We all know that «horror» is a very vide genre. First and foremost: this movie is not scary. You will not go the bed scared after watching this. You will not have to check under your bed or in your closet before going to sleep. I, myself prefer jump scares and evil spirits. This movie is just gross. It's creepy and gross. I had high hopes because of the IMDb score. But this one disappointed. It was slightly artistic, it did not save the movie, but without it, I would have rated it a two. I kept thinking: «what kind of creepy and weird person would even think of putting these kinds of scenes in a movie?» so yeah. Not a movie for me. Will not recommend to anyone.
Nothing wrong with this movie. It lives up to the first one, but delivers a whole new story on the origin of Esther. It could have gone a little deeper so we'd know more about her dark past, how she came to be this way. But I was entertained all throughout the movie. I consider myself a movie buff and I'm particularly into the horror genre. Granted it wasn't that scary, but definitely something to watch on a Friday evening. I think the actors were all right. The brother was too stereotypically the American despot big brother, and the father wasn't that "believable" as a father. But the mother, who let's face it, had a bigger impact on the story, was great. I loved the plot twist and so will you. People expect special effects up the wazo these days, just enjoy this thriller-horrer for what it is. Not as good as number one, but still kinda cool.
This movie is trying to be intellectual, spiritual and mystical. But the story is just the same as any other thriller if this sort. I think the movie has gotten good reviews because a lot of people are fans of the main actress. This isn't a horror movie, it isn't really a thriller either. It's more of a drama film. Acting was ok throughout the movie. But the plot had a lot of wholes. It just felt like the movie was trying to be something it's not. I wouldn't waste my time on this.
