I must admit I didn't expect this to be amazing. I really liked the first one, it was creepy, different & kept you on your toes. I thought this would fall flat on it's face to be honest, but it didn't. It stayed true to the first film & has kept it's viewers guessing with the intriguing back story. I don't agree with most other reviews that it is superior to the first. I thought there was far too much blood & guts in this one which wasn't necessarily needed, it detracted from the creepiness which was what made the first film so effective. I'm not sure whether this is supposed to be a sequel or a prequel but I hope there will be a V/H/S/3 to carry on with the back story, I just hope that this series of films doesn't turn into a gore-fest & lose it's spookiness like lot's of other horror series do. Gore is easy & lazy, it takes real imagination & talent to creep out your audience without the use of blood & guts.
