I'm not against sequels, in fact occasionally you can find one that is very good and sometimes (*shudder*) even better than the original. This is not better than the original, and in fact I'm deciding whether this might be one of the worst films I have seen this year. The acting is horrendous, almost funny in fact, the plot is as holey as a fishing net, and the characters are ghastly. Not really scary (as in the first film) but just really stupid. The main character, a girl called Stretch (for God's sake don't ask why!) runs around screaming and shrieking with a simplistic look on her face but doesn't seem to appreciate the basic fundamental do's and don'ts of running away from maniacs. She likes hovering around, shouting out 'who's there?' every thirty seconds, tripping herself up on virtually anything and generally making as much noise as possible so that she will be caught. (Do you ever notice in horror films how loudly the characters breathe when they are hiding from their captors? Well she sounds like a warthog with a cold).
