They tried to add more humour into this movie using Specs and Tucker and getting them to hit on girls years younger than them. Instead of being comedic, it gave off a predatory vibe and was quite awkward and sad to watch. Also, there was a lot of plot convenience such as the younger girl also being able to go into the Further to save Elise and how easily Elise killed the demon that was supposed to be "really powerful" yet a convenient lamp killed it literally a second. There were also a lot of injuries that should have incurred more damage to their respective characters yet again for plot convenience that doesn't happen. Finally, it wasn't scary whatsoever. I felt in this film, they had run out of ideas and had resorted to cliche horror tactics and produced a 100 minute monstrosity that'll bore rather than scare.
