The Eye 2 (2004)

A desperate cry for help leaves a young woman with the ability to see ghosts. They’re terrifying, shadowy things that occupy empty spaces and invade the personal space of others when they feel like it.
The story is unconnected to The Eye (2002) but came from the same creative team. The addition of a secondary story running alongside the horror adds a new dimension to the scares. The two halves take a long time to find any kind of synergy, but when they do it gifts the narrative with more emotional depth than the first film had.
Some say it's not as chilling as before, but I disagree; there are moments that scared all seven shades of shit out of me.
