The Doll 2

The Doll 2 is a hardly passable derivative horror film. Frankly, I don't think my friends and I were scared at all when we were watching it. The team behind this has a lot to work on and the first thing they should start with is their audio. One doesn't simply keep everything loud all the time and exclude ambient sound for re-recording.

Negative: Awful movie, don't know whats inside the director mind. Out of the bat tons of exposition dialog shove into viewer throat. Poor dialog delivery by most actor & actress. The writers don't know how logic and simple physic works especially how doors works. Cheap jump scares without build-up and suspense. Very dumb, idiotic and take them-self too seriously.

Positive: Luna Maya acting was good. Most of the camera works when they a serve purpose with intention is good.

They recycled a lot of things from the first movie, as all sequels do. But the history here is more cohesive, although still there's a lot of scenes just to pad out and make the film longer. All in all, I found it better than the original and a good option to whom wants some chills and scares.

In my opinion the movie was terrifying at the end! I'm gonna get nightmares tonight ngl... however the noises were a bit too much...

This sets off where the first movie stopped. And if you have seen it, you know there is more to be had. Even if you haven't seen it (the movie works don't worry), you get in there really fast. And comparisons I did to the Conjuring (or rather Annabelle) universe are even more front and center now.

Don't get me wrong, this still has its own flavor - yet the cliches will be there. And the blood is definitely going to be there. Nothing for the faint of hearted for sure. Cliches and other things will annoy you, but you have been warned so don't moan about it after ...
