The Boondock Saints 2 (All Saints Day)

10 years after the initial release of the Boston cult classic The Boondock Saints, the sequel The Boondock Saints II: All Saints Day is set for theatrical release 10-30-09.

“The Boondock Saints II: All Saints Day is the sequel to the cult classic The Boondock Saints. It continues writer and director Troy Duffy’s saga of fraternal twins, the MacManus brothers. The two have been in deep hiding in the quiet valleys of Ireland, far removed from their former lives or modern technologies. When word comes that a priest has been killed by sinister forces in the tough underworld of Boston (the Yakavetta Crime Family), they return to mount a violent and bloody crusade to bring justice to those who must now suffer the consequences, with a new partner in crime (Clifton Collins Jr.) aiding them and FBI Agent Paul Smecker’s Protege (Julie Benz) in pursuit of them.”

The only negative to this sequel is the lack of Willem Dafoe, however newcomers Julie Benz, Judd Nelson, Peter Fonda, & Clifton Collins Jr. should easily makeup for the void left by Willem Dafoe.For those not familiar with The Boondock Saints, take a minute and enjoy the clip from the first film featuring the MacManus Brothers and the Funny Man, David Della Rocca.
