Sinister-elokuvasta tuttu paha henki Bughuul jatkaa levittäytymistään pelottavalla vimmalla. 9-vuotiaat kaksoset Dylan ja Zach Collins (rooleissa oikeat kaksosveljekset Robert ja Dartanian Sloan) ovat muuttaneet äitinsä Courtneyn (Shannyn Sossamon, tv-sarja Wayward Pines) kanssa Illinoisissa sijaitsevaan syrjäiseen maalaistaloon. Se on tarpeeksi kaukana Courtneyn entisestä aviomiehestä Clintistä (Lea Coco), joka on kohdellut lapsia kaltoin. Poikiaan suojeleva äiti ei kuitenkaan tiedä, että kuolema on jo jättänyt merkkinsä taloon. Entinen apulaissheriffi So & So (James Ransone, Sinister) toimii nyt yksityisetsivänä ja saa selville, että perheen piilopirtti on Bughuul-demonin seuraava ilmestymispaikka. So & So tahtoo kostaa kohtaamansa tragedian polttamalla talo maan tasalle ja pysäyttämällä Bughuulin hirmutekojen sarja. Courtneyn ja kaksospojat tavatessaan hän tajuaa, että hänen on autettava heitä ennen kuin voi toteuttaa suunnitelmansa. Courtney tai So & So eivät kuitenkaan tiedä, että Bughuulin aavelapset ovat jo järkyttäneet Dylania kotitekoisilla kaitafilmeillään, jotka ovat toinen toistaan kammottavampia... (Finnkino)

After the success of the first one, the hacks at Blumhouse Productions (Jessabelle, Visions, Dark Skies, and similar shit) took the brand in hand and created the exact same generic horror product they specialize in. That is to say, stupid cheap jump-scares (including the fact that the last shot is a jump-scare (a stupid, cheap one)), children, a broken family, an isolated house, and most importantly, the inability to evoke any emotion beyond the very second that the scene takes place. It's watchable, there are a few ideas here too, and perhaps the screenwriter's efforts to somehow cobble it together from the last installment are to be appreciated, but prepare yourself for not knowing you've seen it in a week's time.

Now I know exactly what it looks like when a classic ghost movie gets shot like a classic horror movie. Awful, cheap and lacking in atmosphere. The premise is clear – that hasn’t really changed since the first one, but the main focus here are these 15-year-old brothers who have absolutely no logic to them. It makes you wonder whether this movie tries to ride the recent wave of 1980s horrors look-alikes like It or Stranger Things, but apart from these two boys, nothing else is there. So you just have to accept the fact that this movie is a load of bullcrap... A completely useless cheap sequel that is simply benefiting off a brand. To be fair, the tapes had a pretty decent atmosphere. But that was it. ()
Sinister 2 is a classic sequel. Unfortunately. There's almost no invention here; there's just an effort to develop characters in a sufficiently dramatic story that would then justify why the same thing is happening again and why Bagul can kill families on a large scale once more. Mostly just through the projector, but the threat also looms over the family we're following. This is really the only invention that was added to the film. Definitely don't expect the same great scary atmosphere as in the first film. It’s just an effort to build on something good. ()
A modern paraphrase of Children of the Corn with ghosts, which does not work either as a goose-bump inducing horror movie or a shocking slasher flick. It is a similarly steep B-movie decline compared to the original, just as Annabelle was for The Conjuring. ()
I wasn't too impressed with the first part either, so I didn't expect much from the second one. It's decently shot, the tapes are okay, the scares didn't work for me, and the attempts weren't too many (Insidious 3 had about 15 of them!). Bughuul didn't make much of an appearance and the finale was, as in the first part, bland. 55%. ()
