Not surprisingly at all, this low-budget film is pretty cheesy. The whole production is average at best, but it's not completely bad. The story is pretty played out, the effects are subpar, and the acting isn't going to win any awards. That being said, it is apparent the cast and crew actually tried to do the best with what they had to work with and overall it is watchable. I'm saying that it's good, but movies like this are usually only worth a 2 star rating but this one is worth a watch if you feel like turning your mind off for a little bit and enjoying some cheesiness. 4/10

What not to do as an actor, 101.

Too bad the budget and special effects were decent and that the story line had promise.

Wasted on failed character development and even the occasional inability to complete a sentence without a dramatic pause.

It isn't scary, the dialogue is so dumb it's almost funny, and the special effects are non existent. The director really made the trailer look decent and I'm a fool for having spent money to watch this trash. This "spirit" hides in a corner and tries creeping out like a human actor.. I just can't. Please save yourself the time and skip this one. Oh and the plot makes NO logical sense.

It felt exactly like made-for-tv and for younger teens. It started out w/ a few things that are awful: overplucked shiny eyebrows, Uggs, & cheap sweaters. Gah. The scene lighting is also very, very dark at times.

I did like the character of Trevor, the long-haired unintelligent-seeming-but-likeable guy (Aussie Harry Hains), and it was on the refreshing side to have a middle-aged mom be pretty involved along the way, without getting mocked or sidelined immediately. Also, her hair always looked well-coiffed. :D

Sometimes the acting (aaaand direction) wasn't the greatest, but at least the characters weren't made fully unpleasant for drama's sake. Except the cop, he was No. Fun.

The writing isn't so hot, either: "She can see the occult." Weird phrasing. This occult, that occult, the other occult over there? "Institute patients" gets called crazy, waaay too many times. How low brow and sh!tty. }:( There's too much repetition and exposition of pretty basic ideas, and little payoff as far as horror goes.

Total waste of time. Low budget, horrific acting. My daughters middle school drama class puts on a better performance. I am shocked how bad this is.

At no point in this movie did I ever feel a single shred of tension. Everything was so poorly written that any potential scares were telegraphed far ahead of time, and the characters were so flat and paper-thin I had no investment in a single one of them. I actually kind of forgot it was on because I was doing other things while it played.

The story could have been decent but much of the acting was horrible. The male characters were the worst.

Awful movie. Bad acting and an even worse script. Bargain basement B movie at its best.

The CGI was terrible compared to the original, and without the right Jordan, Larry just wasn't the same. No offense to Laura, she did pretty great, this is just a role for Alix, and without her everyone's portrayals seemed lacking. As a fan of AHaSF, this plot line was mediocre at best, and I was really looking forward to it... but mediocre is the best I can give it.

In this Sequel we have a continuation from the original "A Haunting at Silver Falls" though I feel if all original cast could have returned then it would have been better but I maybe wrong this film had a great story to it and had as good a plot if not a better one. There is much going on and I feel that there is a possibility for a third installment but we will have to wait and see. So if I have to speak on my review on a simple statement I would say actors did good playing off one another and the added characters front he first filled in the void for those that they didn't have in this one and the way they still keep the bond that was made in first alive in the second one I felt added a little more to the story so well done once again would have give a 10/10 but did not have the original cast return so had to dock on that sorry. But as alway you watch it and let us know your thoughts.
