Ghoulies II is the fun that the first movie should have been. "Good" might be too strong a word for this one, but it's a definite course correction for the series, 'cause unlike the first Ghoulies, I actually enjoyed my time with this one. Final rating:★★★ - I liked it. Would personally recommend you give it a go.
