The plot takes place two years after the first film, as a batch of planted Critter eggs begin to hatch and resume their carnivorous appetite upon the town once again.

Rotten Tomatoes reports that 38% of 13 surveyed critics gave the film a positive review; the average rating is 4.7/10.[9] Film critic Roger Ebert gave the film 1 out of 4 stars: “It lacks all of the style and sense of fun of the original Critters (1986) and has no reason for existence”.[10]
Discussing the film several years after its release, writer David Twohy said in an interview with Starlog that “Critters 2 is something I’m still not terribly pleased is on my résumé”.
I loved this series when I was a kid renting them on vhs
