Director James Wan & writer Leigh Whannell reunite for the sequel to their insanely scary 2011 sleeper hit Insidious.
Chapter 2 picks up shortly after the events of the first film so the scares start up so soon it gives the viewer next to no to time to familiarize themselves with the setting or the atmosphere and detracts from the terror quite significantly. Instead, it relies on cheap, yet effective, jump scares that are almost immediately forgotten about.
It's cheap, predictable, silly and immensely disappointing compared to the first film.
Oh well...at least Wan had The Conjuring this year.
