Snake Eyes 2

About This Movie

So, Snake Eyes 2 from '87 is this wild ride through jealousy and obsession. You’ve got David, this ad exec, whose paranoia really spirals out of control when his wife finds solace in the arms of a rugged cop. The film balances a kind of surreal fantasy vibe with a gritty undertone, making it hard to tell what's real and what's just in David's head. The atmosphere is thick with tension and the pacing keeps you on edge, especially with the practical effects that create some intriguing visual moments. Performances are a mixed bag, but they kinda add to that chaotic flavor of the whole thing. It’s definitely got a niche appeal for those into off-kilter narratives.

This film has not been widely circulated, making it somewhat of a rarity in the fantasy genre from the late '80s. It was released on VHS but has had limited re-releases in other formats, contributing to its scarcity in collector circles. Interest tends to spike among genre enthusiasts who appreciate its offbeat narrative and practical effects, making it a unique piece for those delving into the more obscure corners of cinematic history.
