I didn't expect greatness, and I didn't get greatness. But the film is good, and I enjoyed it a lot better than the outrageously dull original. At least this one has its share of thrills and chills. The nosebleed sequence is certainly one to be remembered. Coming from a jaded movie fan, that scene really creeped me out. The plot is nothing original, and there are no real surprises. The characters, on the other hand, are semi-interesting. The acting is far from Oscar-caliber, yet at the same time it's pretty decent. I always feel that if you're not intending to make a first-class horror movie, you may as well go for camp. This sequel did not go that campy route, but it still works. The scene where the old lady in an electronic wheelchair came flying through the window of a bingo hall is probably intended to be scary or creepy, but it made me laugh my head off. Since I was so disappointed with the first movie (which was the equivalent of watching paint dry) I was even more impressed with this sequel. Plus, that Christie Clark is a real cutie.
