So, this is a sequel to the 1998 film - simply titled _Vampires_. Now, while one wouldn't need to see the first movie to enjoy this, it definitely will help; there are no direct ties to the first movie, however the vampire mythology will make more sense.
I liked this film more than the original, but it still had flaws. The biggest improvement is the cast; with the exception of Natasha Wagner, everyone handles their role very well. Award for most improved part goes to Arly Jover as our lead female vampire, Una; she is a vast upgrade from Thomas Ian Griffith.
Now, while _Los Muertos_ can stand on its own two feet, it is basically a copy-paste of the first movie. Almost more of a remake rather than a sequel. What that means is if you dug the first movie, you should also like this. What I think this one does better is making our vampire hunters more genial. What's missing is Sheryl Lee or anyone who could hold a candle to how far she elevated that first movie.
So, yeah, pretty good. Better than part one. Light on the vampires, heavy on the action. A few cheesy moments.
I'd recommend this to anyone who likes vampire movies, but from the point of view of the hunters.
