    Storyline

    Edit

    Did you know

    Edit
    • Trivia
      The rural farmhouse and cornfield setting was chosen because Sinister 2 is an homage to Stephen King's "Children of the Corn".
    • Goofs
      (at around 1h 22 mins) After leaving his car in the cornfield, the family runs into the house. Outside the burning house the car appears in the driveway.
    • Quotes

      Ex-Deputy So & So: That voice on the radio. What does it mean?

      Dr. Stomberg: It's Norwegian. She says, 'Quiet. Bughuul can't hear me over your yelling, Mom.'

    • Crazy credits
      At the end of the credits, you can hear static immediately followed by a short tune of a child playing a piano. Similar to the piece heard on the Ham Radio during the movie.

    Dull, and Not Scary
    Sinister 2 is dumb, clichéd, and worst of all not scary. What made Sinister good, was that it capitalized on it's opportunities to scare, and gave the audience what it wanted, horror. Sinister 2 abandons the approach of the first film, and looses all horror, besides the few jump scares, the film isn't even remotely scary. The lack of horror, and poor acting, leads to the film being very dull. The characters are underdeveloped, the film falls back on horror clichés, the story lacks any intelligence or depth, and there's almost no humor. So in the end, Sinister 2 is a dumb, dull, clichéd, sequel that completely abandons the things the original film did well, most importantly the horror.
