Phobia 2 is the rare horror sequel that surpasses it's predecessor. Novice is a great story that uses elements that I have rarely seen in other horror films (Gods, Buddhism, etc). Ward and Backpackers are the weakest entries here although both are still pretty decent. Salvage is a nice addition with a good twist ending. In The End is my favorite tale and is another horror/comedy combo that has become a staple of the series. The story was actually really funny and creepy, a feat not achieved by many other films. It would make the movie worthy of a watch even if all the other stories weren't good (but thankfully they are).
