You thought Becky was brutal? Wait till you see The Wrath of Becky — a full-throttle action thriller packed with bloody vengeance, teen rage, and a delicious dose of dark humor. With Lulu Wilson returning as the unstoppable lead and Seann William Scott surprising everyone as a ruthless villain, this revenge movie levels up in all the right ways.
Becky Is Back — And She’s Pissed
Two years after the events of the first film, Becky is no longer just a teenage girl defending her home. She’s now a sharp, skilled, and emotionally hardened survivor living off the grid with her trusted dog, Diego, and her kind-hearted caretaker, Elena.
But peace doesn’t last long.
A group of far-right domestic terrorists — a violent militia known as the Noble Men — break into Becky’s home, murder Elena, and kidnap Diego. Big mistake. That moment flips the switch. What follows is an 83-minute blood-soaked rampage full of booby traps, brutal kills, and Becky’s personal brand of vigilante justice.
The Cast That Makes It Work
Lulu Wilson as Becky
If you thought she was scary before, she’s now a full-blown nightmare for bad guys. Lulu Wilson owns the screen in every frame — emotionally raw, physically fierce, and strangely funny. She nails the horror comedy tone the film leans into.
Seann William Scott as Darryl
Remember Stifler from American Pie? Forget him. Here, Seann William Scott transforms into Darryl — the calm yet menacing leader of the Neo-Nazis. His cold intensity brings a chilling new flavor to this thriller horror setup.
Denise Burse as Elena
Though her screen time is short, Elena’s death is the emotional trigger for the entire story. Her bond with Becky shows a softer side before everything goes up in flames.
A Genre Mashup That Works
The Wrath of Becky is a cocktail of genres: it’s a revenge movie, a home invasion thriller, a horror comedy, and even a satirical action film. It doesn’t just aim to shock with gore — though it absolutely does that — it also aims to entertain.
It’s part Home Alone, part John Wick, and part Rambo… if Rambo was a pissed-off teenage girl with a machete and a homemade flamethrower.
What Makes This Sequel Stand Out
1. Short and Savage
At just 83 minutes, this action-packed sequel wastes no time. Every scene pushes forward — whether it’s an intense interrogation or a satisfyingly brutal death.
2. Unique Visual Style
Directors Matt Angel and Suzanne Coote give it a comic book-meets-grindhouse feel, with stylized freeze-frames, chapter titles, and fantasy violence sequences straight from Becky’s imagination.
3. DIY Violence
Becky’s methods are clever, brutal, and over-the-top — think bear traps, spike bombs, arrows, grenades, and yes… a rocket launcher. It’s violence with flair.
Themes That Cut Deep
Teenage Rage and Grief
Under all the blood and chaos is a very real story about a teenage girl who’s lost everything — again. Her violence isn’t random; it’s personal.
Far-Right Extremism
The villains aren’t just cartoon bad guys. They reflect a rising trend in real-world politics, making the film’s satirical edge hit even harder.
Dog Loyalty
Let’s be honest — nothing gets us rooting for a hero faster than when her dog is taken. Diego’s kidnapping might just be the most emotional moment in this wild ride.
Is It Better Than the First Film?
This is subjective, of course. The original Becky had a raw, grounded survival feel. The Wrath of Becky, on the other hand, leans into stylized chaos. It’s faster, funnier, and way more explosive. If you enjoyed the original, you’ll likely love this exaggerated upgrade. If you want a gritty, R-rated revenge movie with a strong female lead, this is your jam.
Hints of a Third Film?
Absolutely. The final moments introduce a mysterious CIA agent played by Kate Siegel, suggesting that Becky’s key (from the first film) connects to something bigger. That ending is practically a teaser for Becky 3 — and we’re here for it.
Final Verdict: Should You Watch It?
✅ If you love brutal revenge movies
✅ If you enjoy action thrillers with edge and style
✅ If Lulu Wilson kicking fascist ass sounds awesome
✅ If you’re into gory, comic-book violence
✅ If you don’t mind your humor a little twisted
Then yes — The Wrath of Becky should be on your watchlist right now.
