His life at a real low point, Henry ends up taking a job in the port-a-potty business. Lead actor Neil Giuntoli ('Child's Play', 'The Shawshank Redemption') is no Michael Rooker - he can't match Rookers' level of intensity - but he does do alright in the role of glum loner Henry. Granted, as written and directed by Chuck Parello, it inevitably falls short when compared to a genuinely disturbing predecessor, but it works nevertheless.

But as the killing sprees increase in their depravity, it's more than Kai can handle. Initially, the two men work well together. Kai has never killed before, but he turns into a willing accomplice.
It is then that Henry introduces Kai to his life's work. He agrees to join Kai and on one of their first outings, they discover two squatters in a building that's been marked for fire. Henry learns that Kai has a side job as an arsonist-for-hire, setting up phony insurance scams to make money for their boss, Rooter (Daniel Allar). They take pity on the homeless drifter and offer him a room in the home they share with their emotionally fragile teenage niece, Louisa (Carri Levinson). Henry (Neil Giuntoli) takes a thankless job at a port-o-john company where he meets husband and wife, Kai (Ken Komenich) and Cricket (Kate Walsh). Henry II picks up where the original (Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer) left off.
