I hate movies like this. It's a film, shot documentary style, with no-name actors who live in a house and just had an addition of a new-born baby boy. Meanwhile, there is this paranormal force that keeps disrupting their lives and seems to want something. Throughout the film, they try to figure out what it wants.
It's a very creepy movie. There is no music to hint to you when the scary parts are--which kind of makes it even more scary! The storyline is decent, and the acting (considering they are all unknown actors) is pretty good actually. Granted, I haven't seen the first one (and probably never will), so I can't offer a valid comparison. Though, many other critics liked this one a lot compared to the first one. Either way, I'm not the type of person to grade a movie based on comparison to the first one.
The story isn't terribly original in the scary movie genre, but it will still keep you guessing and wanting to know what happens next. I still will never watch this movie again though.
Overall Grade: B-
