The Story
A family with a newborn baby starts noticing something isn’t right in their home, and sets up security cameras to figure out what’s going on before things get worse.
Verdict
I went into this one expecting a cash-grab sequel and came out impressed. It doesn’t have the rawness of the original, but it does something smart by widening the story rather than just repeating it. I liked how the security-camera setup gave the film more angles to work with than the first one had. Not as tight as its predecessor, but a genuinely solid follow-up in my book.
