Sonríe 2

Trivia
Ensuring "the sequel was different from its predecessor meant giving the film a unique look. Parker Finn wanted to depict a "glammy, shiny, very fun pop star's world," but also make it feel "very cold, frigid, threatening and almost alien." This meant avoiding the usual horror settings of cold creepy basements and shadowy attics. Finn said he wanted to find fear, dread and unease in an unexpected environment.

Errores
While the film takes place in New York City, when Skye and Gemma are driving out of the city to Staten Island, the very last part of the shot is with mountains in the background...clearly upstate NY where the movie was shot.

A very disturbing portrayal of the Smile phenomenon using the pop music scene and celebrity culture as a backdrop. Skye the central character is front and center in this horrifying story that presents layers upon layers of one's life spiraling out of control. We see most of the story from Skye point of view and so the movie does a great job of building empathy for the character in spite of all her moral failings. It also presents some deep themes on the toxic culture of pop stardom. In the movie, Smile takes on many meanings as it also reflects the pressure of showing up and smiling for the cameras when one's mental health is in shambles. Her momager, her assistant and fans all seem reasonable in the chaos yet their actions seem to become instruments of torture. It's so disturbing, Personally I feel like the Skye goes through too much and at the end I was just relieved that the movie was over. If you are into body horror then you would love this. The movie is quite scary but it is more disturbing than it's scary.
