So many horror sequels get announced every day yet never come into fruition. So when Buddy Cooper announced a sequel to his 80’s cult favorite slasher Mutilator aka Fall Break (1984) after almost 40 years (!!!) we had every right to be skeptical, but by golly he promised us a Mutilator 2 and that’s what we got!

New movie features a returning cast of Ruth Martinez and Bill Hitchcock and some new fresh faces like Terry Kiser (Friday The 13th, Part VII), Damian Maffei  (The Strangers: Prey at Night) and Eva Hamilton (Death Kiss).

And now we have the first (surprisingly meta) trailer for you here via Fangoria, enjoy!

Trivia: Cooper seemingly want to keep the sequel streak going because he is producing another sequel, this time to a revived 70s franchise– Silent Night , Bloody Night 3 (not to be confused with a sequel to the awesome Silent Night Deadly Night 2).

Even though I’ve been clamoring for a new Slasher renaissance for couple of years now this news took me by surprise. Logically after 2018’s Halloween made record bank I expected some other horror franchises to rise from their graves. That turned out to be a more of a crawl as new Nightmare on the Elm Street is supposedly on the way (but still far off), Friday the 13th was tied up with legal troubles ’till just few days ago and Child’s Play’s Chucky decided to make a jump from silver screen to TV (with actually a really cool SyFy series).

With all that in mind the last Slasher I expected to return was 1984’s funny, crazy and gory The Mutilator aka Fall Break that we gleefully dissected right here on WM. But life is sometimes stranger than fiction and none other than the original creator/ co-director Buddy Cooper is back to write and direct The Mutilator 2!

Back to MUTILATE some more !

Now, how they plant to bring the antagonist back when he was chopped up in two I have no idea but things like that haven’t stopped other franchises before (Jason Goes To Hell comes to mind). As far as cast is concerned Ruth Martinez and Bill Hitchock are back, along with Terry Kiser (Friday the 13th Part VII, From a Whisper to a Scream) and Damian Maffei (The Strangers: Prey at Night, Haunt).

Movie is in full pre-production mode and they are gearing up to shoot in early 2022. We can’t wait to see how it turns out- you can never get enough of 80’s style Slashers in my book.

And for those who missed it the first time around here’s our full review again , and you can see some of the best kills right here :
