Decadent Evil II (alternate US title: Depraved Decadence), known in the UK as Decadent Evil Dead II, is the 2007 sequel to the 2005 film Decadent Evil. Plot Having fled from Queen Vampire Morella, sweet-natured vampire Sugar and her mortal boyfriend Dex take Marvin the homunculus to Little Rock, Arkansas in an attempt to resurrect Marvin's now deceased son, the vampire slayer Ivan Burroughs. Dex and Sugar get a job in a seedy club in order to steal some blood from the King Vampire, which will hopefully being Ivan back to life- but at the expense that he would return as a vampire. At first, Ivan is furious that Dex brought him back. However, Dex and Ivan must band together to save Sugar, who is being offered up as a sacrifice to the King Vampire. Reception Kim Newman criticized the sequel as "an even-cheaper sequel to their already-cheap lap-dancing vampire movie." Dread Central also panned the movie, classifying it as the type of bad Charles Band film that was a "total from the get-go where not much happens, the material feels like its being stretched and strained, and there’s virtually nothing of interest to keep you from feeling bored out of your skull."
