Featured review
Mostly a logically continuation that works well
It's after the first movie and the police suspects Josh Lambert (Patrick Wilson) of killing the medium Elise Rainier. The police interrogates his wife Renai (Rose Byrne) about the night. Dalton seems to be normal but things are not right at home. It turns out that back in 1986, Elise had interviewed Josh, and Specs and Tucker rediscover the taped interview. Mother Lorraine (Barbara Hershey) sees a vision and everybody suspects there is a spirit. Josh refuses to acknowledge any of it except he is talking to an unseen person.
This one misses Dalton in danger. Heck the kid is on the poster in the first one. There is something about a child in danger which raises the tension. That's why the best scene is the one with Dalton and the tin cans. When the string gets taut, that's a horror scene that I haven't seen before. It is a beautiful setup as if something is about to be pulled out of the closet. Patrick Wilson is great when he makes the switch. He's just as capable playing either side. The sequel follows logically from the original and works well for the most part. The other world is fascinating and very satisfying.
