IT'S SO BAD.

Glad I'm not the only one, it basically fucks up the first movie in the process, plus a lot of shit just doesn't add up. I have no idea how they will pull off a third.
how did it fuck up the first movie? it was pretty obvious from the get go it was going to be a series...

I just liked the air of mystery in the first, the demons motives were unknown, the back story about deals with demons, first born sons etc takes this away. There's also a fair few contradictions.
I don't recall saying that I wasn't aware that they planned to make a series anywhere though but feel free to correct me if you so wish.

what contradictions though? while neither are the best movies, it's definitely a welcome change of pace for the usual tripe hollywood tries to pass off as horror nowadays.

I'm not gonna bother with Paranormal Activity 2. Saw the first and liked it, but it's defo not a film where a sequel would work. Like Blair Witch.

A neat little story, very fun to watch. Set design, wardrobe, and cinematography are pretty nice, too.

Honestly didn't know it was a remake lol the plot was definitely captivating though, so I suppose that goes to the coens' credit.

Suckerpunch, just watched this instead of working on a tune (sorry bloggers).... what a bunch of nonsense.

It was like watching a male nerd's wet dream the night after he watched the movie Inception... 5/10

Splice. Could have been great but ended up being terrible.

Easily the worst piece of shit I have ever seen, but I was too high to bother to turn it off.

Splice was a dope flick but the last ten minutes absolutely ruined the whole movie.
