Nonureva Really Surprised!

Acensbart Excellent but underrated film

ThedevilChoose When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.

Humaira Grant It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.

Alizée Pouiol This comment is not about rating the movie. I think there is a huge problem with the parent's guide concerning the "sex and nudity" part. This is absolutely not appropriate for young people. So people must know before seeing this film that barely after starting the movie, we can hear a lot of sex references (teen talk), we see a naked giant doll with teen pretending to do sex with it, and a guy watching pornographic videos on his computer.

ahmdgllil I understand why people could hate this film. It's a little dumb sometimes, and some scenes make no sense from a psychological point of view.But one thing about it greatly surprised me : it's the reflection it gives us about its predecessor. And it does this so well that it completely blurs the line between fiction and reality, in a way that would keep you intrigued until the end, and beyond.I've rarely seen one going this further before.In a few words : weak start, less amateurish than the first one, decent special effects, criticism of itself and its genre, and more importantly, the feeling of being lost between truth and lie, between fiction and reality.

GL84 Obsessed with the original movie, a film student and his friends find the sanitarium used for the first film and try to shoot a documentary there only to find the events that were portrayed may not have been faked.Overall this one was a massive disappointment without a whole lot to really like about it. What it does get right and enjoyable is the scenes within the sanitarium as they're searching around for their film which is just about as impressive as the scenes in the original. Taking full advantage of the same setting and a lot of the same conditions as before which again results in a truly creepy and chilling atmosphere that's perfectly suited for such a movie, this one manages to pile up a rather respectable amount of time showing them running through the facility and encountering all manners of ghosts and demonic figures that go chasing them inside the lengthy darkened hallways or in the various rooms throughout here. From the bathtub encounter to the dimensional portals that show up throughout the facility that prevents them from exiting or accessing specific parts of the location to the numerous scenes of the ghosts turning their full attention to them popping out of nowhere makes for some rather impressive times here since all of these work rather well. Still, for as fun as these scenes are even they become part of the problem here as these tend to come off like retreads of the original. There's no real change-up between these and what happened before, it's just a different set of victims that comes off that way which in the end diminishes their scare factor by being so similar and familiar. Likewise, the fact that this one just takes forever to get to the sanitarium to begin with is another mark since it focuses so heavily on his obsession and tracking down the clues that it really all could've been done in one sequence where he presents all of the research to the team instead of following him around doing the investigating which severely limits the amount of time spent being scared by the ghosts lurking within that they really come off in just one small section of the film and don't really play a part elsewhere here. Finally, the film's final half is where it really loses it by throwing in a series of fantasy-related set-pieces and wholly flawed logic that is not only entirely unbelievable anyway but merely presents itself simply to keep them in danger a little while longer and pad the film out even more. All told, these here keep this one way down compared to the original.Rated R: Graphic Language and Violence.

851222 Greetings from Lithuania."Grave Encounters" 2 (2012) is a follow up to great horror flick "Grave Encounters". I loved the first part, so i really wanted to check this sequel. Unfortunately, this is not as good as the first part, but i kinda liked it and mainly because i loved first movie. Grave Encounters 2 is definitely for those who loved first picture, if didn't - don't even bother with the sequel. It has some crazy and fantasy style ending, not much of horror, more of nonsense to be honest. Acting was just OK, but nothing memorable.Overall, if you really liked first part, you can try and check this one, you can even like it, but i think it's a sequel for die hard fans of first movie.
