Fuck T @RT13857505 1 day ago So boring, so stupid, so repetitive, so cliche just a pointless pathetic cash grab! See more Alex B @AlexBioni Sep 28, 2026 Let Me Release the Kraken I like this one more than the first, but like the first, it takes its time before anything supernatural really happens. The first half is subtle, with doors moving, Hunter's crib toy moving, and Hunter seemingly seeing something. The acting feels authentic, although I don't know why all the men in these movies kind of suck. Even though the first half is lacking, it does a good job building tension. The second half is where this shines. Hunter getting lifted out of the crib is crazy, and everything that follows, especially the basement, gets wild. There is also a jump scare in the kitchen that got me. I like getting more hints about Katie and Kristi's past, which leads into the third movie. The house cameras are a great addition, giving us more views than the handheld footage in the first. I also like how the footage lets them prove what's happening and how this intertwines with the first movie.

I like this; it builds on the original’s dread by adding a whole family. What Worked: • Security cameras are a genius way to make you scan the background for creepy stuff. • Grayden really nails the exhausted, terrified mom energy. • Tying the demon to a dark family deal gave it heavy mythos I totally dug. The Friction: • The pacing really dragged early on with way too many false alarms. • The dad is so stubbornly ignoring the haunting it pulled me out. • The scares felt like recycled tricks without adding anything fresh. Verdict: I like this. Watch for slow-burn scares. Skip if slow pacing annoys you. See more Benjamin W @Code70 Sep 8, 2026 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. See more B P @Bradster69 Aug 31, 2026 Not Bad, but Not My Favorite See more Cinema S @cinema_sensei Aug 20, 2026 It expands the original's mythology while keeping the same slow-burn approach. 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 Read all reviews
