It's stupid to bring back the cast EXCEPT for the most important character. If they couldn't make everyone return, they should've changed the whole cast.
It was decent, but just decent imo. Samara Weaving (who isn't coming back for 2) was probably the best thing about the movie.

The first one is great, probably the 2nd best Netflix original after the Ted Bundy movie. Samara Weaving is amazing in it.

That little N logo usually denotes utter abysmal forgettable trash, yes.
But this was rather good.

Wtf how. She’s the fucking babysitter, the movie only works because she’s in it.

The second one or the first?
Part 2 doesn’t release until next month.

Usually Netflix movies are trash with a few exceptions. This is one of the exceptions.

What the what? No samara? And the first set up a sequel with her so well. Maybe she just didn't want to do it?

None of them.
As a Netflix subscriber I shall now pirate it off TPB as is my god given right.

Did they just tease Samara Weaving at the 2:05 mark?

Just finished watching this, that third act was a fucking wreck.
The only explanation that i would i accept at that point it would be that everything in the sequel was hallucinations from Cole and that's why his counselor it's also a psychiatrist.
I loved the first movie, this was really disappointing.

This was bad compared to the first one. It felt like they forced it too much.

First half is better than the second half but this is probably still the best horror franchise since Scream.

Resident Cheap Arse
Not a bad watch, but nowhere near as good as the first.
Unfortunately it falls into most of the usual sequel traps. Returning characters are exaggerated versions of their previous selves. It re-uses a lot of the style but without the same context it feels out of place and at times just outright stupid
New characters were a mixed bag. Kinda liked the doofus jock, but the other two were kinda nothing.
Melanie gets a much bigger part, but tbh her role was a bit of a let down
Despite most of the returning gang being too over the top, Max was still pretty good and had some of the funnier moments in the film
On the whole, it was serviceable as a horror comedy, but a mere shadow of it's predecessor. The original remains one of the most fun horror-comedies I've seen in the past decade or so. This one... I'm not sure I'll be giving it a rewatch unless I need something on in the background while I work.

Like the fight between the two girls. I don't know what that videogame style was about or how it was supposed to make sense with the fireballs and floating kicks

The whole large and in charge evil girl routine was poorly done. Not a patch on Bee in the first and felt seriously overacted at points
Her tits looked great though

Flexing on the inflatable raft as it is dragged by the speedboat. Giving props to Cole at the end

Interesting. Might throw this on over the weekend. I remember the first one was totally decent.
