regards to Mars.
Charlie: Don't be so quick. You're not as smart as you think you are.

Rosalie: Hey, you got the elevator fixed, Frankie.
Frank: Hey, not for you, Rosie. There's still a one-ton load limit.

Marcia: I still don't know what the hell is going on here.
Mr. Menges: Ain't no rats, you can be sure of that.
