hyped garbage

a film so unique, intoxicating and bizarre that it not only demands another viewing, but is also forgivable as a satirical comedy where the jokes eventually take the back seat.

There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.

An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.

With new horror movies such as Truth or Dare establishing the bottom of the barrel even lower, I don't think it's fair to give it an score bellow average. As for the movie, it has a decent plot and certainly very good acting but, it sort of fails to create a horror setting. The woman is oblivious to everything that's happening with her children which sort of kills the mood, and the ghost children are not scary at all. The ending definitely feels rushed, it happens so fast and it doesn't explain how the boy overpowered his entire family and strapped them as scarecrows. If this part was done in a better way, maybe this movie could have been a hit.

Mom (Shannyn Sossamon) and her twin sons are escaping an abusive husband (Lea Coco) a guy who we want to see die. They move into a house that has child ghosts and snuff films which we get to see early and often. Enter James Ransone, an investigator from the first film, who runs interference from the husband and ghosts.The film doesn't lacks a decent twist ending. They could have left the jerky camera out too. Like most sequels it offers some more explanation and leads into another sequel. If you liked the first film, you should like this one too. 3 1/2 stars.Guide: F-bomb. Implied sex. No nudity.

Modern horror sequels are often failures. I thought that as the first film wasn't great that I wouldn't be as disappointed if this film turned out to be bad. I was wrong, Compared to this, the first instalment was a masterpiece and this made me realise how it was successful at achieving its goals sometimes.'Sinister 2' was quite scary in places. No doubt, the cinema playing the film super loud helped elevate the jump scares though. The creepy depictions of murder in the first film were crazily overdone in this.The screenplay was terrible. The main story was stale and predictable and the characters were unsympathetic and cold.The performances were poor all over this film in particularly the ghost children seemed like they were performing a rubbish school pantomime.Overall, I can't be too surprised with what I thought of this film but, sadly, I can see sequels for this being churned out more and more in the future.

I really enjoyed where they tried to go with the movie. The references to Children Of The Corn were interesting and there were plenty of jumps and scares. The dialogue was cheesy at times and the whole ending could have been avoided by Deputy So and So getting the family out of the house but I was glad to see the father get what he deserved. All in all I enjoyed the movie but the ending left a lot to be desired.
