A Haunting at Silver Falls 2

The story could have been decent but much of the acting was horrible. The male characters were the worst.

The CGI was terrible compared to the original, and without the right Jordan, Larry just wasn't the same. No offense to Laura, she did pretty great, this is just a role for Alix, and without her everyone's portrayals seemed lacking. As a fan of AHaSF, this plot line was mediocre at best, and I was really looking forward to it... but mediocre is the best I can give it.

Total waste of time. Low budget, horrific acting. My daughters middle school drama class puts on a better performance. I am shocked how bad this is.

It felt exactly like made-for-tv and for younger teens. It started out w/ a few things that are awful: overplucked shiny eyebrows, Uggs, & cheap sweaters. Gah. The scene lighting is also very, very dark at times.

I did like the character of Trevor, the long-haired unintelligent-seeming-but-likeable guy (Aussie Harry Hains), and it was on the refreshing side to have a middle-aged mom be pretty involved along the way, without getting mocked or sidelined immediately. Also, her hair always looked well-coiffed. :D

Sometimes the acting (aaaand direction) wasn't the greatest, but at least the characters weren't made fully unpleasant for drama's sake. Except the cop, he was No. Fun.

The writing isn't so hot, either: "She can see the occult." Weird phrasing. This occult, that occult, the other occult over there? "Institute patients" gets called crazy, waaay too many times. How low brow and sh!tty. }:( There's too much repetition and exposition of pretty basic ideas, and little payoff as far as horror goes.

It isn't scary, the dialogue is so dumb it's almost funny, and the special effects are non existent. The director really made the trailer look decent and I'm a fool for having spent money to watch this trash. This "spirit" hides in a corner and tries creeping out like a human actor.. I just can't. Please save yourself the time and skip this one. Oh and the plot makes NO logical sense.
