I enjoyed the first 'Sinister' movie, so naturally I was looking forward to the sequel. It soon became clear that 'Sinister 2' was going to adopt the same scare techniques as the original film, namely ghost jump scares and disturbing scenes of murder. Only this time, it was tame in comparison.
The storyline is poor, unimaginative and not particularly engaging. The 'scares' are cheap, predictable and, well, not very scary. I also thought the chemistry between the characters that was so prominent in the original film was lacking. I don't know why, but they seemed to place far less emphasis on character development in 'Sinister 2', which didn't help at all.
A very disappointing sequel to the original 'Sinister', which was a very creepy and strong horror movie.
