When you step back and analyze it, by sheer definition this movie should never had been made. Seems the original The Last Exorcism would have signaled that indeed, number 2 would not be needed. But this is number 2 alright.
First off, this is horrible. It is he sequel to the 2010 original that I don't remember being this bad. Ashley Bell stars again as Nell who is still being pursued by this horrible demon and wants to pro-create with her. As it is revealed in this sequel, the demon has a deep love for her. If it comes to be that they do procreate "everyone will die."
This is a great example of a movie that is about 90 minutes long, and absolutely nothing happens. This is not scary, this is not compelling, this is not anything at all except bad. A very poor script, with mediocre at best acting. No special effects that make any difference, and a wimpy, wimpy approach that clearly goes way out of it's way to maintain a PG-13 rating. That of course, is to ensure that middle school kids can go to this movie and make same dough. Mix it all up and what do you have? A silly, watered down piece of garbage that middle school kids can go to, but won't and if they do, won't be scared or even entertained in the slightest. There is no reason to go, rent, borrow, or pay-per-view this movie - ever!
Makes me wonder about movies like this. Any film maker knows this is horrible the minute the copies go out in the UPS truck. Seeing how the average movie is about 40 million to make how does this kind of movie really make it out of the studio? This first weekend out is always the biggest, and this brought in a measly 8 million last weekend. And there is not much hope as we move on to expand on those numbers. Yeah rentals down the line, I get it, but everyone on earth better rent it. But they won't. This is terrible, and nothing can save it.
The Last Exorcism 2. Honestly, I can't say one good thing about this movie.
