I would say that this movie is slightly better than the previous one, but this one is more filled with a lot of spooky stuff that you can expect from a good horror movie. The plot didn't have much difference, it was still filled with a lot of mystery about the cult itself and left us with more questions and theories. They definitely saving something big for the next one. I'm surprised when they somehow connect the story with a real-life history, that's just a smart move by Joko Anwar.
The technical aspects of this movie are top-notch for an Indonesian horror movie and superior than the first one. I still can't get over how beautiful the cinematography is, especially for the exterior shots. And the production design is great as well, we got traveled back to the 80s.
My favorite part is the moment leading up to the elevator accident, there were so many things going on, and the music that plays along with it makes the moment very chaotic and intense.
