Noel Murray Los Angeles Times Sep 21, 2017
The basic concept behind this franchise remains sound: take some borrowed scares from professional haunters, add a few spooky twists, then leave the audience puzzling over how much that they saw actually happened. Go to Full Review

It is as if “The Houses October Built 2” looked at the first film and said to itself, “Everyone is too affable. How can we make everyone annoying?” Not since “The Walking Dead” heavily reedited Glen escaping the dumpster has visual media so backtracked Go to Full Review

Let's call The Houses October Built 2 what it is. It's a vacation reel, released as a found footage horror film under the barest of pretenses to trick people out of their money. Go to Full Review
Ryan Larson Ghastly Grinning Jun 24, 2020
It's a little light on scares, and the conclusion is a little bit of a cop out, but it does a lovely job calling out a part of the fandom that is growing and presenting questions that need to be asked. Go to Full Review

If the first film wasn't so damn effective this experience wouldn't have been as disappointing. Go to Full Review

B P @Bradster69 16 hrs ago Not Bad, but Not My Favorite See more Al P @BoosterAp Nov 22, 2025 What! 30 mins of getting into the story expecting it to be like the first film. Next 30 minutes was like watching a youtube video of aweful halloween scares. And then a rubbish ending..... See more Brandon F @RT47774314 Nov 14, 2024 genuinely the worst movie I've ever watched, I would of rather stared at a blank wall for two hours. See more Jason D @RT38460532 Oct 5, 2024 I think I liked this ending even more than the first. See more Steven R @RT03076860 Dec 5, 2023 I fell asleep during this movie so rewatched it to find out what I missed which ended up being absolutely nothing. See more Aaron D @Doober Sep 27, 2023 Because this movie is a disjointed careless mess, here is my disjointed careless review. Leaps worse than the first, which is saying a lot. This has got to be on the top 10 worst found footage horror films I've watched. It's never a good sign when the name of the movie isn't the same as the title card. Or the fact this movie is up under three different names on Amazon Prime. You'd better be Hellbent, if you think you will enjoy this. See more Read all reviews
