From TMDB usersAs far as improbable sequels go, "Black Phone 2" isn't too bad. Revive a deceased bad guy you would have thought was done with and craft a tale that feels somewhat like the first film, blended with an almost "Nightmare on Elm Street" premise. I have to say these elements combined with a dash of nostalgia from the 80's works, quite well. Sure its not A grade horror but its still creative, creepy and above all, entertaining. In summary, a not unfamiliar but still well crafted tale of revenge from beyond the grave. Worth a look.
**One of the best horror sequels that will go down as an instant classic in a couple of years** I already feel like this film doesn't get enough praise for blending multiple horror franchises together, but still delivering something brand new that fits in the same world as the original film. It takes the classic camp setting but sets it in a blizzard (Friday The 13th meets The Shining). It explores dreams, the spiritual realm and the afterlife (A Nightmare On Elm Street meets Insidious meets Poltergeist). The story and tone are also much more in line with modern storytelling (Terrifier meets Hereditary). The soundtrack is also incredibly retro with a hint of child-like wonder. (Sinister meets Five Nights At Freddy's). I generally cannot express how well it all blends together to deliver a realistic portrayal of a spirit that escaped from hell. If you think The Grabber is just a Freddy Krueger rip-off, then you completely missed the point of the film.
