Benjamin W @Code70 13h I’ll give it a positive score, but I feel like the bits and pieces worked better than the movie as a whole. The individual scenes here are quite good. The premise is still scary here, and there are some genuinely unsettling moments that the film cleverly draws from its set-up. Also bought into the characters again, and cared enough about them to care enough about what was going on. But there are certainly some diminishing returns here. It’s the exact same premise handled very similarly, with little to no new ground covered. It also decided to follow the close relatives of the couple in the first one, which I found a rather odd thing to do, even though I liked them, because I feel like this series lends itself to other ideas way beyond this group of people. And I didn’t really like the ending. It didn’t ruin the movie or anything, but it just felt kinda… hollow, and even more anti-climatic than the first. But overall, I liked this enough. It entertained me for sure.

The security-camera setup creates some genuinely creepy moments, and the final act delivers solid tension. But knowing what to expect takes away some of the original's mystery and surprise. The pacing is slow, and the story feels more like an expansion than something truly fresh. Still, a decent sequel. See more J H @UpstateNYThriller Jul 22 8/10 Great prequel to the first one.
