    • Goofs
      When Charlie's baby is being born, you can see there is no umbilical cord. EDIT: There are two simple explanations for the missing umbilical cord: First, there is a medical term for babies born without an umbilical cord, it's called omphalocele - a birth defect of the abdominal (belly) wall. Second, since the child was never supposed to exist, this could be intentional because the child is an abomination..

      Michael: You gave Him what he asked for. I gave Him what He needed.

    "Guilty" pleasure

    Enjoying this movie might enrage God more than anything that happens in it .. but seriously though (and hopefully you are not offended), this movie is illogical and has quite a few clichés going for it. You might see where it is going (or "staying" if you will) and you might not like quite a few reveals or the ending. But the good thing about it is, you can sit back and enjoy it, without having to think about certain story related problems or continuity and other stuff.

    Of course if you were to use your brain while watching this, one of the things you'd notice, is the fact that Dennis Quaid seems to have a bad choice of movie roles lately. "Bad" if you consider what he is capable of and what he ends up playing (this might actually take under 10% of his abilities to pull it off). But then again, you shouldn't care. You also shouldn't care too much about cardboard cut outs presented as "characters". But if you do, this is were I warned you. Which is more of a warning then someone else gave before unleashing ... but you know the rest or are about to see the rest.

    The Prophecy is still the better movie (first one), but for a quick and fun movie, you can always rely on the action on hand here (which is shot very nicely)
