Just got back from it. Anyone else see it yet? It wasn't all that bad, but I'd suggest waiting for a rental/PPV. The acting was honestly very impressive. Reynold's did a great job IMO. The movie seemed to go off on subplots that was not in the original which I was not a fan of, and during the whole movie it gave me the impression that they were trying TOO hard to scare you. The lil girl wasn't scary and the guy that was wasn't even shown much. Oh well, Hollywood can't get it right these days so why should this be better? :p Decent movie with great acting... worth a rent.

    Maybe I should have more than zero interest in seeing this... but I don't.

    The book was awful (had it said, "What else could be the explanation?", one more time...).

    The first movie was a waste.

    If at first you don't succeed, resubmit the script?
    More later,

    That does not bode well. Pointless subplots in a 90 minute horror film? Sounds like a bad idea to me.
